25 Littre water fed trolley
Hi I am planning on extending my cleaning services to include window cleaning. I fully understand that a 25Littre trolley has limitations to say the least but I am informed I can carry untreated water in 25 litre containers to top up with and this model has water purification fitted on the unit. If any kind window cleaner would like to give me some advice on this purchase I am considering I would be very grateful. The things I am concerned about are how often I would need to change the resin to give some idea I have been told a full recharge is about £25.00? How much water would I use on average to clean a 3 bedroom house? Would this be a good way to get started in water fed pole window cleaning?

thats exactly how i started mate, its ok but really hurts your back after a while, if poss buy 1000ltr ibc fior garage and a 350ltr drum for tour van and ratchet it in, so much easier and so much cheaper for the resin with a reverse osmosis and di in your garage, ive been doing 350ltr a day for last month and still reading nil on tds meter

Hi David, we have been through this on here many times in the past, and so many of us made the mistake of starting out with a trolley and barrels, seriously don't do it!! Get yourself a tank for your van, 400ltrs minimum, attach a pump, get 100 meters of micro bore on a hosereal, a pole, an ro and storage tank at home, and you have yourself a good little system!! :)

Im taking the halfway route. Building myself a trolley. but plan to process the water into a tank in the garage with and RO and DI to polish it. and lug it around in 25 L containers. This is simply logistical as I dont have a van as yet. Once I do I shall be fitting a tank to the van and using the trolley for difficult to reach / park locations

You can always change your trolley into van mount if you want
