Hi clear vision,
glad you like your backpack,but can you tell me why you find it better than your van mount.
Only ask becuase I' ve been thinking about getting a van mount of sorts to make life,I thought,easier.
I use a backpack suppose you must be saying its easier to carry water with you than to pull hoses everywhere,

I have worked with my van mount for little over a year now. Since my backpack arrived this Monday I have used it since then. I now realised what a waste of time the van mount was and wished I bought the backpack sooner!!!!!
I will tell you why I like it so much.....
1. Pull up to the house reverse into the back pack, grab your pole and off you go!
2. No trailing hoses across the pavement no worrying when your round the back of a house if anyone will trip over it.
3. No signs required. (trip hazard)
4. No hose getting caught on plants, steps, stones, furniture etc.
5. Total control between windows as the tap is on your waste. (i know you can still have a tap on yer wast on a fixed reel)
6. So much quicker on every job.
7. Don't need to worry where you park as you can walk a mile with the back pack.
I could go on and on.
I just love it. Best investment I have ever made.
I was narrow mined before and I always said to myself, "I don't know why people bother with it. What a wast of time" How wrong was I
You have total freedom with a backpack.
With a van mount you are limited to where you can go. (for access issues)
I have a lot of houses on a main street and parking the van there is a big no no so I used the ladders for them. I would park the van round the back of one of the houses and take the ladders with me and do the whole lot before returning to the van. Now this is where it will come into a league of its own!!!!!!!
