2 0r 4 brush jets

[johnny bravo]

ive often wondered if 4 Pencil jets in your brush head is more quicker cleaning the windows than just 2 Will you use much more water this way
Most use 2 jets as standard.
Has anyone changed to 4 and if so was it better for your work load . Does it clean quicker.

I use 4 x 1.5mm pencil jets in 35cm brushes and flow controller set same and I would say use same or less water as I can rinse faster.

No. It doesn't clean quicker. That's all about your input.

1.4mm jets are virtually half the size of 2mm jets. So 4 x 1.4mm jets will use the same amount of water as 2 x 2mm jets will.
IMHO it would be difficult to add another 2 jets to a 26cm brush just due to spacing and removing bristles.

I have 1 x 35cm brush with 4 x 1.4mm jets well spaced. It is the old pressed in jets. The width of the brush speeds up cleaning, and I still get a good rinse rate. However, I don't use it very much as I find the extra weight of brush tires me out quicker. At the tail end of my working day it probably works out about the same. But I still find working with the smaller, hence lighter brush easier.

While I'm working I'm always analysing, thinking and looking at ways I can make my working day better. I regularly upgrade stuff, always hoping that it will make my life easier. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. But I can always learn from the experience. I thought about adding extra jets years ago, but quickly ruled it out. I opted for a rinse bar instead. That was great for rinsing, but the downside was that the plastic jets got quickly damaged by the brick walling on either side of the window frame.

As we no longer have any large window frames on our round that the rinse bar suited, I haven't used that brush with it fitted for a quite a while now.
