ionics multi pole
« on: October 21, 2007, 09:29:22 pm »
Hi have just bought said pole and have noticed quite a drop in pressure to brush head. I know it is pole problem as i have tried my others with no problems and just wondered if anyone else has this trouble
cheers simbo

I think that the jets on the Multipole are larger than average, hence the apparent drop in pressure.

It might be jet size.  I think Ionics tend to supply larger (3mm?) jets as standard.  If you have been used to using smaller jets, it will give the impression of lower pressure.  I think Ionics do supply smaller jets too but not as standard.  I believe you must order them as extras and fit them yourself.  I could be wrong.  Maybe phone them and ask them.

I've noticed with my multipole brush that it makes sheeting easier than my vikans, I only use it very occasionally but it makes rinsing much easier because of the 3mm jets, Luke

I agree that rinsing feels easier with 3mm jets Luke.  The problems can occur though if you are running tight on water.  I only have a little 2 x 2ft pole myself and it does get through a lot more than when I use another pole with 2mm jets.

at the convention I was talking to a wc, explained about the first super-lites, he said he would really love to have one but he had an ocd, which meant he had to have just ionics stuff!!!!! Luke
