I was at a job yesterday at a lakehouse. I'm sure some of you already know what I'm gonna say.
I meet my customers and the husband's first response to me was "Are you Zerorez?" Kinda pissed, I looked at him and said, "not today I'm not". So after a few minutes of him asking about the chemistry, and me describing the difference between their water and mine, and the difference in how much longer my equipment lasts...he seems satisfied that I know what I'm talking about with the type of water I use to clean carpet.
So now I'm outside setting up. He's out with me and asks me if I need a hose hookup. He brings me this little white hose and asks if this will do. I said yes sir. He then says, "it's potable water". I never heard that term before, so I said, "ah". That's my dumbass term for "I don't care". After he turns it on, he says "I use this lake water for everything". WTF!? I QUICKLY disconnected it, and went to another spicket where he was bragging about how his water was specially filtered and it was the best water. Then I said, "I need water clean enough to drink to clean carpet". His response was, "We all drink Lakewater". Something wasn't right. I hoped that he was talking about the lake water going to a water purifying place.
So with my frustration, I came back with "Is that water clean or not?". He told me no.
I related this to his first question about zerorez and how interested he was in their water. I could tell he was one who is overly concerned about water.
Why would he suggest to use lake water and not the clean water first? The more important question is, why the hell didn't I bring my own water? Big eye opener.
Because if nobody was there, I still would've used that little white hose, because it was the first thing I saw and it's not labeled for anything different. Imagine the callback I would've gotten on that
I'm in the market for a water tank. Any suggestions?
