The right gutter vacuum depends on one question: are you cleaning your own gutters a few times a year, or cleaning other people's gutters for a living? Get that right and the rest of the choice is straightforward.

For homeowners: single & double motor machines

For domestic use, a single motor machine has plenty of suction for leaves, moss and silt. We recommend two models.

• Cyclone 1700: a single motor machine that's easy to move around and simple to store.
• Cyclone Lite 60 litre: a twin motor, lightweight machine with a 60 litre tank, so you can clear a whole house before emptying it.

Poles for domestic use

Most homeowners pair their machine with our aluminium pole range, which works effectively up to around 24 to 28 feet. That covers most two-storey homes.

If you'd like something lighter, or want the extra peace of mind of a non-conductive pole, there's a carbon fibre option. Its bottom two sections are made of Kevlar, which doesn't conduct electricity. That matters because those are the sections you're holding while the top of the pole is up near overhead cables.

For Professionals: two and three motor machines

If you're cleaning gutters day in, day out, you need more suction and a bigger tank. That's where two and three motor machines come in.

• Cyclone Lite 80 litre and 100 litre: more motors and more capacity, while staying light enough to move between jobs easily.
• Cyclone 3600 All Terrain and All Terrain 100: our heavy duty machines, built for rough ground, commercial sites and all-day use.

More suction means you can clear compacted debris faster and use longer poles without losing performance. For a professional, that's more jobs per day.
