Title: Aqua- Dapter Full satisfaction
Post by: boshravie on November 24, 2010, 06:15:40 pm
Well guys I have had my New MK 2 Aqua-Dapter for a week now and we put it to a full use of 7 hours per day, and I am very impress with this new item, and thanks to Paul from Aqua-Dapter to accommodate me in regarding the previous  complain I had about this item, I must say he is very professional in terms of customer service, if he carry on the way he is now, he will be very successful  and I whish him all the best for his new venture.  :)

Well of course its saving the water, imagine you are washing the windows, and customer ring you on your mobile , if you have the old traditional tap system, is so much hassle, but with this item, just pull the water pip and hey presto, in just 2 second, you be surprised, in a daily work, how much water you save  and how easy it is to work with.
I am very happy with it any way, and I am sure all you guys that using the NEW MK2 are as well.

yes, if you tap is on the floor they you have to pick it up, takes longer, if you have a tap on the pole you have the annoying loop of hose to mess around with, or if you have a tap on you belt, then may be as quick but alot more annoying.

I have an aquadapter and i am very happy with it, so simple but so effective i would highly recommended them

my water control switch has gone on my backpack, so just to give you an idea of water flow from the aqua daptor, without it, it is say number 2 setting flow, so not to bad,

I got mk2 last week Dazmond, no sawing,just screw onto my slx using a thread adapter that you have to order along side the mk2 aqua-dapter. To be honest I may as well of got the mk1 and fitted it peramently to my pole as I doubt I will ever remove it anyway.

The Aqua thingy does look very good but got those who actually use one....if you save water how much does you guesstymate you save per day and what would you say it the items plus & minus points?

Cheers
Dave.

did i criticize it , dont think so  . my point was how can it possibly save any more water or be as quick as a tap on a pole . i have my tap positioned so that i work with my thumb or index finger resting on it . dont need to think or look to turn it on or off.

i can see the good point of losing the loop , but i have that sussed now , hope you are still on here in twelve months time using the same aquadapter

Dave -  i reckon to be saving between 80 and 100 ltrs on a full day - was using a full 400 ltrs but now come back with 50 odd ltrs but have 3 more cleans than before.

it is instant - but most of all hassle free, no fumbles for taps or loops in the pipe or lumps stuck,strapped, glued to the pole so both hands are free and you can hold the pole anywhere you like and still instantly turn off the water.

BM - taps are good, just not as good mate  ;)
