Title: Sleeved Solution Hose
Post by: CleanerCarpets on November 28, 2015, 06:51:41 pm
How many use the sleeved solution hoses?

With most machines are the standard blue Good Year ones ok - what sort of heat would the machine need to be making to cause the solution hoses get so warm as to leave melt lines on the carpet?

I see the safety connects are available from Phoenix to help with the connects getting hot  but do you need the full sleeve hoses that Ashbys do?

The machine is a Prowler 13hp

what we did was ly dust sheets in the hall ways to the front room door doesn't matter how hot they got then  , pre spay and then clean with a tm , then we roll up dust sheets quick pre spay then clean the hall carpet last this avoids must ironing flat carpets as there damp from the pre-spay and it shouldn't take you that long to clean a hall way

other then that just roll a extra vac pipe off feed into it the solution hose and away you go instant sleeving that costs northing and can be used if and when needed

Order a few bits to fill the box up and remember you'll get hit with the vat before  customs will release parcel.
Best to photoshop your order and email it explaining overseas order the guys weird but sells some good gear.
