How to DIY a gutter vacuum system...http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=51156.0I did put the prices up in a post somewhere on here to show the difference for various heights. The biggest saving is when you are also in the market for a 60ft pole. The saving between diy and lets say an Omnivac is about £200-£300 for JUST the gutter vacuum system or a saving of nearer £1000- £1500 when compared to the Ionics Upkeeper. But when compared to buying a gutter vac system AND a 60ft pole then the gaps get even bigger because you are utilising the 60 pole sections to do 2 jobs.
The DIY system is lighter and can be used by 1 person at greater heights than the Omnivac and the Upkeeper doesn't go above 24ft.
The Omnivac system is great as a straight out the box system and is definatly stronger than the DIY, has ready made attachments and has a backup service. Least said about the Upkeeper the better.
There are some other systems out there so do your research.
They all have their own strengths and their own flaws so choose which is best for you and your business.
