what other stuff would i need to make it a proper kit?
i was looking at a polarvak but seen they are only 2000 w which probably isnt going to be very powerfull?
cheers for any help and advice.
Also how much would you charge for a semi for gutter cleaning?

IS THAT A 240V VAC ? SRY i DID NOT LOOK TO CLOSE, i THINK THAT IS THE ONE THAT OMNI POLE USED TO USE.

I have there newest one and tbh dont need the third motor for normal houses.

So I would say it would be ok m8

Excellent value at that price when compared to the Omnipole type vacs. Even the 3600w version is over six hundred quid from Dualpumps.

if ur planning on just doing small domestics etc.just use a ladder/ladderstopper/bucket/trowel and a pair of gloves.u could also use a gutter scoop on an extension pole to get over conny roofs.thats what i use for gutter clearing.if u get a few jobs near each other u can make £80 an hour(half hour each at £40 a house!).u can make £400-£500 per day if u can get 10 jobs! ;D ;D
price higher/work harder!

The polarvak is 2400w , the one we had on ebay was a 2000w budget version, our 2400w is made in UK so your later comment about all rebranded chinese was wrong, however im not trying to be like other suppliers by defending ours, im just pointing out the facts!!! and as goes power as ive always said 2400w is plenty, we have now sold quite a few units and no one has had an issue with suction. Speak to Pete simpson at numatic a very clever guy, he will give you the facts on wattage and suction.

The polarVak numatic is made in UK

Omnipole guttervac is Italian and UK parts i went to Omnipole and saw there staff making guttervacs

What's the one with the ISSA sticker on it? Haven't worked out where that comes from.

Does anyone know you get the suction tube from?
or would it be better to attach to a pole?so you get full suction from hose?
like the one in this link because in my opinion looks like it would be a lot better and would then suck straight from the guttering instead of through a tube?
all opinions appreciated.
Also any idea how big a 2 storey house is to the guttering?
And how many metres of hose i would need i was looking at getting 30 metres but now thinking 15 metres would be more than sufficent!
cheers all
