Been looking at the gutter vac, looks a good bit of kit but you need to plug it into a power supply, so you need to use customers electric or have a really hefty generator,
is there any type of gutter vac that runs from a petrol engine ?
could they not replace the electric motors with a direct drive from an engine ?
Thanks Liam.

the upkeeper is way overated by Ionics and it cant hold a candle to the Omnivac in both reach and suction and also price,  I have an Omnivac and never have a problem with getting a power sauce from a customer.

the omnivac is by far the best one on the market and it retails around the £1500 mark  but believe me it pays for itself as mine has
