We have a gutter vac company here in Solihull they make specialist stuff for gutter cleaning and get the vacs off us with or without SP.

They are called Dream Team if anyone wants a heads up

All I know mate is it pumps out 135 litres per min. Cost about £60 if that helps. My vac is on 110v but the pump is 240v. Should have got a 110 pump really to plug both into the same generator. The 110v are dearer, I'm just a tight c**t.  ;D

the vac we use is used for a multitude of sins  ;D gutter vacuuming std and also when we are roof cleaning - saves disconnecting downpipes simply block pipes and vac.
Hence m/c needs to pump out water (submersible) only a few proper bits of kit on market expensive unless you make ur own. if uve got the time fine!

we have big numatic 1800 series prob is pump is right at btm of drum keeps getting blocked via debris!
