Window Cleaning Forum / Hose reel Tail Length
« Last post by Scottish Cleaning Service on Today at 01:26:29 pm »
Hi all, I have decided to run with the hotwater hose that came with the reel. Looking for any thoughts on length of 8mm PU hose that we attach to the heavy hotwater hose. The biggest wfp I run with is 47 feet so thinking about 60 feet because I run hoseless. All thoughts welcome.

Our lad drives the 5.3 GMC and jeeeeez.... when that thing starts up its like a mini earthquake. Having ridden in it it feels like their vans are behind what we have back over here, but at 10k+ price difference I'd suck up the hardships  ;D
And to be honest I'd probably give it an exterior 1980s A-Team wrap for nostalgias sake  ;D

I wonder if the reel master will continue to be as good now that they have been bought over by WCW?

I was disappointed with my last pure freedom order when they sent me a different product to what the website showed. A previous hose that I always used and like from pure freedom, was then changed to bog standard window cleaning warehouse hose.
The reels are still manufactured by Adepta Engineering in Grimsby so I don’t see any reason why the quality will be compromised.

Reel arrived and mightily impressed. Looks, well built and will last a long time. All I need to do is put it together and fit it into the van. Will give an update when I begin using it. One thing I have found out in this game is that you have got to buy the best because everything takes a daily pounding.

I really wanted a Transit Custom, like I used to have in the UK.  But they are sooooo expensive here. They start at about £40,000.  The one above was £26,000.

4.3

The other one was a 5.3

If you look at the above pic, to the left, near the yellow sign, there’s another truck. That’s the kind I had before. GMC Sierra.

1200 quid for a reel is ridiculous, they were expensive enough at £450 quid when they first came out.......

I wouldnt pay that, if mine packs in i think i would go back to making my own, i wouldnt mind but its only a motor and chain slapped on a reel.

When the money is coming in then I want to keep it coming in and avoid breakdowns. It makes my work alot easier and I would have to pay tax on £1200 if I keep it. If it lasts for a decade then its money well spent. Will give an update, it arrives today.
I will cancel my plans and wait for your unboxing. Maybe a video?
