What length pole does everyone think will be enough to reach the highest windows?
Pics 2 and 3 on the slideshow are the ones to look at to see the tallest section.
Cheers for any tips.

Looks as though a 30 or 36 would reach but the pics could be deceiving.

Better pic there. I'd say a 36 would definately reach.

Go 40 then you got some spare.....
-
yep id go with 40 to save your neck hurting, nice an easy clean though, you got a gooseneck as some of the window looked a bit recessed?

have you got a 35 or 40 jonny? your only in runcorn arent you? im just down the road if you need to borrow one to try it out, ive extended my super max up to 50 so you'd have no issues and you could gauge it from that then
-
I used my 40' SLX on that job today and it was plenty ;D
-
best to be safe then sorry mate go for 40 ft.
-
40ft SUPERMAX with carbon gooseneck should do it.
-
Looking at the highest window which goes right up to the roof you could need 50ft pole or more you will need to reach over canopy over entrance doors on one side . Mike

If I was turning up in my van to do this job I would reach for the 35ft pole and expect it to reach.

Cheers for the replies and that offer from Steve m(I might take you up on that)
I was thinking 40 smax , but they seem to be sold out on the Gardiners website.
-
no probs, mine is a 40ft thats been extended so you will definatly reach them plus you will then know what pole you need to buy for the future

Look at the door which will be made up from 2 x 4 ft panels. There are 3 sections the same. Then look at the smaller panels which will be 2ft half panels, there is 3 of these also. Then add an extra 2ft for the frames to be on the safe side, that leaves you with:-
8ft x3 = 24ft
3 x 2ft = 6ft
1 x 2ft
Total 32ft.
We clean a few very similar buildings and use a 36ft pole with no problems.
