Hi, I want to start a small window cleaning round and I have read I need a van (which I have), a 25 Litre pole fed trolly system and distill the water at home? Is there much of a difference in the quality of the different pole fed trollies and if so which is the best and how do I distill the water ( I live in a hard water area)?
Many thanks

You'll need a r/o unit,di vessal,tds metre,barrels,pole plus the trolley or backpack system then the hardest part is getting enough customers.

And the other hard part is doing a good job.

Ask around if you can give a days free labour to someone and see how things are done.

Hi Stephen , I would advise you get a tds meter first ( or borrow one if you know a wfp window cleaner ) and would be handy if you know your mains water pressure ( one can be bought cheaply from toolstation etc. that screws on to a washing machine tap etc. ).This is important because it will help you decide which reverse osmosis system will suit your needs and wether to boost the pressure with a pump or not, and keep you within a budget. Do you have space at home for a static holding tank of water than you can draw from as you need it ? What van do you have ? and how small or large a window cleaning round are you aiming for ?. If its something you are wishing to build on, I would suggest you think about a van mounted set up rather than a trolley, you will soon get fed up lugging it in and out of the van and refilling it from barrels. DIY a system, nothing fancy - bare bones - it need be nothing more than a tank, battery, pump and hose reel to get started.
Don't get suckered in and over sold on things you just dont need.
