I’ve never considered this.... So if 2” is limited to 275 CFM (I would imagine that is a dynamic number and changes with hose length?). Nevertheless, for argument sake, if 2” is limited to 275 CFM running larger blowers capable of more CFM is a worthless endeavor unless your willing to run dual 2” hoses or larger diameter hose? (i.e. 2.5”) or am I thoroughly screwing this up?
A decent sized truck mount with decent heat, Zipper, Ti wand or Tom wand and the proper chemistry is all that is needed. The cleaner who fill their truck with all the LATEST toys are just wasting their money, or have small hands
Thats my understanding although I've never run anything over a 45, but I thought the 2" hose limit was 450cfm? Unless he means 275cfm is max that can be pulled through wand locked on carpet?
Yeah i only classes with girls in them it was the only way I got my homework done.More cfm is more airflow. More lift pulls more water column.
I paid attention in physics, it was the only class I had that had no girls to distract me.
Mike,
No doubt Ron that with your aerotech, you can blow away your competition on average soiled carpets without resorting to all the extra agitation tools. In 40 years though, I'm sure you've seen some jobs where a prescrub or something like a rotovac tool would have made the job a little easier or would have gotten better results. Hell, most of my competitors don't even prespray, not hard to knock them off.
But you said adding 2.5 added cfm to the 2?
Yes 100 feet two inch is a little less cfm then 50 ft of 2.5 and 50 ft of 2 inch
I guess the 2 wasn't maxed the first time then? Don't mind me I don't know this stuff.
I have bought and sold many tools. I bought one of the first Zipper’s, early RX 20, two crb’s around 1990, Host, Cimex etc. I find the extra equipment needless and tired of fixing all of it. The KISS theory is what I practice today. If it doesn’t make money, I don’t do it. If i don’t need it 90 percent of the time, I don’t buy it.
i gauranfrickin TEE you the Stanleys in DEEtroit ain't doin all that sheeet........
Get a Cimex and you can use both hands on yor ass. Steer with your teeth!@CJ-FL Although any agitation is better than none when commercial needs a scrub red pad rules them all imo. Some here will disagree and complain about weight and learning curve. But that weight is what scrubs dirt and is'nt noticable to user when on the floor, I don't understand those who find them hard to use I can use 1 handed and scratch my butt and look good doin it (those last 2 are where most probably fail)
I have used 175's with pads and brushes and have good success with that approach but it is time consuming. Time is money and I think the rotovac with brushes will replace that and be a lot faster. You can scrub like a 175 or scrub, flush and extract in one step.@CJ-FL Although any agitation is better than none when commercial needs a scrub red pad rules them all imo.

You know if you claim that you can scratch your ass and look good while doing it, we're gonna need some pics.@CJ-FL Although any agitation is better than none when commercial needs a scrub red pad rules them all imo.
