Reaching new heights
November 27th 2007

There are five poles in the HiFlo Advanced light duty range allowing access to heights of between 5-27ft. The three poles in the HiFlo Advanced+ medium duty range extend to a maximum of 35ft.

The HiFlo Advanced poles are made from glassfibre which makes them lightweight and suitable for use up to 27ft. For extra strength, the HiFlo Advanced+ poles are constructed of a hybrid of carbon and glass fibre and reach to heights to 35ft. The poles’ light structure and ergonomic design eliminates the risk of falls from cleaning at height. Window cleaners can move freely at ground level while cleaning large areas at height.

The HiFlo Advanced and Advanced+ poles also feature improved clamping technology. Four inserts on each clamp grip the pole evenly rather than pinching in one particular place which can cause excessive stress at a single point and can weaken the pole. The hose feeding water to the pole is reinforced so it is far more resistant to wear and tear than a standard hose.

The new range of HiFlo Advanced and Advanced+ can be used with four types of brushes. The HiFlo Oval brush is available in two sizes (27cm & 40cm) and is ideal for use on large areas as well as the 27cm HiFlo Rectangular brush. For reaching tricky areas the HiFlo Radius brush is angled and has a rubber edge. All brushes have brass jets fitted. Brushes can be easily removed and replaced without the use of tools. All poles are fitted with an adjustable angle gooseneck allowing for optimum contact between the brush and the surface being cleaned.
