Title: What do you guys use
Post by: TomSE on June 17, 2013, 09:11:39 pm

To stop your water flow and what would it be best for me to buy.

I have heard and read about aquadapters and triggers but am not sure what is best to buy. I currently use the flow control tap that comes with gardiner poles but would ideally like something that is on or very close to the pole itself.

Thanks
Tom

Hi
I use a flow control tap but I have fitted it next to the brush head. It's much easier to access and never snags. I would like to try an aqua adapter but having bought a light pole not sure if I want to add extra weight to it.

go to srewfix and get a 8mm or a 6mm gas tap and tape it to bottom of pole it works a treat

i have 2 of the new extra light aqua-daptors on my 22 and 25 ft poles.great bit of kit.the weight is hardly noticable.you soon get used to it esp if you use extreme brushes.

very quick and easy to stop/start your water flow.

i have a push fit pole tap on my 40 footer though as i need the pole to be a light as possible on the end at these heights.


best wishes
