and
What about you! And welcome to another Premier Lawns video. Today we're cleaning out gutters, safely, from the ground
safely from the ground. I bought this system just over a year ago
it's a Nilfisk maxi 2 75 wet/dry vacuum cleaner it's mains voltage or 240
volts and it has two times 1500 watt motors on it
And then to go with it these are the gardener tan modular poles
fully carbon-fiber
the poles are only 510 grams each
this system let's me clean areas up to 11 meters high or three stories you can
really get up on all the awkward areas with no loss in power because as I said this
Nilfisk it's really it, it's a bit of a beast
I tried various e different camera methods that be able to see into the gutters putting
the camera on the end of the gutter vac pole but it's very hard on your phone battery
to collect it in ther Bluetooth Bluetooth and it just drains the life out of your battery
and if you're out cleaning gutters all day doesn't really workthe best so we'll
find the best method it is just to put the GoPro or a cheap acting camera on
the end of one of these water fed poles and then we'll just pull up and check
the gutters after we do every one we check every gutter after we've done a clean
just take two minutes though in fairness you actually don't need to check you can
whenever you have the gutter vac up there you can feel any blockages your rock
backwards a few times always get everything but the camera just adds
peace of mind for the customer we'll always say we'll clean the gutters, if
you're in whenever we clean them I'll show you the video no bother at all if you're not
then I'll send you a couple of screenshots of your clean gutter
always make it clear to the customer time of quoting we only vacuum it out we can't do repairs
' or if there's a blocked pipe we can't get up and repair it
for insurance reasons they're just not cover me to get up there as long as
you make that clear the time of quoting and I provide written quotes through
Jobber and it's always on those quotes I have never I've never had a problem
First point to make this is my only machine that runs on electric and how I operate, I
say to customers the night before whenever I'm comin
I'll send them another reminder via Jobber, and say look I'm coming if you're not gonna be there
did you leave a power lead out a window and so far I've never had any issues without
at all
last year I left the vac in for winter servicing because I thought I
was good winter servicing and turned out to be and I've only really
marketed the current existing customers
we only do it for two orthree months of the year and I don't actually have
space for that many clients but I've found that I've built up that have built up a nice run.
At the end every clean we'll put a clean bucket of water through it
it just cleans all the filters and stops all the muck spreading all overt the van
we use these things here it's a masterplug rcd safety adapter
also carry one of these in the van all the time whenever we're out doing the gutter cleaning
It's splash-proof extensional lead, really good sometimes you're working in damp
conditions you can get all these things off Amazon I'll put a link in
