Ah Vivaro!, that's what I want 😔 Looks good as it is, start pimping it up and it'll make you look juvenile 😌 One thing I've come to realise is less is definitely more. If you start listing all the things you do you come across cheap and low-grade. People see you working and can visit your website for more services. So my thoughts : Name, Tagline, Website /Soc media, and contact details. Looking forwards to seeing it ! (Btw, buying a vinyl cutter will save you tonnes, for all sorts of advertising 👍)

Here in the Netherlands we have company’s with l2h2 or l3h2 vans. Jumper or boxer or sprinter from Mercedes with every thing on the inside At the back of the van the tank with the hose, on top of that a steel structure fore the pole en on top of that the ladder. Nobody can steel the ladder anymore. At the side doors a high pressure kit and other equipment. Sorry for my English Hope for more wfp video Greets

Looks great I personally have an xline smaller tank 350L which gives me around 4 41/2 hours of continuous window cleaning and I have space for other cleaning equipment too. I’m sure a 500 L upright will work a treat in there 👍

@@chaseybears that’s great news. I have a transit custom swb and I find there is room for the jetwash , gutter vac and the window Cleaning trolley with space to spare. If I have a busy day and need more water, I bring some barrels of pure to make up the difference 👍

@ched999uk 3 ай бұрын

Make it stand out with the signwriting. Mods will cost you on insurance! Maybe a 400lts tank widthways between side doors and rear arches. That way you have all the space at the front with easy access doors plus some space at rear for kit. Maybe draw plan and see if you can get scaffold tower in, pressure washer and kit and see what is left for tank. I assume you want to keep flexibility of pw on wheels as you might get a skid mount in rear and still space at front for tower? You could use the window cleaning tank as a buffer tank - dual purpose?

@rickyandreasingleton 3 ай бұрын

Will you go for a Streamline Varitech tank again? I really rate their equipment. Maybe one of their upright tanks, that should still leave enough room for a Mi Tower and pressure washer? Maybe a van mounted pressure washer that can feed off the Streamline tank too? Then again that means the back of the van has to be left unlocked at all times. Too many equipment options and things to think about eh?!😅 Looking forward to seeing how it all pans out.

@aemackintosh 3 ай бұрын

No, it won’t be streamline. There are a lot of options. But I’ve got a good idea of what I want to achieve.

Have 1 with a 650 upright and a fixed jetwash. It may look big now but you will fill that in no time. Probably would have gone for a bigger van, unless your able to store equipment so you can keep room in it. They drive nice tho and even when full they dont feel sluggish like some smaller vans. (Not criticism either, i love the channel and what u do) 👌

@aemackintosh 3 ай бұрын

@bobshep1012 3 ай бұрын

Tbf I've been impressed with your other vans and you've made them work well so I'm sure whatever you do with this 1 will work spot on. Just 1 more thing... familiarise yourself with how to change the language on your van display. These have a thing of changing to French every so often so you'll be driving in kmh not mph and the screen does the same. 😂

@GlideLtd 3 ай бұрын

I would put a square 500L between the sliding doors and mount electric hose reels on top to be used out the side doors. And then you have the rear for the add on services equipment. Or you could do what I did and put an upright in the rear so the rear is for windows but gotta use them twin sliding doors 1:49

Hi Ash hope all is well. Iv just recently found your KZfaq channel and it’s great. I’m looking at going out with a water fed pole system on my own. I’m wondering what’s the best to start out and should I filter my water to purify it into a tank I’m the garden or can I do it straight into the tank in my van! I’m still going through your vids so apologies if youv done one already that’s may answer my questions cheers keep up the good work.

@Jasonfarming 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the info guys! Iv just checked my local filling station and the closed one is 40 minutes away from me so don’t think it’s worth it. My garage is about 30m away from my house would I be better of filling a tank then into the van or just the van system? Also probably a daft question but Iv got a £5000 budget I work part time as a postie and want to go out on my own Iv got my business cards ready do I just bit the bullet and get the equipment and post my cards?? I know lots of people from posting and the good think is I can hopefully build up my business going window cleaning in the afternoons until it pick up. Any advice would be great thank you so much.
