First job with gutter vac today. Got to say I was very impressed with the job. So easy and suction was great. Think I'll push this a bit more now ;D
-
what type u got ?
-
Hope you have the 48ft Tubes - thats where the money is
-
No diy job. Nilfisk vac and gutter sucker carbon poles. I really was impressed. Lots of rubbish up there aswell. Got custie to see on cam and after originally saying he only wanted the front done, decided to go for the back aswell :-)
-
No 30ft at moment. Do you use carbon ones rhinoman? Did you ever got some to do that Santander building In Wolverhampton you asked me for a quote on?
-
What camera are you using Rhine?
-
wireless one with a screen attached to the pole. Great for vision, i even recorded the clean. Sad i know

i find anything over 36' of poles too heavy and unmanageble (and dangerous), i don't know how people manage to safely control the poles at 48', especially when you get big lumps of grass etc stuck on the end.

I didnt get it from here (cant find where I bought it) but this is the same one as what I used. The camera was just a standard 2.4 ghz one off ebay. As for a video dont know how to upload but i can email it if you want?

gutter vacs are spot on at 30 ft on half round gutter which have been regular maintained....owt else I leave it to the lads with machinery who can get better access than me!

Why did you need to do this?
Blockages?

yes gets far less choked up and mainly gives greater suction

Interesting. Where did you get the new hose from incase I find this issue

i already had the 50mm hose and vac with those back breaking metal poles.. ;D
So when I got carbon upgrade I used that 38mm hose on 3 jobs and noticed a big change in lift performance plus I was due vac upgrade at the time and the difference was a lot..
The nilfisk has plenty of power just hope it lasts :)
-
Polarbrite do 50mm hose I think mate.
-
Hi can i asked how you changed the hose, I have the nilfisk T30 and the hose inlet is only so big?
Cheers,
Gordon

I think the t30 inlet diameter 53mm off the top of my head so just make sure your vac cuffs to match the inlet to your vac when ordering..
My 50mm hose was from nick at guttercleaningsystems

Been thinking about doing this - but how do you clear the down pipes?
