Actually, I suspect he does. He's been reading up on all the "help me with my SS" threads on here.

there is nothing wrong with that machine...there are bunch of them out there and they are running hard and strong and the guys behind the wand are happy as hell..........its only hiccup..is that it produces so much heat and it has to have a few adjustments....
a slide in machine that can produce that much heat and vacuum with out a secondary type of heating system....thats a problem most guys would love to have.....

So confusing when identical twins reach such radically different conclusion
.Things on MB are not as clear cut as they used to be.

He needs to sell that over-engineered thing and open a repair and supply shop.

I have heard nothing but great things about all this heat the 570 creates. I've even seen the temp gauge pics way up there. It always makes me think about running Adam Hales V that he sold to my friend. My truck was in the shop for some trans reapair and I ran it for 5 days. The water temp gauge would climb to 260 really fast and sustain around 245. Problem is, running my wand or the hoss at 100' my inline temp gauge never once got above 200. And was far from sustaining that. It did sustain 170 ATW. and the outside temp was around 40 degrees. Point is, temperature gauges at the machine can be rediculous. The TCS is going to give you true sustained temps. So far nobody has given any evidence that the 570 can do the same. If your happy with butler heat you will probably be happy with 570 heat.

it would be easy for me to put a temp gauge at my wand or zipper and show what it can do...but I really see no point in it...there is a large amount of these machines out there...and everyone that runs one of theses more then agrees and will tell you the exact same thing...it can produce and hold some remarkable heat and deliver it to you..
and no it was not cold out side..we were in the high 90's that day...

I've hear the same thing over and over about the butler high heat. Put a temp gauge on the HOSS and clean a whole apartment when outside temps are 30 degrees.

Of course that Diesel Chief would probably clean great and leave some $ for other toys and marketing.

my thermal wave will lose about 20 degrees in the winter...ambient temps play a role on that one...so far the 570 is not effected..also take into consideration that I am not in the northern states...but I have talked with a few and I have not heard to much about heat loss......(?)

That's because very few cleaners have temperature gauges on their wands. I'm afraid if we did, we'd ALL be embarrassed.
But I'd be $10,000 LESS embarrassed!

Have any of you ever sat in a 110° hot tub?

Can I just say WOW! Jim Pemberton is as amazing as you guys say he is. What a man of integrity. Arnold gave him a call to let him know that we have decided to go with the Cheif II D and Jim just started asking arnold questions about layout and wanted to make sure that we had everything in its place for efficiency and easy use and ended with thanking us for letting him know and not just disappearing on him. Gained an incredible amount of respect for him on a more personal level. I have so appreciated all of the input. We do have a divider panel behind the seat. It gets cold in PA over the winter. We will plum the exhaust out so we don't get the film in the van. We typically do commercial so smell in the customers home is really not a problem for us. Controlling the heat is a little bit of a concern but I sm sure we will figure that one out. We will take the van to GA in a couple of weeks for the install. Will post pics. I can't thank you all enough. And thanks Mike for the board.

We have not. Arnold did quite a bit of research before the conference. Marty has been very helpful. We are very mrchanical so I dont see us having a difficult time with it.
