many thanks lynnxa I cant thank you enough and you keith!!!
AS for 'what' is a waterfed pole it is a carbon fibre pole about 60ft long with a brush head fitted to the top. 100 % pure (di ionised) water is then pumped from my trailer up the pole onto the brush head to enable me to clean windows very high up without leaving the ground. I have a very successful business with this in the uk so am going to give it a go in spain.

sorry to keep posting but I also have the following to translate:

Reach & Wash Pure Waterfed Pole System: Cleaning with advanced pure water technology

Compared to other cleaning methods, Reach & Wash system saves our clients an average of 40% of their total cleaning costs!


Cleans up to 50 feet (5 floor's)

Cleans windows, glass roofs, signs, atria, panelling, canopies and facades with ease.

Cleans frames at the same time as the glass at no extra cost

Eliminates the use of ladders

Eliminates the need for expensive and hazardous high access equipment

Operators work from the safety of the ground (100% safe)

Reaches previously inaccessible windows with ease

Easily reaches windows over obstructions such as cars, lawns or flower beds.

Environmentally friendly as no chemicals are used.

Maintains privacy with reduced disturbance



This relatively new method of window cleaning has revolutionised the cleaning industry as its many benefits far outweigh other cleaning methods. By using 100% pure laboratory graded water which is then pumped through carbon fibre telescopic poles, we are able to access and clean windows to heights in excess of 50 feet (5 floors).
There are no Health and Safety risks impeding its use in any way, making it by far the safest and most cost effective method of cleaning, with excellent results.
On average, compared to other access methods, we save our clients over 40% of their total cleaning costs by using this safe and reliable method. We highly recommend it to our clients.

This will be my whole broucher done then as I got my younger cousin to translate 3 pages for me but he got sick of me not paying him!!!!
If you tell me how to send karma I will send a bucket load!!!!!!!!!

Don´t worry...we were only teasing you.

However, to give us lots of karma you click on the "karma" button underneath our names.

I´m gonna have a break now as I am being told we need to go to the supermarket , but I´ll have a go at the translate when I get back. In any case, we need to get one of the native speakers on this thread because the text is very technical and a literal translation word for word will not work.

actually does the water go through the pole?

if so, you might be better using the word 'tubo' rather than 'poste'

I´ve done the short sentences, but I come back to the paragraph later.

You still need a native speaker to come along and check this though.

Anyway Lynnxa, I´m interested to know your suggested translation for "pure water fed pole"...!! I´m not sure I even understand what that is supposed to mean in English!
A guy in Mijas I know had one on his house, sooo hot.
There used to be a company advertise in the Surinenglish, but can`t see the add now.
