I spoke t o Spinaclean, and basically if you want to remove the thick grass sods it is full throttle, and both motors !
They also cleared up the generator issue . . . . they electically  tested the machine with a couple of generator suppliers, and the take up had no adverse effect on either machine, si I am going to get a smaller genny now, and save my poor back   ;D

Funny you should mention that, using carbon from www.carbonfibretubes.co.uk
Three of them are stuck together because I am too lazy to clean them, so I need to find a way of separating em  :'(

I am looking to replace our Omnivac and have been considering the Sky vac

I have been carrying out a little research,

water lift required to remove heavy objects and to reduce blockages, beneficial if cleaning wet gutters, Airflow required if clearing dry gutters

Specification
Sky vac power mix off- air flow rate of 400 m3/h, 2380mm lift
Sky vac power mix on- air flow rate of 200 m3/h, 3800mm lift

Issa 640 is 600m3/h, 2550mm lift

Im tempted into the sky vac as the pole nozzle should not block as much but concerned it will not perform as well in the dry weather with its low airflow rate when carrying out commercial high level

Has anyone had both to compare?

You can chop and change the airflow, it gets a bit too technical for me, but if you phone Spinaclean, and ask for Mark I am sure he would talk you through it.   They actually carry out gutter cleaning a as a business too, so they know what they are talking about.

Rob - do it, it makes gutter vacing unbelievably easy!!

The lads can easily do 15 clears in a day now and not break into a sweat  ;D


Get in touch with Lee prior, he used to use omnivac then tried a couple of others, I think he now has the nilfisk suck and blow vac and loves it

How would you experienced gutter vac users rate the grippa models. Thinking of getting the 60ltr, 60ft version of these purely because Gardiners produce the poles. Is the vac up to the same standard as a skyvac?

I have the 640 already from omnivac which has seen better days, its been a great vacuum so can't go wrong at that price

The Skyvac is the same spec as this Soteco, the Soteco's trolley is not as good but its a fair bit cheaper

Sky vac use sotecto vacs - the ISSA are the best Soteco produce.

All pressure sprayers is all pumps direct which is pressure washers and pumps which is webnet?

I get confused with the number of times that company renames itself! :) they do a fair bit for BT on the drop shipping of Vacuums etc which all come from Dual Pumps :) Either way worth around £400 plus VAT

I did look around for a similar model, but the other ones didn't have the offset inlet, which is a big deal for us as this gets blocked up quite a lot !            Do you have a link for the other model Ben ?

Trolley looks excellent on that machine have to say. How many litres is that one?
