If you are going to get an extreme pole then put an extreme brush on it.

Doesnt seem much point buying the lightest pole available and putting a brick on it.

I mainly use the 35cm xtreme sill brushes on my  everyday xtreme pole these days. They are the fastest brush IMO once you get used to them. 4 x 1.4mm pencil jets on a high flow gets the job done quicker,easier and more effective.

I would fully expect an SLX pole used every day should last around 3 or 4 years before needing replacing.

I just use xtreme poles and I replace them approx every 2 years (give or take a few months)

Like I said, you’re assuming.

Daz why is that sediment filter so orange ? Reason I’m asking is I’ve used an ro system for 17 years and never had a filter that colour
4 month intervals(sediment and chlorine filters). Same condition as last time.

It’s rust from old metal pipes

My van is 18 years young and I bought those pellets Mike Brewer advertises for £45 for 5. Put them in my tank 10 years ago and can count on one hand how many times my light has came on.

Yesterday and today we were all down helping my mate who owns a garage fill 3 big holes in the garage floor where we removed the car oven from so he can get another 2 ramps fitted. I provided all the tools, Mixer, and kango. Started at 7am and finished for 1pm. We got all the stuff from B&Q because nowhere was open and I used my van 8 times to deliver it but its only 2 miles away. This will give it a week to cure and he will get the ramps fitted in 28 days when fully cured.

My starter motor went a few weeks ago and my mate swapped it over in 20 minutes because he has the 4 ton ramp. It cost me less than £150 for a new one and he did it for free. Turns out he is the handiest mate I have now but as long as we all work as a team and help each other everything just clicks into place.

What I'm trying to say is, if you find or have a mate who is a mechanic then try and hang on to them like me. I started off cleaning his windows for free and still clean them which takes 5 minutes every month. Drop in a box of orange mechanic gloves now and then when discussing how to make our working life easier but it all comes down to being a team player.
