2 years later and your code still works!! Thank you very much!!!
I started out with the bigboy from wcw, it was good and I did add a remote on/off at one point which worked out great. These days I use the 20l seaflo backpack that's cheaper. Has a max flow rate of 2,6l/m , 70psi, sits nicely on my sack truck and is very light when empty, The battery is 12v 7ah is removable for charging as it comes with a charging dock but can also be charged when installed. Being only 20l I do have to take an extra 5l of water with me on some jobs. All in all its been a great purchase.
Glad I waited to get one now. Defo need a backpack for those tricky houses and chemicals. Great video and information 👍
😁🤜🏻🤛🏻
Nice informative vid there Pete thanks pal. Well done (and big thanks) on sorting out that discount at WCW👍🏻
😁💪🏻
Great video, I will definitely have to get this as a back up for my trolley system. But great idea as a treatment source too.
Really appreciate the 10% helping hand👍🏼
it's a great backpack.
😁👍🏻
Yeah WCW are really nice folks so it's great they can offer that wee discount especially now
Loving the side burn chops! Used this bad boy to start my business working out of my car! You should encourage anyone who is looking to buy this to start cleaning windows to get HogRed water containers because they are a lot easier to fill up the backpack. I hope your discount code also gets you the affiliate income that you deserve, You must have sent them so much business over this year!
Great suggestion with those barrels!
WCW are really nice folks so I'm glad they could offer this discount for folks, especially during this time.
Thank you for the discount ordering one now 👍
Awesome! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Let me know what you think of it
Great stuff mate 👌🏻
👍🏻😁 thanks
Great video Pete. I use the Hydra pole for spraying as well. Shame you didn’t post it yesterday before I spent £100 at WCW😭
Haha!!! Oops 🤣
Good vid Pete, you'll need to get a bigger van for all the new goodies, or build a window cleaners mancave.. 😂👍 cheers bro
Haha yeah
How are ya pal?
thanks for the discount tradman just got an extra £41 of my bigboy 2 order 😎
Awesome 👌
Thanks for the 10% discount my good sir 👍🏻
Thank WCW I just suggested it 😉
Cheers buddy 👍
Thank you for watching pal 😉🤜🏻🤛🏻
Cheers 😊
Hi seen this video and just bought one but looking to adapt hose to make it longer is it 5mm cheers
Hi, when I put the charger in it instantly drops down then the light goes on green, difficult to charge
Thanks for the code , been thinking about purchasing one of these . off topic a bit but what van do you have and what size tank do you have inside please?
Hey bud, the van is a Peugeot partner lwb.
Fitted with a 225L, Unger hydro, delivery system.
Anybody know what should be the maximum hose length for this?
Its good for sticking soap in for pvc cleans
Yeah absolutely
Hi Peter, how often do you have to change the resin filter? Like how many medium size houses would you clean before changing it?
How often you change it has a few variables to it, how hard the water is and how often its used.
For me I don't use it on every job so resin lasts me months and my water is around 38ppm.
So really the first questions to ask is how hard is the water in your area and how often are you planning to use it? Every job? Only a few jobs a day?
Peter when cleaning facia's and soffit's,can you use ordinary water,or does it have to be pure water,and can you tell me ,what you used for pure water,before you got your van installation,thank you very much.
Yeah I would just use regular water for fascia and soffit cleaning. Keep the pure for windows 😊👍🏻
When I started with wfp, I made my pure water at home using the Unger hydro. Then filled x4 25L containers, and used the backpack on a trolly to pump the pure water up to the waterfed pole 👍🏻
Think I need to check out G101 as I don’t think I’ve come across that before, have you ever used no-nonsense degreaser from Screwfix?
Yeah g101 is very good, bit more expensive though.
No I've not tried no nonsense before, is that quite good?
Think I need me one of those added to the want list that seems to be growing every day now lol
Haha! I know what you mean. I need a bigger van for all my toys lol
Awesome informative video huge thank you ..... purchased the bigboy with your discount, have made the adaptor as per your vid would be rude not to ask what the trolley is and where you got it from ???
Yeah no problem! It's called the heavy duty handy sack trolly. Say that fast after a few beers lol 😆
@@TradMan LOL ..... Awesome think I found it on amazon bout £70 thanks for the prompt reply keep up the good work
No worries!
