for the last couple of years have used  small hand held hazelock sprayers to apply to well soiled gutters and soffits etc. Spraying from ground level you cant be very precise so you end up getting the ladders out! So im after a hand sprayer/back pack to apply the cleaner without climbing up. Have looked around but cant find anything any ideas? What do you lot use?

Im guessing you need a genny to use with a gutter lance?

Harris pole from b &Q a hose lock sprayer with hose from b&Q some 5mm tubing from guess where, a drill and jobs a gooden.


I will try and do a vid so show others when I can, if you want to see the most part look on you tube for:  water fed pole under £30

you can see a bit, just add the hand pump sprayer and the connections with it, reply if you need help after you try and I will help you out.

it is easy

p.s I use this every week and have done for long time now.

This is what i use ,UBIK/TFR is pumped from pre mixed barrel and it goes right through the window cleaning pole with fan jets !
EASY PEASY and no pumping and refilling pressure bottles .
