  • I demonstrate this accessory kit; specifically the plastic leaf sucking elbow with plastic piping; connected to a 14 gallon Ridgid wet/dry shop vacuum. I clean leaves from a section of gutters on my home. The plastic piping and elbow allow you to stand on the ground, while sucking leaves and debris from gutters. The video shows the setup of the kit as well as the performance in cleaning gutters.

    Hay guy, I like what you did. I have a shopvac and I am going to try it your way. PS: I live in a two story home so, I have professional gutter cleaners come out every two years to get the higher parts of my house.
    Thank you very much for this idea.

    I have one kit coming from Home Depot. I chose the system because it will have a larger ID than the plumbing ideas and weigh a whole lot less. I will also buy an adapter to attach it to my Makita 36v blower. Thanks for the video

    If it’s too flimsy you could tape a couple joints of conduit to the outside of the pipe to stiffen it up.

    I purchased this gutter cleaning system along with a Rigid 16 gallon 6.5 HP stainless vac. It works great! No more ladders for me. I later added a 13 foot extension tubing as I like the added reach from the vac and its easier to store than the 20 foot extension. My home is only one story high. I don't know how this would all work out on a two or three story house. It would be a hand full. Where did you get your curved mirror?

    Great idea. Those 2 extra extension pieces you bought are 20.5" long each. So you added 41" to the existing gutter cleaning kit? How many feet high up do you estimate you can reach with your setup in the video?

    You should add some affiliate links for the products. Does the attachment/hose get clogged immediately if using for gutters that are packed? I guess if someone neglects their gutters for years there would be a lot of compost in the gutters from leaf decomposition. That might be less likely to clog.
    ETA: I watched further into your video and my question was answered: Yes, it clogs but still works after you unclog it.

      If someone neglects their gutters for years, this product is not going to work. If the gutters are packed with dirt, it would be like using a shop vac to suck up a field of dirt. It is not going to work

      @@usagutterservices6775 Thanks. What do you do if you have a client with a problem like that? Up and down the ladder pull the stuff out, then using a hose to force the clogs in the downspouts out? Sometimes one moves into a house with already compacted gutters.

      The home depot sells the ridgid brand. The foam filter is for water vacuuming and the paper for dry.The filters are expensive, especially for very fine dust vacuuming but it's a small price to pay so those particles don't get in you lungs.

    • @justmejo9008
      @justmejo9008 2 года назад

      Looks like the regular filter in the vac. I’ve heard people say they take the filter out to do this job, but I would not recommend that. Just check the filter frequently. I have two filters so that I can vacuum one off while fresh one is inside the machine. When that one gets a little to clog they take it out put in the one I vacuumed out and clean that one.
