Cost £482.52

(I'm debating about getting another SLX, but I'd rather have the cheaper CLX, but there doesn't seen to be an 18 foot one in stock.  )

Anyway, any comments would be welcome before I finalise my purchase, and have I missed anything for a two man set up?

Links are bad.

Links are bad.

The work for me, but they probably don't work for you because they're both on the view cart page before I part with me money! 

[Lee GLS]

link dont work, but the list looks good.

are you plumbing it all in yourself? if so get some of the reiinforced 1/2" hose from gardiners and some jubilee clips to connect the pumps to the tank and then to the reels.

[David Kent @ KentKleen]

Tosh, check out Gardiners new hose reels!!! I will be replacing mine with those when the time comes. No more 'snagging'

[CLEANCARE WC]

what lee said you dont want any nasty garden centre green or yellow hose ruining the look of your new system

[Lee GLS]

Tosh, check out Gardiners new hose reels!!! I will be replacing mine with those when the time comes. No more 'snagging'

that is what he has on his list.

[Tom White]

Thanks Lee, that's helpful.

But what about connectors from the end of my microbore to my pole hose.

What are you trendy window cleaners using these days?  

Also, do I need two filters for my shurflo pumps?

Kentkleen; I've ordered Gardiners new hose reels, but thanks mate.

[David Kent @ KentKleen]

sorry just realised! too many stella!!!
Easysnap!! or rectus 21 (same thing i think)
 

[Tom White]

Lee/anyone,

How many meters of 1/2 inch hose will I need for a two man set up, approx?  It'll be for from my tank to pumps to hose reels.  Obviously I'll get more than what's required, but I don't want to order 20 meters when 10 will do.

Thanks in advance!

10 will be plenty.Why not one pump and one controller?

[CLEANCARE WC]

depends tosh but you will have plenty to spare if you buy 5 metres its only about £1.25m or something

[David Kent @ KentKleen]

GARDENA hose (google it) excellent kit. 10m will more than do IMO

[CLEANCARE WC]

Luther says 10 but Cleancare says 5, only one way to find out.....

[Steven Shoreditch]

10m is miles too much.  You'll need about 1-2m I reckon.

What the heck have you been using up to now, Tosh?

Why did you ask this Q on a Friday night when Special brew is on offer at Bargain Booze?

[David Kent @ KentKleen]

Im off to get some !!!

[Lee GLS]

Tosh, gardiners EZ snap connectors for th microbore to pole connectors, yes to pump filters, and if you are going to lift reels out of your van and put them on the floor you will need more than 1-2m.

[suds window service]

you can help me fit my new van out when i get it kent lol

[luther1]

Luther says 10 but Cleancare says 5, only one way to find out.....

I said 10 would be plenty!
Best to have too much than not enough,and some spare

[Steven Shoreditch]

Are you kidding?

Ah, I see , April 1st...
