for those who have made their diy water fed pole system what size hose do you run up the pole and into the brush , and also the shurflo pumps, is it worth forking out for the one in a box .
  more daft questions to follow no doubt!

Hi sw windows,

No question is daft if you dont know the answer or need the best advice.  I have only just recently set up my wfp system and could not have done it without the help of the guys on this forum.  Believe me I asked all the stupid questions going and glad I did too !!

My hose came already assembled with a viking head brusg and 6mm clear pipe fed into the brish, down the pole and complete with the connector at the end - ready to plug in and go.  I think it was put together for me and I paid for the parts seperately.  Used www.windowcleaningwarehouse.co.uk - speak to steve hes really knowledgable and helped us with our replacement pump too.

Just replaced mine which lasted me over 4 years and its not boxed.

Hope that helps.  Good luck.

i use 6 mm micro hozelock pipe, i wrap mine around the pole, find it MUCH better then through the pole

I find the shurflo 100 psi is good its only about £100 but use Matts site cause thats designed for diy wfp and I couldnt have built mine without the info. I found the pump in the white box was to expensive so I went for the cheaper option. Very pleased with it, it comes with all filters which normaly cost more.
