If u have a healthy budget stick with slx as it will be better of course

cheers Paul was thinking of the slx 25 possibly...

 

[heyoh]

slx-22 is more compact when collapsed, so easier to use in small spaces, i can only recommend it

 

[paul1]

thanks, so what gooseneck and jets would you go for ? confused over all the extras when ordering, wanting best quality etc

Hi @paul1

If I were you,which I'm not, but if I was,/emoticons/smile.png I would get the SLX 22 or 25 (prefer the 22 cuz the pole length when collapsed is smaller) ...The quick loc angle adapter.....Super lite medium mixed dual trim brush (great all rounder)......brass 2mm pencil jets.....yellow PVC rubber hose....and either EZ snap tail (male) or EZ snap female connector. :thumbsup:

I have pencil jet,s but is fan jets better on hydrophobic type glass when rinsing?

Yes

 

[paul1]

Thanks again guys

will slx 22 or 25 reach guttering and fascias?

 

[Pickingpaul]

Yes

Im going fan jets on my next brush then. What brush do u use smurf?

Ive been using a gardiner sill brush, flocking thing

 

[Smurf]

As @Tuffers would call them sally sill (stiff with fan jets) does me just fine on most jobs I do as I use hot water so a lot of the other brushes I can't use.

 

[Tuffers]

Thanks again guys

SLX-22 will reach gutters on a 2 storey house with ease. If buying one pole for all your work, I'd go for the 25' if the choice was between 22' and 25'. A 35' will come in handy for Velux's in roofs and 3 storey work though. Decisions decisions.....

First thing to order is a portable TDS metre and not a dodgy cheap one from fleebay then let us know what your tap water reading is so we can give you better advice on what you need to get.

thanks tuffers think im going for the slx 25 what brushes would you go for for good all round window cleaning one and one for doing gutters and fascias ? cheers

 

[Smurf]

You will defiantly need an ro/di system then as 288 ppm will cost the earth just to be using di resin only.

I would go for as long as you can get a water feed from your home to the van a decent van mount 4040 ro/di system with the largest tank you can get (500 or more) then instead of a trolley. Reason being I found a normal wfp trolley a pain in the **** let alone having to cart about the streets a ro/di trolley system. Also not all customers will have outside taps.

Can I buy @Tuffers, @Smurf, @spruce slx 35 and take the sections off and use it as let's say slx 22 and have extra sections just in case?Is it the same weight if take the sections off as a standard slx22?

 

[rshandyman]

cheap as chips

Best shop around for the best deals for a 4040 system but don't buy any cheap china **** being sold on the likes of fleebay as it's been said the ro membranes don't last very long
