Get sky vac , with the carbon clamp poles ,

In this case cheap isn’t best option, you want something proven .

I understand ther is cheapers option available, but when it comes to your livelihood you want the best equipment possible,   Your looking at least 2.5k for sky vac with 40ft poles

Gutter vacuum systems are good.

I have had the sky vac atom  for around a year and have done a few gutter cleans a month and found it brilliant.  Personally I would go for the longest reach.

Hello Jay

I’ve done 20+ jobs with sky vac Atom.

I upgraded it with a diy side entry kit
(Which I would not suggest any vac without this)

If you’re domestic only then I’d say
Either

sky vac Atom by Spinaclean with side entry and 7 poles 35 feet

Or GVS Panther
I think the Panther just wins
Because their poles have lager diameter

So better airflow I would think 🤔
But Atom is 100 watts more powerful
Nothing I know

If you’re doing lots of gutter work then GVS
Have 3000 watt and 3600 watt machine’s

Only trouble is a generator for these would be very heavy and expensive

I plug 🔌 into customers electric ⚡️
As Atom is 1600 watts

Heard the odd comments of people blowing fuses at customers house using 3600 watt models
But this could be that they haven’t fully unraveled extension cable (a must if you didn’t know)

If you want to go in the middle
2400 watt grippa vac numatic 50 litre model I think 🤔 (perfect)

Which is where I would go now in hindsight

But grippa Vacs package’s not cheap

Good luck

Meant Grippa vac numatic
Perfect for me domestic.

Also sky vac offers bigger machines obviously but big price difference to GVS
Competition!
