joe, with a truck-mount and 2" vac hose you should get hold of a 2" vac tubed wand, might mean getting it from the usa but well worth it, the air howls through them, MUCH better than 1.5", come to think of it, solutions might sell a 2" vac tubed wand?

Thanks for the tip Colin.
Everyone says 2" wand and hose is better then 1.5" wand 2" hose.
Never used a 2" wand but I am positive what is being said is very true - logic really.

Its the same with portables and truckmounts.
You may have a high powered porty and it does a brill job (with the help of a good operator).
Its only when you have a go yourself with a TM do you appreciate the difference.

Back to the 2" wands - yesterday I did 3 beds, bathroom, small landing and small hall (stairs with hand tool obviouusly).
The bedrooms were so small (even the "main" bedroom) it was difficult enough to move a wand around never mind a heavier one (I assume 2" weighs more then 1.5"). Defo a time for the whip hose.

Maybe one day I will go to 2". Thanks

greenie does a 2" vac wand, 4-jets and it's LIGHT, 12" head so it goes anywhere, for me if there is a downside it's the 4-jets, i prefer 2 jets with larger jet sizes, 04's,
