If you have the money Carbon poles from grippatank are a must they get heavy enough anyway with all the dirt that gets stuck to the side

Grippamax clamped poles (carbon) 24ft x4 poles £325+vat will do houses maybe not industrial stuff, depends where your aiming to go domestic or commercial.
You'll need 5-7mtrs of vac hose 51mm with cuffs for your machine. Tool kit, they do one with x3 suckers for £45ish.
  I got all my stuff from them except the generator which I got for £110 fro eBay.

you can buy full carbon pole very cheap from carbon dealers rather then paying grippers inflated prices

Thanks Susan,

Are you able to tell me the thickness of the carbon fibre wall that will be needed. Have you found anywhere specifically that would do a good deal?
