Title: porty
Post by: clarkson on December 07, 2010, 12:31:56 pm

 Hi
 i am using an old alltec at the moment, but since we have texatherm we dont use that much.

 I would like to upgrade the portable but would prefer something a bit more compact and mobile for small areas like lounges or h.s.l.jobs.

 What would you all suggest.

 cheers

i would go for a alltec 40 0r airflow compact twin vac  :D,  if you not got hot water all the time , the all tec has  an heater element already fitted ,  you will have to get a heat box for the air flow, which is great bit of kit . Have got both these machaines , the airflow slighty lighter , but both great machines, both not to big and bulky ,  ::)

Hi John,

seeing as you have the Texatherm System, have you not looked at the EMV. This will allow you to still carry out Texatherm Cleaning (as the solution tank is also a heater tank for pads) as well as being able to carry out extraction work.

I have found it really useful for the last two years to be able to take one set of equipment into a premises to carry out the job.

Regards

Gary

As long as nobody meant an "AIRFIX". that would have been a "model" machine. ;D

I'll get my coat.

 hi
 cheers guys. the all tec is  a bit like moving a piano   to do a 10 by 10 lounge its a bit much.
 
 I knew texatherm did an extract machine combined maybe a possibility. i am a bit anti alltec at the moment but perhaps not being fair as mine is decrepid twin vac. Sad thing is it does work heater works fine pumps work ok vacs work. one wheel is buckled and the drain outlet drips. and it looks tatty but it will clean. just cant move the dam thing.

cheers
