I could probably put together a DIY Kit, but am a little unsure about securing these tanks, can you just drill down on your floor etc.

Again any info about what pole would fit in my kangoo and fill times. I live in a flat and would prob be using a stand pipe, so fill times are important.

as well as info on these, can you put it over your rear axel or back of the van, or have oyu got to get it as in the middle as you can?

hey ladder garder

The most simple way to WFP windows is to open the back door and grab the end of a hose and walk end of story,i`ve used backpacks on a trolley and off and there both Hernia encouraging methods.I would take advise from people that have used and purchased a product or method of working not someone who is simply selling it.

Anyway, Glyn, once the trolley is empty, tucked up in the back of the van, what do you do when its empty and the day is only half over? And youve earnt 60 quid.

You fill it up with the 25 litre jerry cans you are carrying the pure water in the same as any other trolley or small tank user - I cannot believe you asked such an obvious question.

Why do I bother looking in on  this forum

Well, I dont know why you do, perhaps you should ask yourself that.

Anyway, thanks for answering my question, even if you do imply we're tire you with our idiocy.

Glyn your marketing and presentation skills require an immense element of fine tuning (considering you are in sales, and first impressions are what count; my first impression of you was that you were a kid troll) If I were you and you're unable to be professional in your presentation on here; for your benefit you really ought to take your own advise and not bother logging on.

After all you're the guy trying to sell trolleys suggesting they should be left in the backs of vans.

You obviously never used a double ladder to clean windows  - if you did how did you possibly lift it on and off a roof rack.

If you really cannot not lift a backpack weighing in at only 16 or 17 killograms without the risk of a hernia have you considered if manual work really for you?

are they suposed to be filled with water, they would then wiegh more. I am using a triple tier ladder. If I fill my bucket to about 3 gallons, that weighs more than the ladder.

you will beable to top up most have taps..wots yr tds count anyway?

[WCE]

I wouldn't completly knock the idea, as I work mostly in a town center and parking can be a pain, but I definately would invest maybe 1k to give WFP a go, as I would like to even just use it on high jobs.

Then I would say the 50L classic would be Ideal. I do think that the 125L would be a poor choice because it's just gonna be to much hassle. The weight of it full is 5 times the weight of the recommended maximum limit of a single person (25kg).
The other problem is that if its full and you encounter a slope of then you are going to find it hard to stop from getting away from you the potential for an accident is quite high IMO. A van mount might not be practical (eg parking etc) but you could combine the 50L with a hose and get the best of both worlds. The running time between fills is 45-60 mins so it will last long enough to get a fair whack done.

You would load and unload the 125 when it is empty filling it on the ground. Many customers leave the trolley in rtheir vehicle and unreel the hose to reach where they want to clean, additional hoses can be connected to reach further.

It will last just over two hours of continuose work at 1 litre per minute, the 125 has a bypass control valve so you can restrict the water use more if you wish for maintenance cleans or increse the flow for first cleans.

Yeah like a vanmount lol.

     
Glyn I thought these bigger trolleys were for commercial work with access issues? You cant be serious that people would just whack it in the back of and use it from there, what's the point? Surely if you were going to do that you  might as well get a van mount? I am surprised that you didn't advise him that considering you sell em :

If I were you and you're unable to be professional in your presentation on here; for your benefit you really ought to take your own advise and not bother logging on.

My window cleaning company carries out work for some of the largest organisations in the UK but I obviously dont know anything about the industry

After all you're the guy trying to sell trolleys suggesting they should be left in the backs of vans.

What is wrong with that, a very cheap 125 litre van mount with the benifit of also being a trolley.
Think outside the box

[peter holley]

van mount is best, and also have in your kit a couple of back packs....i would recomend the window cleaning warehouse back pack , its far better than shureflow one , its lighter (much lighter) easierb to carry with a handle, and less complicated (more reliable)....and half the price

I am serious about my questions if anyone can answer, joking aside, trevor I havent recieved my meter yet I will let you guys know when I ge it.

Well, in that case Im sure you dont speak to your window cleaning clients like you do on here.

Perhaps customer liason is left to someone else in your company.

I wouldnt expect to be in business if I looked down my nose and treated my customers with the apparent disdain and lack of respect you show on here.

Im in the market for a top of the range gutter vac, as my advertising has produced some profound leads recently, (mostly notably commercial contracts) Im thinking of getting a 4th vehicle simply to fulfill these on a full time basis, any suggestions Glyn?
