Title: Inside Rolls Royce
Post by: Simon Mess on March 23, 2014, 03:42:08 pm: Watched this documentary, it was on channel 4 on Thursday.

Couldn't help but notice the wfp guys at the Dubai Rolls Royce dealership cleaning the outside of the building as well as the windows.

While i am envious of them up to a point, it wouldnt be for me, as i cant really handle the sort of temperature you would have to work in out there :'(

I asked about WFP and he said some places are permanently cleaned due to dust/sand and OCD people.

I saw the documentary. I see he had his pole hose outside of the pole! All that sand and grit YUK lol

Post by: Darranvps on March 24, 2014, 05:39:08 am: I was flown out to Abu Dhabi last November by a company from Doncaster who had just sent over a trailer mounted Pure Freedom 1000 ltr hot system.

The idea being I train up window cleaners how to use the Kit and demonstrate to building managers the benefits of having their windows cleaned with the water fed pole system.

The first thing I noticed was the water in the tank was hot - without needing to switch on the heater - and it cleaned the windows perfectly, I was really impressed with the results.

Other minor problems with the heat in general - the screws on the pump controllers - just kept popping out - the heat was too much for them - the spring loaded type screw just pushed its way through the plastic case.

On my final three day visit a demonstration was arranged - building owners came to us to see the water fed pole in action - I wish that could happen over here - as there was a guy from the Etihad Airport who was extremely interested as well as other people from decent sized buildings.

A few quotations were arranged that morning - hopefully getting some good contracts.

If I was working in the UAE - I would work during the night whenever possible as it is hot, after all it was just a desert a few years ago.
