Just been to see my business adviser this afternoon and to my surprise she told me that at the end of next month its going to be law that all window cleaners need to have a water fed pole system. Does anyone know anything about this?

Hi Andy,
The girl who works behind the counter in ladbrookes is hardly a business advisor.They tell you england stand a good chance in the world cup have a punt, but they don't know much about sport either.Thats just to get you to have a bet- i've been caught a few times.

I hope it aint true. I rarely use ladders (too soft nowadays), but I think it would be a sad day. 

[cleewindows]

the ladder monkeys will be stuck and i can have there custys

why ??   please be true

the advice is already written just some read it in different ways. your not meant to use ladders for work that can be done with wfp, not having it because of an excuse you cant afford it is not a good enough reason. Will let everyone else aruse abou this, I usde ladders and wfp by the way, ladders only for work that cannot be wfp'd

Your having a laugh I am guessing, if you cannot afford £600 you should not be in business sorry if that sounds harsh, but come on I do the same job as you and now what you can earn

I see your point,but some times people dont want to spend the money,say if you had a fall and broke your neck or any other part,you got to ask,is spending about £1000 worth it on a decent wfp system then haveing my legs/neck broke and being off for the next 6 months.

Right, I have my £600.00, I am in a very hard water area & need to have A RO & DI setup.

I live in a flat, so I can`t purify the water at home. I have asked family, but they are not prepared to set up a system on their properties.

Please advise further.
