Hi there. what do you think on this machine pump bottle with the motorised unit charger in this video would be good for in the soft wash industry, is there a lot of scope there do you think, and how much is it and the pole extension. Thanks
Having a piece of kit that looks good, and used for a certain purpose is very professional. So well done sir. Personally speaking I don't look at the price tag. Cos you get what you pay for right? Apart from that we all love new toys. And they spur us on. Good work.
Colin Fleming It’s never caused any issues that I’ve noticed. Everything gets washed with plenty of water. But I would be careful about removing hanging baskets or possibly protecting flower beds if there are any.😃👍🏼
Hi Mate, I hope all is well with you. I have been looking a the constant flow and wondered if it is ok to use with algo clear pro, after roof moss removal? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks Rick
Yeah, but a backpack will be better, Gardiner or big boy from window cleaning warehouse. They have a bigger capacity and also you can control the flow.😃👍🏼
@@aemackintosh Appreciate the reply. That is a great idea I will invest in a back pack. I did try feeding it through my 100mt reel (via trolley pump) but it wouldn't do it. Had to use back pack and spray Lance. Will the pump on a back be able to pump the biocide through? Last question 😀 Thanks Rick
All I can do is laugh at the 'backpack & DA Adaptor" comments.....the old saying of "if you know you know" couldn't be more apparent could it! I used my Constant Flow & Contact Foam cleaner all day Saturday, 6 shots of foam cleaner added to 14ltrs of pure water earned me £290.....6 shots of foam cleaner didn't even made a dent in the 5 ltr bottle for £48 awesome kit if you ask me! 5 ltrs should earn me north of £1000.....that in my eyes is good business for £48.
The Ionics system does seem an expensive way of going about it. But it’s whatever works for you I suppose, and if you’re making good money at it then that’s great! Nice work!😃👍🏼
Hi there Steve what do you think on this machine pump bottle with the motorised unit charger in this video would be good for in the soft wash industry, is there a lot of scope there do you think?
What size pole is it? The vertigo pole is ionic new version of the grafter pole. I went to the road show the other week in Cardiff. and got to be honest the sprayer looks cool but for the money it's a no no for me, and that's hard for me to say as all my equipment is ionic. But It's about time you started upgrading and showing some ionic equipment as for me it's the best. It sorts out the boys from the men if you like.....
Spencer j It is some good solid kit. It is a 30ft pole. Love how easy it is to change the brush heads. I don’t have a backpack so I reckon I’m going to use this loads in the spring, con roofs, fascias, gutters, and you can just have plain pure water in it for windows.😃👍🏼
julian pierce I don’t have a backpack so I reckon I’m going to use it loads for windows as well as fish and con roofs. The solution seems really powerful even with a small dose, so we will see how it goes.😃👍🏼
@@Felts_cro wfp is a cash cow in my opinion for all the companies but ionics have always been super expensive for some reason same with reach it how can Gardiner's and facelift give us good quality products for so much less do we even need these new tech anyway ?? Remember the zero parts per billion ros ???
Absolute rip off, I use a big boy back pack £100 and Facelift Razor wash 5L for £13.14. Does an excellent job. I put a uni-valve in my spray solution pole I would highly recommend doing that!
MrAlexdavies89 I used facelift razor wash and I’ve went threw 5 lts very good I though - now onto screwfix heavy duty de greaser which is even better and cheaper 👍
MrAlexdavies89 I’m not sure about staining , I’ve tackled some brutal upvc jobs in the summer and the most I left it on for was 10 mins and it was easy cleaning off . It foams up a lot more than the razrwash which I liked , it’s very soapy - think it was only a fiver , brilliant stuff
Da applicator from da components is another real time saver on upvc jobs - it’s a sprayers that connects to your pole instead of the brush head . Think it’s about £30 but well worth the money
Henry Logman yes that what I use on my pole from DA brilliant bit of kit. What ratio do you mix it? It’s this the de greaser? www.screwfix.com/p/no-nonsense-heavy-duty-degreaser-5ltr/88668?tc=LA8&ds_kid=92700023752829226&ds_rl=1241687&ds_rl=1245250&ds_rl=1243318&ds_rl=1249481&ds_rl=1245250&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIw7-l0oug3wIVBLftCh2w3w0_EAQYASABEgKJ2_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
I use a Gardiner 10l sprayer its battery powered was only £45 and use a fan jet attachment for 60p. Job done. Nice and froffy. Not sure why anyone buys anything from ionic. They are not innovative just replicate and 5 times the price
I’ve been using a cheap set up till now. Next year I’m really looking to up my game and hit my prices hard. I think it makes a difference if you have the best kit and provide a professional service, people should pay a fair price for that quality service.💦😃👍🏼
A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services Have to disagree to a certain extent, It’s not about buying the most expensive kit. Ionic are an absolute rip off! You wouldn’t have paid the money for that sprayer they sent it to you so you can promote it for them in your video. And you say your going to hit your prices hard I think you charge about the right money now to be honest from what I’ve seen in your videos.
A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services Don’t think it makes sense to charge more because your equipment costs more , to be that’s wrong . You end up with the same results I’m sure . If you have a repeat customer that gets the same result as before and you plan on charging them more money you’ll have problems . Good luck anyway 👍
No, your right. But I do think that projecting a professional image and having a professional approach helps you charge a professional price. The equipment you use is part of that.😃👍🏼
hi dave ~can u share with us ur experience about vertigo u said not a good pole give us little detail cuz im thinking get one either phantom22 or vertigo.
Sure, it comes in very handy. The contact foam cleaner really cuts through the dirt. I wish there was an easier way to toggle the spray on and off, that’s all.😃👍🏼
Got u to be a salesman through all your u tube the pure water and brush is all that’s needed to aggravate dirt pure water type rinse to keep it clean why do u think when it first hit the market the paten side of price I had to pay in access of £10.000 now it got popular they can be bought for as little as £1.000 big difference to about 20year ago i would say now u want soaps after all u r not a traditional window cleaner anymore (ouch) forgot u prefer to sell not work as hard as us window cleaner that started when no one else wanted to carry there work off the ladder and on foot many like us started truly form the bottom of the ladder there is enough work out there but why advertise it to every cowboy u must of stated some were at the bottom to be doing this work keep it in the family or every one wants to be a window cleaner or taxi driver it’s not right it pushes disrespect between window cleaner I would not ever clean some else s window job unless they have missed more than 3 months but due to new b out there taken mine and other window cleaners work by under cutting and pushing for work due to being hungry for work and what annoying is they pack it in soon as winter comes u see were I’m coming from big company’s sell ther product whatever and u keep helping a lot of cowboys u say I can do that wait till they start takin your work and it’s more about the customer having them let them down old window cleaner having a grump at modern day u tube it has it s place think what u r advertising or just show your good work know u think it’s
Thanks for your comments. I do know what it’s like to start with nothing, as that’s what I did. So I know how much of a struggle it can be. In the days before TH-cam I knew a few window cleaners who I worked with and picked up tips from. So the idea behind my channel is really just an extension of that. Often I am making videos that I wish I had seen when I was starting out. I have had jobs cancel for a cheaper window cleaner also, but I have also had customers come back to me when then realise that I provide a quality reliable service. So at the end of the day, I think that if you can build a good reputation with your customers, you will always have work.😃👍🏼
Hi there.
what do you think on this machine pump bottle with the motorised unit charger in this video would be good for in the soft wash industry, is there a lot of scope there do you think, and how much is it and the pole extension. Thanks
Not really. Better off getting a Gardiner backpack.😃👍🏼

