have been looking at the dry fusion cleaning system it looks very good, cleans large areas quick, and does it well, now i am thinking if its so good why are you not all using it instead of HWE, could it not replace HWE or is it a case of its good but has its limitations which i suspect is the case, how does it clean deeper pile carpets? how does it clean carpets at all when all it appears to do is wipe a towel over it!

Its worth getting a l m cleaning system its great on low profiles and you can clean commercial space in the day as its whisper quiet :)
You can use them also in domestics if ther not too bad.
A carpet cleaner from stockport uses that as his main machine.

Think its on the Sell section on this forum too.

An excellent buy too, by the look of it !

As many here know, I'm a great fan of LM cleaning in general, and Dry Fusion in particular.
It works great in the commercial low profile environment and has the potential to earn big££££'s.
In the home environment, I tend to use D/F as a problem solver. The main problem is coverage. Take as an example a typical semi with two reception rooms. These will typicall be between 12 and 15 sqM. You prevac, moving furniture to the middle of the room. Prespray thie first area, dwell then clean an area of about 6 or 7 sqM. A decent result is achieved. Move the furniture and go through the process again using a new pad. So, you've used 2 pads to clean and protect 15 sqM, but the system is designed to clean upto 20sqm per pad. The consequences are that you have VERY high product costs per sqM and the carpet is wetter than it would otherwise have been, so you've lost the quick drying benefits of the system.
Of course, if you were able to empty the furniture from the room, or only cleaned larger areas, the D/F may become a viable proposition.
If you are primarily targetting the residential market, my preferred system choice would be rinse/extraction first with Dry Fusion being there second to open the doors to the commercial world.
Safe and happy cleaning :)
