Title: numatic ctd570-2, any good?
Post by: Jon Tweddle on January 19, 2007, 06:03:22 pm

hello again
a few months ago i baught a numatic ctd570-2 for my domestic cleaning company (absolutely gleaming cleaning services), but since then i have taken on quite alot of carpet cleaning jobs and have decided to start a seperate carpet and upholstery cleaning company. so now i'm not sure if the machine i've got will be good enough to take on the job full time?
has anyone got any advice on the machine i've already got or what would be a better one to start with?

cheers for any replys

John this is a very common question, if you use the search facility and look for NEWBIE or HELP you will find loads of advice, most of which advise taking some formal training before buying a machine.  I went on the NCCA coarse for about £300 they showed me a range of SYSTEMS (not manufacturers) so i could choose for myself, i had allready bought a truckmount but have since bought a rotary and a dry compound system, the knowledge i gained on this course was essential for explaining how these systems worked and what their benefits were.

Hope this helps

This is your Numatic machine.

OK for spot / stain treatment.

Its not got the power to do a professional job.
