Title: need new poles (advice needed)
Post by: mike richardson on July 31, 2007, 08:14:18 pm
 been using 3 18ft universal poles for last 12 mnths,

they are about kput now so need new poles any recomendations as to which type are best or most reasonable priced.

has anybody picked up any pole bargains lately,

was thinking about a slightly longer pole cos some jobs are to much for the 18s,i have a 36ft aswell but wud just keep this for the odd jobs,

poles that are lighter wopuld be an anvantage aswell.

If you can afford it go for a carbon fibre pole instead of the g/f
these poles are much lighter and therefore less tiring and stressful on your body

My recommendation is to get a facelift pole from cleantech although they are expensive they are more than worth the money

I have had mine for quite a while now and it is like new still
I would also say get the adapter to fit a different brush as the facelift brush is pants far too heavy and far too bulky for run of the mill domestics

hope this helps

Hi Mike,go for the 34ft carbon facelift you can take sections out and use it as a 24ft pole,you then have the other sections for as and when required.Essentially Pure had 2 left on friday at a discounted price,if i didn`t have one for the price they were up for i would have got one.

ive already got 1 a pole at abt 36ft just gets used on schools etc about once a mnth so was thinking more like 24ft size but 3 of them so we can all use them instead of 18fts, does the tubing go inside or outside of the poles

For the prices look at www.cleantech.co.uk
I am about to order a rectangular vikan for my pole as i use one on my short pole and like it i dont like change so tend to stick to what i know  ;) but there are plenty of other brushes to choose from
Dont forget if you do go for it you will need 2 angle adapters to make a gooseneck

If i were you i`d go for the Hybrid pole,theres lots of different height variations.
