any of you clean a house with different poles?as ive made a nice and light short pole from a unger optiloc and was thinking of swapping poles for the bottoms on some houses.

there is a pole holder on my trolley for it as well!

or is it more messing about chopping and changing??do you find it better and less strain esp if you ve got a crap main pole(glass fibre! :)

ill be trying it out tommorrow!

Use a squeegee on the bottoms mate, its far easier. No faffing around with poles.

never done it but i look forward to see how you get on, if you can carry a short pole on the trolley and change quickly then it may make sense

yes i use 2 different poles from my trolley. takes seconds to change over.

mike i do use the squeegee on quite a few lower windows as ive only been wfp for 2 weeks!!im on about the large lower windows where you would normally have to get the single pointer out if you were cleaning traditionally.

stu ill let you know how i get on with it this week!!

Yes I use 2 poles.

I find it a lot easier on my arms, also there are some jobs where I wouldn't be able to clean with my 18ft because of tight spaces.

Personally I've found that using a short pole can save me 5 mins on quite a few jobs. Every little helps

It won't get any quicker than 1 job, 1 pole. You jut have to get the right pole in the 1st place. Once that is done, you will be laughing. And much quicker than you are now.

Same as this man, spot on.

Hi
I always used separate poles for top and bottom when we used Unger Teleplus as our upstairs pole as it was too long for downstairs.
Now I have a CLX22 and can use the same pole for 99% of my work due to its short closed length.
The time saving in not swopping over each time is considerable. Ever since I bought this CLX my daily work rate has increased through time saving.

on most i use one pole 18ft and wouldn`t swap and change unless i can help it.
i only use two poles on jobs where i need a pole to cover 3rd and 4th floors and then change to the lighter smaller pole for the lower floors.
