one other thing, is it piped inside the pole or is the water transferred through the pole itself if you know what I mean?  I really like the sound of 2.3kg @45ft, esp if we're not talking bank breaking prices.

Hi Shawn,

I will put your name down as a definite. We will contact you next week to arrange delivery and payment. You could fit alost any brush to the gooseneck as it uses a standard screw thread on the end, however it would increase weight at the most important end of the pole, which would not be a good idea.

HI jm123,

I dont know if you can see it on the pictures but the hose is external and held to the pole by velcro straps, this provides the easiest solution to quickly taking off sections, we started by having the hose internal but it proved too complicated.

I will email you proposed prices later. (They are on our website under Pole specifications.)

this probably a silly question but are the poles robust?

I have been using one for 6 months now on commercial work, however I wouldn't want to stand on one as they are not that robust.

Hi Shawn,

Having thought about it I would be prepared to sell it to you. I had been keeping it as a spare in the garage roof but I realise that with two 45ft super-lites in my armoury I will never go back to using it even in an emergency

It has had nearly 5 years of use but still is in very good working condition, it has an omnipole neck and 16 inch brush head. The pole hose has a flow valve fitted (slightly worn!) and I can fit whatever type of end fitting you wish. Postage would be about £18 for this as it is very large.

Let me know on alex@gardiner.e7even.com what you think it is worth.

lets say for example - someone purchases the sl-40, can they at a later stage purchase another section to make it an sl-45??

Hi Guys,

The website prices are not inclusive of VAT, but are not actually definite prices yet just a guide price.

Base section can be added whenever wanted and will cost about £45-50 each.

Hi Gaz,

The sections are a taper push fit which only need a light push to fit together. Once together they provide a wobble and rotating free joint. To remove simply twist and pull apart.

The pole can only be adjusted by taking a section off.

To pack it up the first 5 section pack away inside themselves.

Hope that this helps.
