Clean gutters from the ground

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Drain Doctor, the combined plumbing and drain repair company, is rolling out a new commercial gutter cleaning system to franchisees across its network.

The system is suitable for quick, easy gutter clearance as part of planned maintenance. It is designed to operate at up to 12 metres (39 feet) from the ground – typically the height of a four-storey office block or factory roof. The machine’s powerful wet and dry suction capability means that gutters can be cleared of moss, leaves and fetid water without mess.

The cost-effective solution complies with current health and safety regulations about working at height. Drain Doctor can clean gutters over difficult to reach areas, over outbuildings or in confined spaces, without the need for ladders or expensive scaffolding, cherry pickers or scissor lifts.

Difficult to reach areas and places with restricted access can be reached easily thanks to the long, lightweight tubing. Technicians working on the ground can see what’s happening at gutter level thanks to the system’s ‘eye in the sky’, a fully recordable wireless camera with a monitor that is fitted to the Sky Vac’s tubing at the technician’s eye level.
