WFP is a great tool! But I dont think you will eradicate traditional methods. I also would not want to see it eradicated! Plus we still have chamois leather...
Plus lots of people dont clean the vents due to the durt build up. Plus WFP is not green in my opinion. I can several houses or commercials with 1 bucket of water.
I get through litres of water in production and in the actual use of WFP.
Also as stated by Takeone, how will startups afford a WFP system. Its alot of money, and for what really, a converted trolley,or if van mount a plastic tank, and a hose, and battery, fishing pole and a brush. Oh and great marketing on pure water.
Theres running costs with WFP. DI resin at around £69 + vat, filters, spare parts like pumps, flow controls, fues...the list goes on.
How many window cleaners and other have jumped on the ban wagon to sell WFP, AND SUPPLIES. Nearly everyone that can afford to, because it got great marketing and Safety and safety sells the actual products required to make a WFP is so cheap the system is rediculous. It is actually quite cheap if you purchase abroad in large quantities. They sell these products to us at rediculous prices. It a money making get rich quick scheme. But I have to shake their hand as I missed that one. But I soon may go this route as well. Buy abroad in bulk like china, USA its easy money almost over 40% profit some cases alot more.
Also I have certain customers they do not want WFP and visa versa. So not everyone young or old can be converted.
As for Britain is not great, thats crap. Britain is great! Why? because of people like Takeone starting up. The small one man band is what makes Britain what it is today. We are still one of the weathiest countries. Even in this economic climate. If this was not so great here why does everyone come here!
