Bawb.. you ever thought about making a frankenstien genie? Take off the heat exchanger and run a diesel burner or propane for extreme heat and run a completely unrrestricted the plumbing of the blower? Simply curious.

I think I can answer that for bawb..... Bawb is afraid of fire...... Explosions or bombs with wheels. So I doubt you'll see bawb do that. Want ta bet a fi on it?

Nate...yor fi would be safe......i would NEVER have an unattended fire in my van......
too many variables to consider.....
a puff of wind might blow some combustible material near yor burner?????
a gravel road might loosen a propane fitting?????
a malfunction of the burner system in any way , jeopardizes not only yor truck but the house yor cleaning AND yor whole future!!!!!
Propane is expensive!!!!
Kero makes you smell like...........kero!!!!!!
need i go on..............?
and my blower is plumbed ezackly as Steam Genie designed it...
they spent a ton of money in the R & D of this machine and it's JUS FINE.....
right Shawn???

Ok Bawber here is a better question for you. Let say YOU for some wierd reason of the world wanted to make a machine that would go in one van that would allow two operators to clean with full performance.
How would YOU do it bawbers? The WORLD wants to know! !dork!

Re: NEW STEAM GENIE Hey WillyPP
I don't know about his son if he is still doing it or not. He said my swap was going to be the last swap he, himself did. That was in 2004 the last time we had machine reinstalled in the 97 van, Jim had to move the shaft to the passenger side of engine, move the pump and other componets. Jim gave me the bill which was quite abit more than estimated, I paid the same way I had paid the previous time , on our credit card, Jim filled out the paper work I thanked him and we said Good bye. Jim called me back a week or so later and said his son said I still owed, cause the card paid in Canadian, and the bill was in US funds. I told Jim this was the way we handled it last time, He said he knew, but his son handles the billing now. I told him I didn't think it was right, He aggreed, I told him to get back to me if his son wanted to persue it. . I haven't spoken to him since.
