If I wanted to buy a Hydroblade brush in the uk where do i find one?

as far as i am aware there are no UK suppliers, you have to go direct to Reach-it

[Marc Stock]

Im sorry....

But what a load of snake oil.

A brush is a brush. £139 for a brush? Seriously?

And whats all this about rinsing? I don't rinse, i just wash the windows and go. What are you rinsing off? Pure Water?

Unfortunately mark, people will buy anything that looks ‘new’ and ‘cool’

A brush is most definitely a brush. I’ve tried all sorts over the years and guess what, they all clean the window in exactly the same amount of ‘up and down’ motions as each other.

The only thing I care about nowadays is weight. Which is why I stick to xtreme brushes. I’ve found absolutely no difference in scrubbing power between extreme brushes and other, bigger heavier brushes!

Do people genuinely think that different brushes actually speed  up there working day? Rubbish.

Been there done that, it makes no difference.

£24 xtreme brush vs this constructor rubbish would yield absolutely no speed improvement what so ever on any of my work, I can categorically guarantee that, without even trying it.

I wonder if Lee Burbidge is lined up to be the UK distributor by any chance?😂

I just have the pump directly working with the built in pressure switch, and a tap on my hose where my pole connects. I normally just go full flow if the windows can take it, if they cant i control it with the tap.

You will get a better result with a high flow rate with any brush I’ve seen so many WFP with the water piddling out they must be using around 30-40 on the controller,no where near enough water it should be 12-14ft out the jets imo to give better results and no excessive rinsing needed.

[NWH]

As your scrubbing the water should be cascading down the window rinsing as your brushing with no need to be lifting off the glass time after time,even on maintaince cleans I flood em.

[Stoots]

That's the way to do it boys, flow, flow and flow.

Controller? 

 Never used a controller, 5lpm or 5.5lpm pump flat out is all I use

[NWH]

You can never take enough water out withbyou in the morning all this scrimping on water with univalves etc will just put strain on the pump with it keep cycling,turn it off when you get back to the van. If that’s a problem get a bigger tank and do not buy one of those buggeritupabrushes.

On the other hand.... if you can't clean windows to the best possible standard quickly and efficently with an "optimal" flow rather than having to rely on an OTT full flow.... then this also indicates a lack of skill and thorough understanding of the process!

 On my trolley I usemy 4lpm pump on full force and use a remote to turn the pump on n off rather than rely on the pressure switch.
However when im using the van mount, its on a flow between 75 n 80 (goes to 99)and I use a tap (ball valve) to turn the water on n off using pressure switch.  Beats bending pole hose to stop the flow as you need to have some method of control.
Ones using uni valve and the like to save water would only be trolley users I would imagine

Interesting, usually I don't reply to this type of post. I might deal with hecklers from time to time, but not this type of post. Because there is no constructive conversation that will help this forum or the people here in this post that would come from it. But I will say this small point.

In 3500BC the wheel was invented, or so the famous story goes. A little-known story was a friend of the man that invented the wheel. He thought his friend's idea was soo cool, so radical, he went from village to settlement in and around his local area and he told to whoever would listen about his friend and the wheel. He had a cart back home with these wheels on and he said how productive it had made his farm getting crops to market.

Some expressed fear, some said that they have bareback horses to carry loads and some doubted the idea worked at all... some would go further and say that the idea was rubbish and that it was a con, that he was not the best person to listen to because he was a friend of the wheel inventor.

I guess what I am saying is that it does not matter about connections, it matters if the idea works.

Another factor in whether the wheel would become popular or not would be down to people, like you or other blocks, maybe its cost, maybe its hassle, maybe its just laziness in people to try something different maybe it's as innocent as indifference. We and YOU are entitled to these reactions. But you are also entitled to find out for yourself.

I am happy to inbox you my invoice for the brush I am using. I paid 132 dollars with 19.95 shipping charge total $ 151.00, it was delivered November 29th, 2017, but I didn't start playing around with it until a couple months or so back.

So if you don't mind and with respect, I am here to help those asking questions about a tool I am actually using.

You're seriously comparing the reach-it constructor brush to the invention of the wheel?

I dont personally think the problem isnt that people dont want to try it but more like the high price to pay plus the shipping cost plus the waiting time inorder to try said brush!
For the same price you could buy several brushes and get cracked on working without the need to wait and if you dont like the UK brush you can stick it on ebay and guarantee a sale.

Personally i like the rhino hose Perry sells and no one stocked the red colour and so I ordered the 170ft length for myself and sold some off.   However this constructor brush is a little steap in price.   Even if a distributor in the uk existed, to recoup his/her shipling fees etc it still wont work due to no discount in the price.
Tben another time having to mess about to reorder the bristle set up you want etc etc.  It just sounds such a faff for alot of money

Next there will be hoseless water transfer.

That's the next big thing boys

The quicker you rinse the quicker you move on to the next window.

[dazmond]

the heaviest brush i use is around 180g(gardiners ultimate).how light are these constructor brushes?not that i want to buy one like....

..i got put off the "reach it" gear when they brought out that ridiculous pole (with a million different sections)confusing or what? ....

"Optimal" anything more is not required.

[Slacky]

What’s optimal for one window isn’t optimal for the next. So on full flow you waste some water, big deal. You get through the work quicker. That’s what counts, not “is my flow optimal”
