And you got them where???

 

[Billy]

I have 3 of them with the timer same as Doug. Plan on using them for stairs & upholstery mostly.

They have amazing air flow for size & seem to be well made.

There is actually two different models with different cfms.

They're a Hydroforce/Interlink product.

Sunbelt delivered mine for like $109 each
Cheapest I found.

 

[Carpet Cleaning Fool]

yeah, those things are cool!

I'd use them more often if I wasn't already getting 1 to 3 hour dry times.

I shoulda doubled that when I had the wifes approval

I purchased mine from Amazon for $99.00 ea free shipping because of my Prime Membership.


We did almost purchase from Home Depot because they were running a special 10% + 5% rewards bonus on our Discover It.

I also almost purchased from Interlink when they ran them on sale but decided I may want the Timer function so went with the XPower model.

Costco had one like it also.

Costco had one like it also.

The Costco one didn't have the air flow of the XPower or Omni-Dry IMO. From what I remember the housing wasn't as durable either but they were under $50.00 so it isn't really fair to compare it to the XPower or Omni-Dry

Here is the one I saw at Costco: http://www.amazon.com/Shop-Vac-1032...4864505&sr=1-1&keywords=mighty+mini+air+mover

I'm telling ya'll.

Who cares which brand ya get, you should be throwing an air mover down as you exit a room after cleaning anyhow!



Not that we had an issue before, but these things are gonna put a hurting on the dry queen, encapp homos screaming bout dry times!

Yes but not all Air Movers are made equal. IMO my old Air Kings which I have had for years for drying stairs, upholstery etc don't produce on High what the Xpower does on low.

Looks like the HD unit has a timer on it. I suppose the first thing you wan to do is somehow bypass that, if the unit is designed to operate continuously.

That in fact is something you may want to consider. An intermittent duty motor on a professional airmover is rather an oxymoron.

No need to bypass the XPower does have the timer but it doesn't have to be used so you can run continuous or on the timer. I spoke with the manufacture before purchasing as well as another cleaner that had purchased them.

I was told it is the same as the OmniDry accept it also has the timer function.

Timer only comes into play if you turn it on....

other wise just the 3 level speed control

you have to watch out for the 1/5 hp vs the 1/8 hp they both look the same but the 1/5 hp is the better one

If not Private Labeled it seems according to their web site the Xpower 230AT 1/5 hp is "Blue" & the 200AT 1/8 hp is "Red".

800 cfms .. Not enough for me

I have higher HP/CFM Air Paths & Air Movers but I prefer the Mini Sized Dri-Pods & Xpower/OmniDry Air Movers since we only use them for drying what we clean faster.

The mini Air Movers aren't for everyone though.

We have used ours a couple i times now. I pretty much have the system down, and it really only takes about 4 extra minutes on the job to deal with them.

The Clients Love em and what they do.
