Rotovac 360xl or T-Rex or something else?

Can we all agree that HWE is seriously needed with puke in a pew Also a good
portable wet vac is a plus as well

Must have been some sermon.

The first 2 minutes they said I’m sure there was some type of Pentecostal runaway even in a Catholic Church.

As you own the copyright to idiot, you may not use the word moron. you have to leave some of the disparaging words for us common folk.

Wicking is becoming a thing of the past with today's commercial carpet tiles that have a rubber backing. When the HWE process is properly done, how can anything possibly wick up? I never get callbacks on that type of carpet that's replacing the old commercial

How would you know what type of backing it has? Is HWE best for commercial glue down carpet?

So I am thinking I need a RE machine. Last year I cleaned a middle school (medium size private) and then got the got the church also. They do not want vlm and who am I to argue. I only HWE. I am doing the church again and they let me know they want it done every 6 months now and the school once a year. I’m done wanding the entire place. It’s not too bad on the light/medium soiled areas. But the heavy soiled areas are a beating. I started looking at the Bentley Pro but I don’t know if that would be that much quicker. Im considering the Rotovac 360xl or the T-Rex. I do very little commercial as of now. Those that are doing larger commercial jobs, what are you using? Seems like you can find good or bad reviews on all of the machines.

It appears I used my Rotovac 360 and itleft wicking. Not sure if the dials work. They appear to be very easy to turn and not set properly on a church carpet. Had to go back and wand. Good thing it was just a small area I tested. Any recommendations? I have never VLM'd.

Most, if not all of commercial carpet tiles have a rubber backing. Carpet tiles are squares of carpet.

All other commercial carpets should have the normal backing where wicking can occur

That’s a good question to ask AI
