Essential safety information

Protective construction does not make working near live electricity safe

Kevlar insulated sections provide an additional protective measure. They must never replace a proper site assessment, safe working distances, suitable training or professional advice. Overhead power lines should always be treated as live and dangerous.

Professional pole systems

Reach gutters safely from ground level

Combine lightweight carbon pole construction with a powerful Cyclone gutter vacuum system to clear high level gutters without routine ladder access.

High reach pole systems

Build the working height needed for domestic and commercial gutter cleaning using modular pole sections.

Powerful Cyclone suction

Pair your pole kit with a professional Cyclone gutter vacuum system designed to remove leaves, moss and heavy debris.

Safety led specification

Two Kevlar protected lower sections are included with qualifying carbon pole kits rather than being treated as an optional extra.

Supporting safer pole work

Look up before any pole goes up

Equip2clean supports the Look Up Look Out safety message. Before assembling or raising gutter vacuum poles, inspect the full working area for overhead power lines and other electrical hazards.

Insulated equipment is an additional precaution, not a substitute for keeping a safe distance and stopping work when the risk is unclear.

Which pole kits include the Kevlar sections? +
Qualifying Carbon Push Fit and Carbon Clamp Fit gutter vacuum pole kits include two Kevlar insulated lower sections as standard. Check the individual product listing for the precise contents of your chosen kit.
Where are the Kevlar sections positioned? +
They are used at the bottom, operator end of the assembled pole system. This is the principal area held and controlled during normal operation.
What does tested at 35 kV mean? +
The laboratory sample was subjected to a 35 kV power frequency withstand voltage test for one minute. The recorded leakage current was 0.0 mA and the sample experienced no flashover or breakdown under the stated test conditions.
Can I read the laboratory report? +
Yes. A redacted copy of report STD526000272 is embedded on this page and can also be opened as a full PDF. Commercially sensitive supplier details have been removed while the test information and results remain visible.
Does this make the pole safe near overhead electricity? +
No. The protective construction is an additional safety measure. It does not make working close to live electrical equipment safe and must never replace risk assessment, safe working distances or professional guidance.
Was the complete commercial pole kit tested? +
The laboratory report relates to the submitted three section, one metre test sample identified in report STD526000272. The customer pole kits include two Kevlar insulated lower operating sections as part of their supplied configuration.
