Jim, i'd love ta hear some olf those stories...........prolly lik some of mine...huh?
Now I don't believe anything you say.The Genesis59 nor any other Powerclean unit have any problems when properly serviced & maintained.
is blantantly false. From day one I have operated my unit within recommended peraminters and performed meticulous maintenence routines, still I have had problems beginning the first week of operation. I can accept an occasional break but not to the point where you cannot trust your equipment from one day to the next.The Genesis59 nor any other Powerclean unit have any problems when properly serviced & maintained.
Chris Muetterties said:Not only did it maintained 280 degrees, it also dried carpet within a few minutes not hours.
All attendents viewing truckmounts saw it, at the end it was the most viewed TM.
Units like this have runned 12-14 hours straight without any problems, and with good maintenance can last 15 years plus.
WOW I had no idea that the Genesis had been on the market for so long, Well done Power Clean !!

Jim Pemberton said:Back in 1977 when I was 18, right out of high school, and showing truck mounts, we had a "secret formula":
We would add a gallon of Prochem Wide Range Industrial Cleaner to our truck mount's stock solution, which brought the pH up around 12. It worked great on restaruants and apartments, which is what we usually got asked to demonstrate on.
Prespray? What's prespray?
A Prochem salesman from a nearby state used to make a mix of oil and dirt that only would release with this stuff in his mix. At trade shows he'd put it on "his" carpet and dare anyone to outclean him.
Then one day he got brave and poured it on the Hydramaster guy's carpet in front of a bunch of cleaners. The Hydramaster guy punched him out right there in front of everyone. That was the end of the "special sauce demos"
Those were the days.......
Now I'm a middle aged, IICRC shareholder/instructor, and I have a salesperson do the demos and I make him prevacuum and use all of the "right stuff".
I'd no sooner tell him what I did then than I'd tell my stepson the stuff I got away with in school that I'd ground him for if I caught him doing today.
meAt said:Frank, is it true you purposely disabled/modified the heat by-pass system to achieve higher than normal factory temps??
I don't care about that AS LONG AS, you tell it like it is, and NOT represent it as the "norm" that comes from the factory.
you'll find that if you're up front and honest around here, you'll be welcomed.
However, if some of us perceive you're just another shady salesman....
we might rip your face off and feed it to the barn cats!!!

Mr.Truckmount said:I never said 310 degrees came from the factory.
I modified same temperature control, modified same main heat exchanger, only about an hour of labor and no parts.
As far as the vacuum system goes its all factory, except for the 2-2.5 port upgrades.
