temp was 7 at my house this morning as Shane rolled out of the drive
By the time he was done with the first empty, it was up around 18 I'd guess

Started out a 1* here, Larry. You guys are warmer, closer to the lake!

Man, you guys are awesome! I feel it's cold here in the morning when it's been in the mid 30s or so lately. High temp during the day though has been high 50s to 68 or so.

Anything above 25 for a high is a heat wave. I just hate having 100 ft of hose on the ground when it is 10 or less. Sometimes the water in the vac hose can turn into snow. Especially with a furniture job.

 

[bob vawter]

my cutoff off point was five below........unless i was broke as hell...........

 

[floorguy]

well damn.....forgot to move my supply hose from off the floor of the truck to a couple feet up.....

damn thing was froze

good thing it was a close bib, and i had my 25' hose roll in there....

zero is my cut off....

I was visiting with a carpet cleaner in Alaska yesterday that I met at Strategies for Success about MF. I was telling her how cold it was down here in the mornings - 10’s - 20’s, she informed me it was 16 below and they were working…

On really cold mornings we preheat our pressure hose by running the hose reel hose to a fitting on the water supply tank. Gets it nice and hot from our Butlers and gives you plenty of time to lay out hoses with no chance of frozen hose.

It’s probably something you are aware of but, Electric motors in floor machines will be damaged is run before they have a chance to warm up. I burned out two or three electric high speeds because of this. A large electric motor takes hours to warm up if it's below freezing
