Hi Fellas

Have read before that if your store your pole hose in your van correctly it will minimize the kinks and knots you will get when working.

Today was a nightmare as the amount of kinks that have worked into the hose now mean that closing the pole back down when moving from 2nd floor down to ground floor was nearly impossible without setting the pole down on the ground while fully extended and pulling the hose from the bottom to free it from inside the pole.

At the moment i just loop it around my elbow and hand and then put it in the van, this of course isn't helping but without opting to get a reel (one more thing to carry out each time as I use the trolley system) how do you guys find the best way to store your pole hose between jobs & overnight?

Cheers
Tom

What hose are you using? I couldn't work without a reel, the pole hose is about 4 foot longer that the pole and doesn't kink that much, I just un couple it from the hose every now and then if it's getting twisted up,I use the orange aqua adapter hose and hang it on a hook between jobs/over night.

I am using the gardiner all season hose, but I use quiet a lot of it so that I can just run that from the trolley without needing to get another set of hose & reel out.

Maybe go to the doctors for some calming tablets.

I'm thinking of smoking cannabis through the working day just to keep my stress levels down.

That may well be the answer!

I started using wfp using a trolley and ended up leaving it in the van and running a proper hose out to the house, much quicker and easier on your back!
