Hi everyone,
           when cleaning upstairs with hose extnsions how do fellow cleaners prevent hose slide. Thus preventing damage to wallpaper, stair spindle, etc.

Hi Mike,
        Can these be purchased for the job or is it self improvisation.

  Many thanks rob-s

Rob,

I have designed and built a hose-anchor that sits on the stairs and will restrain 100" of solution and vac hose (200" total) without slippage.

I have hose hangers, which I dont use, as the hose continually slips out of them. Tried fastening them with releasable tie wraps still no good. I now use bungees, got some from local cheapie shop £ 1.50 for 2. also use them to hold coiled hoses together.

What are bungees what do they look like.

Please bear in mind I am half asleep

Ian,

At that time in the morning you should be more than HALF asleep  

Bungees are those elasticated 'ropes' with a hook on both ends, orriginally designed for use with a roof rack.

Thank you John, Now I am awake and not a sad person who surfs in the middle of the night I  realise that.


Good tip
