Title: Swivel Brush
Post by: H h20 on February 28, 2006, 05:01:55 pm: Iv`e been testing my swivel brush today and it works a treat ;D
i was even able to stand in one place and clean 4 windows,the head moves from side to side with ease and you adjust the angle up or down with your adjustable neck,it is perfect for getting at windows above garages and conservatorys with ease and should be good for getting between bars on 2 and 3 storey houses but this i have`nt yet tried,Gaz

The water is fed through the jets in the brush,it works great,so when you are reaching a window on the side of a house over a garage you can still have the brush sitting straight with pole on an angle,i`ll get some pics done this week while im using it,Gaz

Post by: Spoonbill1970 on March 04, 2006, 04:26:15 pm: Hi Gaz,

Looks good. And those frames...shiny!

Wondered how it is on your back and shoulder muscles?
Reason I ask is that I've been struggling a bit when poling windows above conservatory roofs, as the angle that the pole needs to be held at seems to cause excessive strain on the muscles.

Is it easier on the muscles or do you find it makes no difference?

Thanks in advance,

Jonathan (Getting old!)

How much control would you have if working on a window with a vent above it like the one in the photo :-\

cheers john
Title: Re: Swivel Brush
Post by: H h20 on March 04, 2006, 06:39:31 pm: Hi Jonathan,it is easier to control so you don`t struggle as much to get the brush to sit straight because of the swivel action so you are`nt putting as much strain on your muscles, but also the brushes i use are light anyway,hope this helps.

John,it is very easy to work on a window with vents as you have much better control to get the brush to sit straight, so you don`t have the brush on an awkward angle and you are not getting water in the vents,well it works for me anyway ;D,Gaz

Post by: mrfoo77 on March 04, 2006, 08:08:21 pm: Hi Gaz, really interested in these salmon brushes. I've got 3 poles with Vikan brushes and would like to change them all over. Like the sound of bristles that don't hold dirt. Could you e-mail me details of what parts i'd need to convert and how much.
Cheers, Matt.

Post by: Count Phil on March 05, 2006, 06:00:13 pm: Your brushes look the same sort of shape as the ionics ones I used to use. I swapped them to vikan because they splay whereas the ionics ones sometimes folded over so you didn't get a good surface coverage. Do yours splay? cos I don't like the way I have to keep washing out the vikan. Another thing, the vikan does do a brilliant job of frames, much better than the ionics, how do yours cope?

Also could you let me know how much?

Thanks Gaz,

Take it you sell these?
I've a few windows above conservatories where this would be ideal. How easy to fix onto an Unger telepole?
Any chance you could mail me with price?

Thanks

Post by: stevef on March 09, 2006, 04:56:32 pm: I now have two of these brushes which replace my ionic ones(not swivel)
I am very happy with them, the jets are a little smaller than ionic's and tend to squirt the water onto the glass not dribble it on. the bristles aer a little softer but today coped well with a dirty initial clean today. and the price aint bad either!
