Astra van - gutter vac

[Windowcleaner88]

Just wondering if anyone knows if you can get a 3600w gutter vacuum ( so the larger ones) inside an Astra van ? Or even a interceptor ?

Many thanks

My friend got my Interceptor in his old Transit Connect but I doubt it would fit in an Astra Van. Would think a disassembled 3600 would fit in

I didn’t think about disassembling it, that would work. Thanks

Has anyone used the Guttersucker solo ? And how does it compare to the interceptor skyvac?

Never heard of the solo so had a look at it. Basically they've stuck a genie on a trolley and charged £1500+ for doing so.
The Inteceptor looks much better engineered but as I've got one I would say that ?

Got an interceptor and it’s a brilliant piece of kit not used a solo so can’t say what they are like

Think gutter sucker and spinaclean are the same company same machines just branded different

The Solo is nothing like the Inteceptor, not saying their other machines are different though

Thank you all for the input, the interceptor clearly looks like the better of the two.

Does anybody know if the 51mm GVS silicone necks are compatible with the kiam cyclone carbon push fit poles ?

With the carry on she had with them this time last year I doubt she'd want to comment

If you come across a blocked down pipe when vaccing and you cannot successfully unblock it with the vac and it needs unscrewing from the wall do you charge more for this? I haven’t come across this yet but would be good to know in case I do.

Generaly.no. it's often at the elbow or because they used very long screws.

Most of the time there are no screws so you can get the elbow out without having to unscrew anything.

We inspect before we quote and often can spot this in inspection. We have a GoPro and use this on the end of our Gardner pole so no need for ladders to inspect

Apologies for my delayed response I was out of the country on Friday and only just seen this. Yes any of our silicone necks are 51mm inner diameter so would fit on 51mm poles from elsewhere.
