Why Buy A Gardiner Waterpole?
There are a lot of different brands of waterpole available. So why should you buy a Gardiner waterpole?
Gardiner Pole Systems was founded in 2005 by window cleaners who wanted to make Pure Water cleaning more accessible and offer the best quality, best performing products at great prices. They’re a family run business with a worldwide reputation of excellent customer service and quality products. They’re the #1 waterpole brand in the UK, and they’re our #1 selling waterpole here in the US.
We’re confident in their longstanding brand, so much so we back it up with our Love it or Return it satisfaction guarantee. If you purchase a Gardiner waterpole or accessory and you don’t absolutely love it, contact us to return it for a full product refund.
Many of Gardiner’s products are innovative and unique in the Pure Water industry—like their square lock system and their quick-changing capsule-style brush jets.
What’s The Gardiner Square Lock System?
All of Gardiner’s waterpoles use the Gardiner square lock system. The square lock gooseneck snaps into the square lock brush socket and is held together with a metal button to keep it from coming loose.
The Gardiner square lock system gives you a firm attachment that won’t come loose like Euro thread fittings. So your brush will always stay in place and won’t spin around.
What’s The Gardiner Brush Capsule System?
Most brush jets are pressed into the brush block and difficult, if not impossible, to change once they’re installed. Gardiner has found a solution to this problem with their quick-changing capsule-style brush jets. These capsules twist in and out with ease, or you can use the capsule widget to make it even quicker and easier.
Your Gardiner brush will come with two black 2mm pencil jets already installed. But don’t let that limit you. Try the smaller 1.4mm pencil jets (blue) or the larger 3mm pencil jets (green). There are also fan jets available in either 50 degree (red) or 100 degree (grey).
With brush jets that are so easy to change, you can try them all!
Why Is This Waterpole So Much More Expensive Than An Aluminum Pole??
Aluminum extension poles are great for short lengths, but they’re heavy and they’re only available up to about 30 feet. Now, compare that to a pole that’s more advanced, with carbonfiber technology.
You won’t believe how much lighter and more rigid the Gardiner Xtreme X3 HiMod waterpole is compared to an aluminum extension pole. Just compare the 7-section Xtreme 35 foot that weighs less than 4 pounds to a 30 foot, 5-section aluminum pole coming in at 8 pounds! That’s more than twice as much! That’s a difference you’ll feel after working all day. The Gardiner Xtreme X3 HiMod waterpoles will also flex less, giving you more control and less fatigue from all of the extra movement.
The Gardiner Xtreme X3 HiMod is an ideal waterpole for those with injuries or strain-related issues.
That’s why our Gardiner waterpoles are so popular for Pure Water cleaning AND traditional cleaning!
Which Style Of Gardiner Waterpole Should I Choose?
There are several different styles of Gardiner waterpoles, the Xtreme X3 HiMod is just one of them. Which waterpole you choose will depend on your cleaning needs.
The most important considerations are HEIGHT and BUDGET.
The Gardiner Xtreme HiMod waterpoles are available up to 47 feet. That’s 52 feet of working height. This will allow you to clean up to 5 stories, which will cover all residential houses and many commercial buildings, like apartments or office buildings.
If you’re looking to clean higher than 47 feet, you can add carbonfiber or HiMod #10 modular sections to your 47 foot Xtreme. These sections are modular, meaning you don’t leave them on the pole all the time, just when you’re using them, but you can add multiples of them to the pole because they fit onto a #9 section and then onto one another. We only recommend up to 3 of the carbonfiber modular #10, but you can build your pole up to 80 or 90 feet with the HiMod modular sections!
The Gardiner Xtreme waterpoles are the high-range of price and materials available from Gardiner, because they’re 100% High Modulus carbonfiber. This makes them a great pole for the highest working heights. If you’re looking for something a little less expensive, a shorter pole in the Gardiner SLX or CLX is a good option.

Does The Gardiner Xtreme HiMod Come With Everything I Need To Start Cleaning?
The items listed above are a complete kit to make your waterpole ready to clean right out of the box, but for certain jobs, you may find you need other accessories to be more efficient. What kind of accessories are available?
Scrub Pad Holders And Pads
Maybe you have a first time cleaning or windows with stuff like bird droppings or hard water stains that doesn’t come off with just brush bristles. For this, you can add a scrub pad holder or the Gardiner Super Scraper. These items are listed in the Pure Water Accessories category.
Brushes
We include the Gardiner Super Lite brush because it is our best-selling brush. It’s a great all-around brush because of the medium stiffness bristles and the dual trim setup. But don’t let that limit you. Gardiner has a ton of great brushes available. Wider brushes, sill brushes, TaperTec brushes—you’re sure to find the perfect brush for your needs. They’re all listed in the Waterpole Brushes category.
Goosenecks
Gardiner has a variety of goosenecks available, some with an extra swivel point, some which are longer for deep ledges. That’s why we have a whole category for Waterpole Goosenecks.
Brush Jets
Gardiner’s innovative capsule-style brush jets are so easy to change that you can keep a few different styles on hand to handle any job. There are three different sizes of pencil jet, giving you more or less spray. There’s also two sizes of fan jets. Fan jets are good for hydrophobic windows where the water doesn’t sheet nicely and it instead beads up like a freshly waxed car. This isn’t ideal for clean rinsing, meaning you have to clean slower. But fan jets help with this, so you can clean faster and do more windows in the same amount of time. Brush jets are listed in the Pure Water Accessories category.
Brush Sockets
We have sockets for your brush that change the angle or add an extra swivel. Brush sockets are listed in the Pure Water Accessories category.
