Hello all,  i was just wondering if anyone else still uses the aqua daptor (like me) over the univalve? because i  prefer the long on/off click pull that the older model gives you, plus you can hear it, and also turn the water off/on at the brush head. I hate that tough on/off pull from the univalve that i have as a backup. I know if you change from flexible pole hose to the harder pu type it helps, but using cold water in the winter, this would be like using stiff wire as pole hose wouldn't it? cheers m

I have one but it sits in my spares box in case the Uni fails me , I have another Uni on my other pole but would not bother to swap , just stick on the Dapta til another Uni came , seems pointless using it full time as I have no more spares for it !

Univalve all day long, don't need the added weight of the aqua dapter at the top of the pole, plus those springs always failed me!

I bought a few spares like springs and star wheels, before they stopped making them. I recently broke the shaft on mine and had to make a new aluminium tube for it,  which was very difficult to do, but i just managed it.

We still have a pole in the van with one.

I honestly prefer the pull action of the Aquadapter. Its easier to pull on and off than the Univalve.

I have 3 new aqua dapters, never been used sitting in a box in my office somewhere, I may be persuaded to search for them if you want them and the price is right!!!!!

the only thing i miss is the wheel to turn the water on/off when cleaning ground floor windows,other than that....

1.i dont miss the extra length and weight at the top end of my pole
2.i had a few aquadaptors that just "sheared off"(basically fell to pieces!)within a short time....
3.the little spring snapping fairly often...annoying....

as for the univalve being harder to turn on/off than the aquadaptor.........ive never noticed it.......

I've always used PU pole hose with mine since they came out and I've never had to pull the hose more the a couple of inches max to operate the Univalve. My longest pole is an SLX 25

[Spotfree]

My two uni-valves are becoming very annoying to use the last few months, having to pull a few times to switch off. Especially when the water is warm, I use the Gardiner green PU hose.

They are probably a couple of years old now, is there any way to service them?

I would buy all of them from you mate,  if it wasn't  for the fact that there is no wearing parts that are available on these anymore. I have around 6 springs, plus two mk3 star wheels left. Is yours a mk3 unit? because the mk3 star, has a notched stem on it, for the water on and off,  then i could buy one off u if maybe? for say £30?  or swap it 4 a unused packaged univalve and o rings, but its probably not worth your while hunting around for it i guess as they made a mk1 to mk3 anyway? Thanks m

The aquadapeter was great....at the time

But then the univalve came out and made them look a bit daft.

The two problems with the aquadapter were number 1 extra weight just where you don't want it and number 2 that bloody spring!

I do have one somewhere though

I think I’ve got one or two Aquadapter’s in my garage you can have if your looking for them. Got them as spares but then the univalve came out.

Send me an email and I’ll give you my mobile number.
