Had a few inquiries about streaking and swirls with RE's.

You don't need a dial to adjust speed on a unit...you just need to adjust your speed and how fast you move the unit side to side....or forward backwards....

Just put up this video today thinking about this.

On this carpet, we were able to proceed sometimes at a good clip, and then at times had to slow down....

We have had no issues grooming out Swirls....

Oh.... @Scott S. ...a little mention for you in the video :)

Does anyone up here have a sales team set up for commercial contracts? Do you pay commission or salary?

Nice video thanks. Mark do you like the rake more than the brush?

We carry a brush type groomer and also the rake....

I find we use the rake a lot on this type of carpets vs the broom type....but we do have both so we can still make them stand up, groom out our marks and make them look as purty as possible :)

I really think that our reputation is due to using RE on many residential carpets. Unmats traffic lanes (like in Mark's video) like no wand possibly can. Don't know what we'd do without our RX's. Even the great Zipper can't accomplish what RE's can. But you'll have to kill me to get my Zipper.

For those who can't afford a rotary extractor....2000-3000$
A rotary scrubber 500$ and wand and or scrubber and zipper will work as well or better....
It's about the same labor:
Scrub and wand or zipper...no raking...
Vs. rotary extractor and raking with using wand on corners and edges.....
Done it both ways it's about the same time...
