move the tap to the brush head ;)

I have taps at the brush head and at the end of the pole hose and the brush head is generally the one I use.
A brush head tap is also very convenient for ground floor work.

IMO aqua-daptors are fantastic.buy one mate.easy control of your water flow.there is also a flow control tap at the brush end for ground floor work.most people like them.

as for pole hose on the outside of the pole.i tried that once and it was a nightmare!!the pole hose gets tangled up around the pole and its awkward when keeping opening and closing down the pole!!

Good video Alex :)

I still wouldn't get rid of my aquadapter though.

Do you need to have a big amount of excess pole hose with this method as when my pole is at full reach my pole hose is only very short , so it would then be lifting up the 8mm hose which would be heavier/pull on the connection?

Thanks for the video. I actually have the extra flow valve fitted to my pole but haven't been using it the way you have demonstrated. Haven't been using wfp for long as you can tell!

Only been using wfp for a month or so now, and already have broke the pole. Was looking on the floor for the flow tap to turn the water off, I had my CLX 27 leant against the wall but I probably didnt have it at a decent angle and the pole went slamming down and smashed the pole socket  >:( >:(

Luckily Gardiners part is only £5.70 delivered.

May get an Aquadaptor now as thats twice this has happened when looking for the flow tap!

That's nowt. I once leant my Brodex aluminium pole against a house and the house fell down!
To be fair, it was a new build and a slightly breezy day.

How have you fitted the push fit valve alex as you have got some o rings either side?
I thought you just pushed the hose in and it locks as im gonna buy one of these before i bother with aquadaptor

 cheers

why on earth do you want to hold the hose all day, same problem as a trigger, mad loop of hose plus snagging on everthing, aqua dapter is designed to overcome this problem!!!
