I have a Freedom trolly,the best bit of advise I can give you with a trolly is to get about 10 meters of 6mm hose and a tap for your pole,6mm hoseing will wrap around the handle very easy and it's not bulky,you can fit this to a standard hoselock fitting easily by getting the male connection,this is crucial so that way you don't have to move the trolly every time you need to clean another window and a tap on your pole will save you loads of water because 25 litres don't last long ;)

is that what you need? A 6mm tap?was looking at getting one of them to cut water off after cleaning each window.
-
6mm hoseing or a similar size,I think that size is just right,any WFP supplier will sell the taps/ triggers and the male piece to suit the size of hoseing required

i have a 10 metre retracable air hose reel attached to my purefreedom trolley

cheers mate. ive ordered a push fit control valve from gardiners for my pole hose and i have ordered a adapter for making hoselock connection down to microbore connection - so i can connect a bit of hose like you said.
how long would a 25 litre barrel last for tops only? two houses?

Well,put it this way,when I do my neighbours next door I do mine at the same time,we live in a 3 bedroom semi detached house and her house is joined to us,we have 3 windows at the front and 4 at the back plus 1 landing window and small window and glassdoor at the side,my 25 litres does both houses but it depends on your flow rate,I use fan jets and can be benificial,1st cleans will use more water and as cleans go on you will use less water,try experimenting on your own house ;)
