« on: November 07, 2011, 09:40:02 am »
recently on hols in north california town called Redding, amazed to see 3 carpet cleaning business's pass by while im eating breakfast in lumberjacks 8.30ish.. Also stopped and talked to a fellow who was just going into a custies house really good bloke...obviously had a t/m prochem  said biz was good , min charge $75. aalthough he likes to always increase job value, uses a compact rotary wand/tool rarly wand alone as he feels much less wear on the body . Says cost around $2000. but well worth the money. Unfortunatly I dident get name of the kit any one got clues...Drying times in Sunny cally are so short!!!!! cheers simon

Probably the Rotovac which some love others don't !

His $75 minimum equates to just £47 which is a bit low if you have the cost of running a T/M. Having said that, is I type I've come across a site which boasts of being " The Best Carpet Cleaners in the Greater Glasgow area "

Perfect Clean................3 carpets for £45 and they use a T/M with Rotovac.

Did it look like this?



Rotary DriMaster, made by Hydramaster, or the RX-20 made by them (not likely on most domestics)

Or a rotovac 360?