Keith Baron I think it’s worth spending out on decent kit that will do the job and last. I will show it in use as soon as I can.😃👍🏼
would it be good for cleaning render and masonry ?
Maybe if it’s a small section. Maybe a trolley system would be better for that kind of thing.👍🏼
Hi can you tell me does the splashing on the wall and pavement stain and then create another job?Thanks Colin
Colin Fleming It’s never caused any issues that I’ve noticed. Everything gets washed with plenty of water. But I would be careful about removing hanging baskets or possibly protecting flower beds if there are any.😃👍🏼
Nice bit if kit, thanks for posting.
Gary Lawrence 💦😃👍🏼
Thanks for the video. Looks like a good bit of kit but a bit pricey for me. I like the idea of the solution foaming up though
Squeaky Clean Dave It certainly is a very well made bit of kit. I’m looking forward to putting it to good use.💦😃👍🏼

Yeah, I use a backpack to apply biocide now because it’s so easy and convenient that way. Not through a reel though, just straight up the pole.😃👍🏼
@@aemackintosh Really helpful thanks a lot! 👍
thats a cool tool........you get all the best goodies
Dave The Window Licker Thanks. Looking forward to putting it to good use.💦😃👍🏼
Probably a freebie lol 😜

@@grondheise I used the CF kit to apply a 50/50 mix of Hypo on my patio area home and it worked perfectly
Do ionics actually sell any because I've not read a good review yet at the end of the day it's just a vacuum pump
No, it’s not great. Overpriced, like most Ionic products.
What size pole is it?
The vertigo pole is ionic new version of the grafter pole. I went to the road show the other week in Cardiff. and got to be honest the sprayer looks cool but for the money it's a no no for me, and that's hard for me to say as all my equipment is ionic.

Is there anyway doin further review on vertigo?
Looks good but £650 for the sprayer and £50 for the solution does seem expensive 😬
julian pierce
Crazy money - gardiner backpack and da components sprayer for £130 and does the same job
He was probably gifted it for reviewing as he has many followers 😜👌🏻

A.E.Mackintosh Cleaning Services be interesting to see how you get on with it 👍🏻
@@aemackintosh that's fine Ashley when you get it for free 🤔
For the price tag they've got on that they should be called robbers there's no way of justifying that price 👌👍
Daniel I don’t have a backpack so I reckon I will get loads of use out of it.😃👍🏼
@@aemackintosh definitely mate it looks a brilliant bit of kit to be honest it's just the price tag I think it's unbelievable👌👍

Looks a quality bit of kit, but a bit pricey at £650.
Would be nice to have 1 though 😁
