When I bought a couple of new poles from Gardiners I got free carbon fibre swannecks which I never bothered to use as quite happy with my plastic resinecks but having broke a few and run out of them I had to use the free carbon fibre gooseneck today ................... WOW what a difference ... not sure the weight difference but feels a whole lot lighter.

Hi Susan

Which tap have you got and where is it leaking water from?

Which pole hose are you using?

[shina]

I have the carbon gooseneck and like it when I have high level deep windows to get to. But I like the plastic ones as you can then angle the brush as you like and be closer to the glass, if you know what I mean

You would do better using barbs that Gardiner sells. 8mm stem into the tap then barb for your pole.

[Dave Willis]

Those taps don't leak if the hose is pushed in properly 

Why have a tap on the brush head?  Can't see the point in that.

So you can turn the water on then off.

U can't turn the water off when the pole is 20 feet up.

Tried one on a few houses but much prefer the standard resi-neck as i find it generally easier and more adaptable. If I did use a gooseneck I think I would prefer the 55 degree, although would think the 45 degree would work well with the sill brush.

I find the brush feels really unstable when I use a gooseneck. And it's awkward for ground floor windows. Much prefer the plastic swivel

comprimise between nowt and an aquadapter ... saves some water for no extra weight

Try having it at the bottom of the pole.

kink the pole hose.

I'm beginning to think this is the way forward. Got sent a replacement aquadapter for the one that broke. It's obviously a recon one and it's frustrating the amount of times it doesn't click round or gets stuck between rotations. You just have to keep connecting and disconnecting your pole hose that's the only disadvantage. The aquadapter does add a noticeable weight on the end as well.

These pole valves can easily cope with 100psi without any issue so it will be down to the hose and its connection with it.

If you are using the standard yellow pole hose then you will need John Guest barb to stem adapters (http://www.gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/acatalog/John-Guest-8mm-stem-to-6mm-Barb-PM250806E.html). If we had fitted this valve to the pole hose from new then these will have been fitted as standard.

If you are using our Orange PU hot water hose then these are not needed and any connection issues can be sorted by cutting the end off the hose to get a fresh end and then firmly inserting into the valve couplings.

slightttlllyyyyy disagree with you on this one Alex
when the pole vale is shut and running on hot the hose keeps shooting off/ out of the valve
Easily solved i used a barb
I am using your orange pu hose

i love gardeners goosenecks ... kinking  the hose is something i learnt from other windys on here. i tend to do that more and more ... aquadapter soon went in the bin. not meant to use with light poles imho
