These have been available as old as time. A little clip next to it to hang the hose and that’s what people used....many years ago.
Nowadays though with a univalve everyone seems to just coil the hose up In your hand and walk round the property. Either way you’ve got trailing hoses that can snag, but Atleast this way it’s not attached to your hip.
Hman......... please don’t think people are being rude........ it’s just your ideas are all
So old. In the uk the wfp is leaps and strides above most countries id say.
It’s a different market. We sometimes have to clean 30 properties a day on a monthly frequency. Efficiency is key, we have our set ups that fastest way we can think of, and it doesn’t match up to places like America or Australia where you clean properties a few times a year at most.

It appears that you didn't even watch the video.
As it had nothing to the water switch.
And have heard many people on this forum complaining that there pole hose are always under feet when they have brought there pole down to use at lower level.
This address this.
Might help if you check video out first.
-
Why? Do you make money from every hit?
-
I try to keep all the hose behind me or to my right, being right handed.
-
Just watched it. It’s crap.
I was hoping you’d invented hoseless wfp or something. ::)roll
-

Yes as you can see that is where pole hose in coiled.(Right hand side)
And the main hose is behind on the belt.
But of cause if you life handed you can swap it around.
-
Yeh but i meant the hose on the floor.
It’s an awful idea Herman. Just being honest. Sorry.

YEP knew not everyone would think it's a good idea.
And that's ok too.
This is also for the others that has had problems relating to this.
Anyway everything has it pro and cons. ;)
-
I hope that one day you invent something that makes you a millionaire.
This isn't it.

You could be right.
HAHA Well you never know unless you try.
-
If anything you are more likely to trip over and get snagged up using this than you are using nothing.
-
AND FOR THE NEXT YOU BEAUT IDEA WILL BE ;)
PLOAB
Pole Lifter On A Belt.

Did your mum bathe you in beer as a child?
Bet you were Fostered.
-
You trippin' H Man? 🤣
-
With respect, even after watching the video I can't see the advantage. That hose hanging on my waist would be more of a hindrance and you would still have hose behind you on the floor.
The biggest reduction to tripping over the hose for me came when I started using the Exceed univalve and later the Gardiner twist valve and getting rid of the excess hose at my feet caused by having a tap strapped to my pole or belt when working on ground level windows.

Yes you may believe this.
This what people were saying when people like Henry Unger first started showing there enervator ideas way back in 1964.
-
No it wasn't Herman - sorry but you need to go get a life, then invent something that's not on the market AND is genuinely useful
You really waste your time hear, not for what you do but your total lack of understanding your potential customer base, what you do is not required, or wanted, just take it on board without all the silly justifications

Telling Herman he’s wrong is like telling griff and soupy that president trump is the best president ever... he just won’t listen.
-
So putting this up for the people here that have this problem.
Know not everyone agrees.
And make excurses why it doesn't work.
But the same people haven't got any ideas to this ether.
There are people that would be interested in this idea out there

Crack on H MAN. Don't let the b******s grind you down.

Hman
Nathan used this idea
Enough said.
-
So appears nearly everyone good at criticizing ideas ,
Anyone can do this.
But how many of those people actually have had created a tool that has help window cleaners that is on the market now??
-
Most of us just concentrate on actually cleaning windows Herman. We’re window cleaners not inventors.
If something useful comes to market that makes the job easier, better and/or quicker then we may be interested.
But most of your ideas up until now have been crap.

I rest my case.

If you want to find other inventors then a window cleaning forum probably isn’t the place to look.
-
You have to laugh -
Human your trying to invent something for window cleaners then when those people point out it’s no good or it’s already on the market you then start criticising them - bizarre to say the least

Yes get that but anyone can google something.
Then say oh look it's been done before so must work the same.
Without knowing whats difference is non even having tried it.
As Simon said,

No in the right place most ideas people say nothing on here.
But they are listening watching.

Maybe Herman's ideas are his inventions. To get us thinking and talking about a product that no one is interested in. Or to think that they are not interested in but end up Googling a similar product and extolling its virtues even if they don't like or use one.
I think that we are being controlled by Herman. He's a marketing plant.

We don't listen to the narrative. We have smelt the coffee and ore not sheeps.
We are the original radicals.

Somewhere to rest a case ................. now there’s an idea! 🤔
-
Gents, I find some of the comments on this thread rude and unnecessary.
I won’t be using the idea Herman is demonstrating, but I wouldn’t insult and criticise him.
His motive was in the right place, to try and help fellow window cleaners.
-
Of cause the other problems this solves.
Is no more dragging your reel hose connection that is connected to the pole hose, over the ground wearing connection and snagging on things.
No more having to replace coupling all the time.
You can have any ON/OFF switch you like on this.
This will aluminate having to get expensive pole tubbing as well.
And finally for the people thinking is going to leak ?
Of cause it will leak if you don't put it on properly (Do a half job)

Could be tricky driving the van though.

It’s not a joke Herman your jokes are the best anyway! I wear a belt I have a tap holster on it, I have a boab connector on it. I never take it off. I don’t want to get half undressed every time I jump into the van wearing your surgical truss.
Buy the right connector and they last for years anyway even when dragged about with no protector.
Most pole hoses won’t coil that tight either particularly at three degrees like it is today. If you want to stop dirt going up the inside of your pole, you could run the pole hose up the outside.
