thanks for that have you tried the omni vac im waiting for ionics to let me know when they will demo it for me the only problem i can see with ionics is the height they say 25ft but possibly 35ft does anyone use 1 higher than this

thanks again

I have the omni vac and can go over 48ft with it, and also there is a range of attachments.

I tried the ionics one at the show, the pipes are bouncy but large diameter, you also need ear defenders. I use an omni. whatever its hard work.Also buit my own F16 c/f extensions tubes 3 years ago, vv handy for the higher stuff.
Put it all in its own trailer as Kev Red used to suggest.

I am thinking of buying a gutter vac. But no good without the cctv that goes with it.
Does anyone know where i can pick up a cheap cctv, pratical for a gutter vac?

I use a Gutter Keeper up to 5 stories. I purchased the aluminium poles from Omnivac and fitted them to my Gutter Keeper with excellent results!

How much is the omni vac?

If you have a look on their website they have prices. Price depends on what height you want to reach.
The pen is mightier than the sword (and a lot easier to write with!)

I would rather give the Polar-Vak ago.  Price difference of over £500.  For the 2 storey, run of the mill houses I do. I cannot justify paying over £1200
