Don't have a wet vac.

Get one! Really useful for all sorts of plumbing jobs apart from
radiators. The Earlex is good, about £40 as a Wickes brand, or same price
from Screwfix as an Earlex.


Beat me to it! Only use them a few times a year but SO useful. Typically
when moving radiators, unblocking washing machine fluff filter, and emptying
gullies.


I have one too but use it a lot more than that - in *dry* mode it serves
as an effective conventional vaccuum cleaner (or had you forgotten
that?!) I use mine for h/d DIY stuff so the normal household cleaber
just gets the lighter stuff.
