On Thursday 28th February 2019, Rory, one of our technical team members of staff, attended a SkyVac gutter cleaning demonstration at University College in Oxford.
Introducing The College’s Issue With Their Gutters
The issue the client has is that the historic building has high level, hidden valley gutters that are difficult to maintain. The quantity of over growing trees in the grounds makes the risk of the gutters filling with waste more frequent. Henceforth, the gutters are constantly filling up with debris.
The maintenance staff on-site only have access to the gutters through small roof hatches. Once through the hatches, the cleaners need to crawl along narrow parapets. This results in a massive health and safety issue.
SkyVac To The Rescue
The SkyVac Gutter Cleaning Systems available from Promain negates this H&S issue. By being able to access the valley gutters from ground level, the systems provide a safe environment for all involved.
Inspecting The Gutters
The first port of call was to inspect the gutters using a SkyVac Camera and Monitor. This way we were able to ascertain which gutters actually needed cleaning.
Leaving the camera set up on a gutter that was in need of a clean, the SkyVac Industrial 85 Gutter Cleaning Machine was then used to clear the valley gutter of the leaf debris. It was easy to see where the debris has accumulated due to the use of the camera.
Using the Elite Poles with the Vacuum Release Value made sure that removing any larger clumps was safer and quicker. This means the contractor can keep both hands on the base of the pole at ground level at all times.
Using the camera system in this way makes it very easy for the operator. This is rather than attaching camera to the gutter cleaning pole.
Finally, the contractor will remove the waste from the gutter cleaning machine. This waste is ideal to put onto the garden beds to degrade into compost. The SkyVac Industrial 85‘s drum was then washed out with clean water.
