Title: Ionic demonstration
Post by: windowcleaninginessex.co.uk on May 21, 2009, 03:55:14 pm
Hi, i have ionics coming next week to do demonstration. I know there are not cheap but i think they are one of the best makes of systems.

Also have to get new van as at moment only have an astravan, thats where i need help, found a company in Buckinghamshire called Vehicle Fleet Management Ltd ( http://www.vehiclefleetmanagement-uk.co.uk/ ) Anyone dealt with this company before i go and spend a few pounds or anyone know of good vans sales in Essex where i am based
Thanks
Darren

If you going for the ionics system brand new they were ( i dont know if they still are) also doing deals with vans too. Obviously would have a warranty.

Phone Ionics to find out.

I would definitely wait till Gardiners new system is one the market, if only to compare.

Ionics is highly overrated still in my opinion. The only thing they have got going for their systems is the crashtest. Apart from that, pure water is pure water.

I have spoke to pure freedom ( nice people ), But its about 4 1/2 hour drive from mine to their place, but they are one of the cheapest

Pay me half the difference between the ionics system and pure freedom on cost and I will personally drive to get your van and deliver it back, I would not mind driving for a couple of grand for a days work. I have a pure freedom set up in one of my vans, they do what they are meant to and are not expensive to maintain, where another market leader is highly expensive for certain items you have to buy from them ie resin vessals

If the difference in price is that much, i might as well drive up to Pure Freedom and take wife and kids to sunny Grimsby too for a couple of days

well worth the drive Darren
They are a good relyable system easy and cheap to maintain.
They will listen to you and wont sell you what you dont need, if you go explane what sort of window work you will be doing
what van you will be haveing and they will advise you what size tank you need.
as for safety cannot be more happy the way my system was fiitted, the only way that tank will move is when they take it out and put it in my next van LOL
if you need any training they can arange for you to go with a city and guild trained window cleaner for the day free of charge.
some thing they dident do when I had mine fitted by them great guys very help full im very satisfied with their after service they got me up and running and ready for work the next day.
Go and have a look you wont be disapointed 10 out of 10 for me
happy WFP hunting

PS if you need a van ask them they may be able to help

Hi,
No problems with the van. It was delivered to me looking like new. New ply lining kit tyres and full service history. In 2.5 years it's had 4 tyres and front brake pads.

Cheers jason

They are a vehicle leasing company and sell vans. My van came with the remainder of the manufacturers warrenty. At the time it was six months old and 4 grand cheaper than a new van. Ps ring them and haggle they will do a deal.
