Open stairs, switch tools. Brass we would use an upholstery tool...and charge more since it takes more time.
We have far too many tools..far too many.

You need to try that long handled stair tool that Olsen sells. Its like a cut down wand. Its a flushing dragon!

You would use a 1.5! For SHAME a grown man playing with a toy!PMF swivel stair tool for the last 20 years. No need for a glide on a stair tool. Only thing I don't like about it is I had to add a fitting from the hardware store to lengthen the solution hose so it would swivel all the way (everyone I've talked to has done it) . And although it's a 1 1/2 inch tube it narrows down to 1 inch after the swivel. Hence my call out to PMF to make it a 2 inch tube and then it will narrow down to a 1 1/2 tube at the swivel.
BUT PMF NEVER LISTENS TO US CARPET CLEANERS ARE THEY STOOPID?
And NO I won't pay for a new stair tool for $900 like some of you idiots who paid $1800 for a wand.
Wrong.
Give me a reason to want a swivel for a straight handle stair tool.
I'll give you a reason NOT to want a swivel.
-when you spin the tool around manually without a swivel to clean the risers, you use your biceps and forearm muscles to pull the tool up. A much more natural method that uses stronger muscles to pull it up, which will prevent less fatigue and will be just as fast as a tool with a swivel
If you are going to have a longer handle the stair tool should have a swivel. It' more maneuverable, cause less pain in your shoulders and less wear and tear on the whip hose.
The swivel enables you to do the tight areas on stairways that curve. It works well around toilets when there is carpet in the bathrooms.
Oh ya I forgot your best stair tool was a Prochem Ti for years!
I used a wand for steps from the get-go
First ten-twelve with an AW29 and last 15 w/PC Ti
(always a trusty 4" PMF enclosed flood when needed)
when you're a young fit man in your prime years (25 to 45) it ain't sheeit to work a wand on steps
Hit fiddy with 25+ years on the wand ..... manhandling that big wand w/2" hose feels like a WHOLE LOT more o' chore
..L.T.A.
WRONG. You know how I know, cause I'm right!So, there is no right or wrong tool. There is no best tool. You will need several tools to do stairs properly. Use the one that is most comfortable for you and that is appropiate for the job at hand.
The flop is the thing. You want it to do that with this tool. I hated it for about a week...and then I watched Aaron use it and did what he did. Really like it.It was way to loose flopping everywhere!
That’s pretty stupid.WRONG. You know how I know, cause I'm right!
Know how I know I'm right? My wife tells me so.
She says "You're always right!"
I know she hates to admit it so it must be true.
That’s pretty stupid.
And I think Bob has used it before too.
Probably?Ya but he’s boy wonder and probably smarter then me!
Well there a good possibility!Probably?
I gotta get new material or you gotta go.That’s pretty stupid.
And I think Bob has used it before too.
