Update on the GreenGlides upholstery tool project

[Mikey P]

Too bad it doesn't have this valve, i really don't care for this tool. And only use it on the rare occasions that i have to do an auto or rv interior. What i really really really love about it is that it has an continuous adjustable bypass. It keep the solution super hot all the way up to the valve itself .
The stainless needle valve on the side manually controls how much solution if any is bypassed

We chose to put the circulation valve on the other end of the hose

Keeps the weight and heat out of your hand, when needed, which it usually isn't

I retrofit all upholstery tools with this at the head no heat in the hand and you dont have to reheat up to 20' of internal hose to get hot soulition to the upholstery. Send me your mailing address again, Im gunna send you one to try. Its plug n play the little piece of teflon hose is there to slow the velocity from the bypass jet to prevent it from blowing holes in the vacuum hose I've had bypasses at both ends and found the ones at the head are truly the best . Try it unlike my stairtool youll love this!

I can't even begin to imagine the amount of hair and lint that collects on all that

1% of carpet cleaners with ever think to open it up and clean it out after every job

The need for heat that intense at the head means you didn't vacuum apply your preconditioner, agitate and let dwell time do its thing..

For all your cleaning is fabric booths in Chinese restaurants

I don't have a super heated machime. frankinstien's water to water heat exchangers only get to around 185° the salsa unit on him is connected to a roots 47 blower with a maximum exhaust temp of 225° my temperature gets to about 205° at the machine with about a 15° drop to the attachment and without bypass at the head and a 10' ⅛" internal solution hose, the time it takes to prespray and agatate a single sofa cushion the soulition is cold and takes considerable amount of time spraying to bring it back up to a acceptable temperature for cleaning. As far as hair getting caught that has not ever been a problem. No more so than the quick connect it's self would collect.

Glide is being tweaked to last plenty of on/off cycles.

We'll have a functioning unit or two at the Cleaning Business Expo at the end of January in Vegas, which Tom Cermak and I will be doing demos with

With the enclosed jet being outside the vacuum chamber, what pressure will you advise this to be used at? My internal jet is normally set around 350psi, but it has the suction to help prevent overwetting.

My first upholstery tool was a very similar external jet tool I bought used off ebay before I had any idea of how to properly clean fabric, lol.
