1st day on the base

[Mikey P]

The maintenance staff had to laugh.. "Today you get to see our two extremes..."



The unit in the video took 2 hours, the prior job, same floor plan but filthy vinyl and carpet in the same great condition, took a bit over 3..

Easy Peezy..

Are you using your carpet wand on the vinyl or a hard surface tool?

 

[Mikey P]

both..

 

[Mikey P]

the SS12 on light (or no) soil and a hard surface wand.

Today I gave the Dang HS w/ swivel another shot. It has issues but who care it cheap.

Don't scratch the vinyl

It was pretty cold out today...upper 20s


Had me wondering about what it takes to freeze the equipment when it's not running

That is probably not to bad, just start up your rig at home and build up a little heat, with you driving and your heater on I think you would be okay, but wouldn't want much colder than that.
Nice units to take care of.

Lots of Duk guards on the unit!

Cool though!

Congrats on such a good contract!

Time. You can get buy with an hour or two but its risky to leave it outside all day.

We've had plenty of damage to machines while extracting water in the winter. Even though the machine was running for hours there have been years when we spent big bucks replacing freeze damaged brass on WDR units.

When its bitter cold and blowing through the truck, you still need to be cautious and bring in wands and tools or they risk damage.

I carry my wands in the front seat but of course I have a PTO so it stays running.

 

[Mikey P]

I have a heater/AC in the very back of my van down low..


kind handy...

Freezing is not even something I think about in the upper 20's , not even with the wind blowing hard. 10 degrees and below with the wind blowing , then take precaution , doesn't mean you can't be out cleaning all day, just means you don't want to shut the machine down for 30 minutes with the door open. Your new adventure's in carpet cleaning are very interesting.

 

[Mikey P]

I'll say..

 

[Todd Millar]

@Mikey P , just curious how did you come across getting to clean on base for all the move outs ?

 

[hogjowl]

Minority owned business.

There's no one else like HiM.

 

[Mikey P]

Spastic dork was right under woman owner and native American choices




They called me.


I met their flooring installer yesterday

"I've been here for ten years, you're the 18th carpet cleaner I've seen here now. Every one them was horrible, what makes you different?"



Watch and see there my little polyester filament covered friend....
