What are the best water fed poles for window cleaning?

The most popular for many years have been the Tucker poles. If you can find a Cricket pole, get it. A great tool. They were once sold by J Racenstein. Don't know if they are made anymore.

Ettore is my favorite... I have a 32' in carbon fiber.... a decent weight at that height

Scott, on a side note, suggesting a Tucker pole shows how long you have been out of it... LOL

Too true, Lance. I was actively cleaning windows until 5 years ago, but that was ground floor or residential. The last high rise I cleaned with water-fed pole was 15 years ago.

There are some out now that go as high as 66' .... total reach is 71ft.....lite weight carbon fiber...about 15 LBS. I believe they are the "extel" brand.... around $2,100.
But a 5 story building could be done safely from the ground

ok fellas this is more my area than carpet cleaning. I just purchased a ionic 28' carbon fiber waterfed pole monday. arrived today. it is rugged, durable, weighs like 7lbs totally extended, and easy to use. working height is 32'. if you wanted to go with something higher, they have the gardiner 54' waterfed pole that is around 1600.00. i have not used this particular pole but it has good reviews and i have not heard anything negative about it. J Racenstein is who i buy all my supplies from and they are a top notch supplier. ask for Pattie Johnson and tell her jake the window cleaner sent ya.
