Title: Best pole trigger / tap setup?
Post by: mac74 on December 10, 2013, 09:25:05 pm
Hello all, im toying with the idea of trying a trigger or tap out after my wc mate says they are great. I was looking at the unger hi flow trigger as u can take them on and off fast? I know the pro's but whats the con's? I currently use a tap on the end of the hose reel and controller setup, which is good, and all ive known? BUT i was thinking on certain areas it would be handy saving water / travel back refill times ect. Cheers m

Has to be an aqua dapter.

Also the unger tap is utter *&^%$&*&^!!! it lasted me a whole 2 days before i ripped it off and stamped on it like a kid.

Aqua tap is also worth a shout :)

Basic trigger from Cleaning Spot is about £23 and works very well.

Ok cheers 4 the above, i use a slx 18 with a vikan sill brush, (heavy brush but great). The aqau adaptor sounds good but extra weight, what is the aqua daptor? is that a twist off at the brush head when the pole is down? thanks m

if you buy an aqua-daptor mk3 XL and a gardiners sill brush itll be LIGHTER than using a vikan brush without an aqua-daptor and youll have a mega easy way of controlling your water flow.

my set up is even lighter.extreme 25 with carbon gooseneck,AD and extreme brush.awesome combo.


best wishes