How are you today, just watched your video. I was wondering, after a few uses, how long does it take to fully charge? Will I get 6 or 7 hours out of it... thanks for your help
I charge mine overnight and lasts me all week with intermittent use
Just need to pick your brains mr trad man starting water fed pole soon thought i will have to get some trad gear incase I have to do some interior work could I get away with just a moerman fliq pad and a pole to start with. Your thoughts would be really appreciated
Yeah no worries, you can start with that no probs at all, the full excelerator with fliq will really help you out as you can use it in hand or on a pole 👍🏻
Pete will 22 litres do a good size bungalow soffat facia and white plastics like in your video
I would have a few barrels of water as well if you can or use customers tap if they allow 😉
What sprayer nozzle do u use? Ive the iconic protector pole with the adjustable head but im struggling to find a spray nozzle compatable
Its an ionic spray nozzle 😁🤜🏻🤛🏻
@@TradMan yeah ive seen that one they said its not compatible as mine is the one where the fly lead comes out the top and connects on the outside to the brush end
Hi Trad man! I've been doing some research into setting up a window cleaning business. So the pure water allows you do not have to worry about drying the windows as it doesn't streak or stain because the water is pure? I was thinking to start out a water feed pole system with maybe the bigboy 2 I have a van already so maybe some pre-made pure water? how much water would you use per house that had roughy 10 windows? I'm not sure if I'd want to hook up to someone's water supply as everyone is on meters nowadays just trying to work out how much water I'd need per day. Any other advice you have for someone starting out? I live in an area where a lot of new builds are popping up so hoping work would be a little easer to find. :)
Yeah working with a backpack is a great way to start!
If your using wfp for everything your gonna need a lot of containers! I used 4 or 5 a day (25 L) but I still do a lot trad. So you would need around a dozen barrels roughly.
@@TradMan Thanks Trad man. With the pure water do you add anything else into the mix or is just the pure water and a good brush all you need for windows? What wfp would be good to start out with I'd need to be able to reach 3 storys so I'm guessing at least 30ft? Also how many litres of pure water can the Unger Hydrow filter before it needs changing? I know different hard water areas effect that just after a rough idea with costs
Don't need to put anything in pure water, its good to go 👍🏻
Yeah around 30ft is a good all rounder.
How much resin costs depend on a few factors so impossible to say really, depends how much you use it each week and how hard the water is as that can drastically change how much you spend.
Just got a big boy 2 today. Is it able to pump through a big hose real like the one in the video?
It should do at a high flow setting.
WCW are selling 1 of these with and 18ft titan pole and brush for £209
Use the code TRADMAN10 at checkout for 10% off
Hi great video as always, in the video were you also using the backpack for the wfp work after spraying, if not would it be feasible?
Hey buddy, for the wfp pure water cleaning I was using my van mounted facelift system. I use the backpack for chemicals only now.
You could use the backpack for both but you would need to run the backpack for a minute or so to clear out the chemicals from the pump.
Thanks for the reply, how does this backpack compare to the Gardiner backpack?
I've not tried gardiners one but I've seen plenty people use it so must be decent. Being Gardiner I'm sure it's good. I'll have to have a look and see if someone's done a good review of it and compare features to this bigboy 2 👍🏻
TRAD - MAN THE WINDOW CLEANER do you have to use a pole to spray chemicals or could you use the WFP to spray the chemicals?
@@alexmunn36 you could use your wfp yeah, it would just come out as a jet rather than a spray if you had pencil jets fitted
Hi man, quick question can use this backpack for biocide treatment on roofs?
The pump is not designed for chemicals. It will work but will knacker the seals eventually.
The chemical pump box from wcw might be a better option for you
Hi Trad, bit of advice Plz, I've just taken delivery of the BigBoy 2. Do i need or can I add a length of Hose from the Pack to the Pole for added mobility. Or will it loose Omph if i do that. Thank You
My hose from the backpack is around 50ft and works fine 🙂
@@TradMan Cheers Trad, would that be something like the Yellow Borehose?
@@TradMan I meant Micro Bore?
Hey trad man what sort of modifications have you made to your bucket on the belt?
Heya, check out this video buddy
th-cam.com/video/AEqtTwDWiM0/w-d-xo.html
TRAD - MAN THE WINDOW CLEANER thanks Pete
@@alexmunn36 very welcome buddy
Thanks for the discount, and info, just waiting for delivery now. one question though, can i use a uni-valve on the pole with the back pack?????
Yeah absolutely, the pump will stop and start when you operate the univalve 👍🏻😊
@@TradMan hope you get some sort of referral fee from wcw, just spent nearly £900 with them using your Tradman10 code 👍 "nice saving" thanks
@@kennethspeakman5600 nah I don't get anything from that but its ok, knowing that something like this helps window cleaners is great especially during these difficult times.😊👍🏻
@@TradMan i have that Same backpack but my pump won't shut off when I engage univalve...it just keeps pumping and hoses fly off, is there something I'm missing, thanks fella.
Are all of the connections / o rings tight? If there's any leak it will continue to pump.
2:36 do you have to make an adaptor yourself?
Yeah 😉
What u think of this compared to the Gardner back pack mate
In all honesty I've never used gardiner ones, had bigboy version one and two, both very good. I've heard good things about the gardiner ones to.
I'm a traditional window cleaner is this big boy the recommended one cheers ...
Yeah this backpack is brilliant. Whether its an awkward window you want to use the reach and wash or use it for applying chemicals, its an awesome bit of kit.
Use the code TRADMAN10 to get 10% off 👍🏻
@@TradMan I'm on the case as I speak mate thanks
Hi there is the 10% discount still ongoing please?
Yeah sure is 😊
Hello, still using the first 😎👍
