The Ultimate Guide To Best Telescopic Poles

How do you "choose the right telescopic pole for your project"? If you browse through our catalog, you will be overwhelmed by our extension pole product lines.

EXTENTOOL supply professional and honest service.

 

Different lengths, materials, threaded ends, fluted, fixed lengths - the list of options goes on and on. With so many different extension poles to choose from, we thought it would be helpful if we provided a help guide.

 

Start by asking yourself these three questions.

 

What will I be using the telescopic pole for? How often will I use it? How high or how far do I need to reach? The answers to these questions will help you narrow down your choices.

 

An example: A homeowner will be painting the exterior of their home this summer. They will want to use the pole to paint the inside of their home sometime later this year. Their home is two stories and they have a cathedral ceiling at the entrance of their home.

 

 

Because of the multiple uses and high range needed, you will need to choose either a heavy duty or professional type extension pole. In addition, the following rule of thumb applies when determining the length of extension pole to purchase.

 

Your height minus 6 inches, plus the length of a fully extended pole, tells you how high you can reach with a pole of that length. Most two-story homes will require you to use an extension pole of at least 18 feet.

 

A heavier fiberglass pole suitable for painting may not be the best choice if you intend to use it for dusting only. For dusting, you can choose lightweight aluminum or steel extension poles.

 

When choosing between aluminum or steel rods, most aluminum rods and sliders are anodized to prevent rusting and provide smooth extensions. Steel rods will rust over time, so if your application requires contact with water, do not purchase steel rods.

Telescoping Wand Buyer's Guide

How To Pick The Perfect Telescoping Wand

If you've ever wondered how to get the grime off the top corners of your home's siding, look no further.

 

Don't be the person who tries standing on the roof of their vehicle or an unstable object while attempting to use your pressure washer. It's dangerous, and there's a proper tool for that.

 

 

What is a Telescoping Wand?

A Telescoping Wand is an extender that enables you to keep your feet safely on the ground while allowing you to reach 1, 2, or even 3 stories high.


Most wands are made of fiberglass and are lightweight and inexpensive.
These are meant to be used with cold water. Aluminum telescoping wands are heavier, but that makes them more durable for professional use. Professional-grade wands can even be used with commercial hot water pressure washers.

 

How Does a Telescoping Wand Work?

Telescoping wands have a high-pressure hose that is guided up the inside of the pole and connects at the tip. This lets you set the length from fully-retracted to fully-extended, and anywhere in between.

 

Telescoping wands will flex when the pressure is turned on, and again when it's turned off, so you must be at least 10 feet away from power lines at all times. Because of this pressure, using a telescoping extender attachment requires a 3/8" hose to connect to your pressure washer.

 

 

What Are the Benefits of a Telescoping Wand?

  1. Safety: remain safely on the ground while cleaning
  2. Clean second story surfaces (windows, siding, roof, etc.)
  3. Clean out the gutters using a hook attachment
  4. No need to use a ladder or have to move it around
  5. Ability to use quick-connect tips

 

The Benefits of Telescoping Wand Belts

Holding a pole up in the air can be tiring. A telescoping wand belt will support some of the weight and add stability, letting you work longer and more effectively.


You can snap any quick connect nozzle onto the angled end. Check out the reviews for handy tips on individual projects like washing siding and gutter cleaning.


If you have to clean up high but would rather not use a telescoping wand, take a look at the new Ladder Saver nozzle in our Spray Tip section.
