Has carpet cleaning damaged your hearing?

My wife would say Yes in my case.

I have a difficult time hearing people talk, the TV is usually cranked up as loud as it can go, and people tell me all the time that my phone is ringing.

lol, I can relate, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with an audiologist. Not sure where i lost most of mine, heavy equipment, machinery, or those Rush concerts 8) . I play carefully with what i have left, Peltor ear muffs hang right beside the Cleanco.

Yeah, I have a hearing problem. I can't say it is from CC. It may just be from old age ... who knows. No sense in getting an appointment with a doctor though because I can not afford hearing aids. Have you seen the prices on those things?

My hearing is bad. It could be from carpet cleaning, or the frozen food warehouse I worked in for 11 years, or UPS from the conveyor belts, or the bands I was in in high school, or the concerts that I had to get in the front row for and not be able to hear for 3 days, or anything else stupid I did in my teenage years.

But then again, hearing loss can be convenient at times.

I doubt a TM would cause much hearing loss. How much time are you really near the TM when it's running full out? Most of the time your inside the house when it's running.

I think you're just getting old.

There may be some truth to that statement :lol:

After reading all your post about the HOA and things..I am pretty sure you only suffer from selective hearing.........

a few months back a my client told me her name 3 times, I got it wrong all 3 times. :oops: I decided that day I was going to the audiologist. He told my my hearing was comparable to most people in their late 60's :shock: So I bought hearing aids and I cant believe the difference. If you notice pics of my truck you will see a pair of ear muffs hanging from the let vac port. I use them all the time and I dont care if they look stupid.

Kiss probably is the main reason for my poor hearing, I have seen them more times than i care to admit.

Do you guys really not wear ear plugs with the machine running?

I had them hanging in the van and used them religiously.


Jen says I have a "listening" problem...Not a hearing problem.


My Orbot doesn't make much noise. Ivebeensold

Although it's hard to tell with all my customers cheering during my cleaning. Yes, they love me. :mrgreen:

Number one reason I sold my V. Not only the noise but the vibration had me on edge. I was almost ready to become a padder. Almost.
