Post by: Ola Normann on August 12, 2010, 01:35:35 pm

Hi, Have some buildings that are 7 floors high.

Have orderd a hot water WFP system, is this okey to work with?

How long pole do you have to have to use it on that high buildings?

on some 7 floor buildings you may be able to reach with a 60 foot pole,  however a 72 foot pole may be needed on others

A general rule of thumb is 10ft per floor.


But as Steve has said, you may get away with 60ft on a modern building but on much older buildings it could be 12ft per floor or more, it also depends upon any obstacles on the ground which you have to work around.
