Simon ... Dave is now in the 21st century... unlike some dinosaurs on here.. 

 

Hector,
Stop putting yourself down like that

[peter maybury]

I am getting good results with Iced water and m.s.

[jim mca]

I find using highland spring water makes for a better clean 

[*Hector*]

got to be the fizzy stuff though... 

[Shaun_Ashmore]

Dave what extraction machine you cleaning with ?

On my previous tm both hx went I found that cold water cleaning didn't really get the rinse I wanted or the carpet texture as soft and fluffy and I thought it was damper.

Shaun

[neil 47]

I had lots of heat for 5 years but still don't notice any difference in the clean.

So you clean your clothes and dishes in cold water then .

Try washing your frying pan used in cold water and fairy it won't clean and some hot water and it cleans easy .

I do use cold but only on certain jobs

[Simon Gerrard]

And... It is HOT water soil extraction systems we are using 

[davep]

Shaun I'm using prowler. Lads were not talking about clothes or frying pans.

Just an observation I've made over lsst few months.

[Simon Gerrard]

Isn't there an HX on the Prowler?

Simon

Neil... next time you use the washing machine... check the temperature of the rinse water.... 

[davep]

There is Simon but mine needs a repair. Not going to as will be replacing that machine soon. It's given me 6 years mostly 6 day weeks.

Neil - yes, you will always get a better clean if you wash clothes/dishes etc in hot water.
...But, how long does the hot water stay hot when sprayed on the carpet?  Not long I think - so I'm unsure how much of an improvement it will make.  But I'll be finding out for myself soon enough.

[Simon Gerrard]

Heat makes a massive difference when cleaning carpets. The heat just cuts through the dirt so much better than cold. Likewise, hot pre-sprays work a lot better than cold.

you should teach your custards not to fry eggs on the carpet..

 

[brianbarber]

Hot per spray, hot water for extraction.
Love to see a cold water extraction on a naasty restaurant carpet....

Run cold water over your used dinner plate and then hot.
 we all know which rinses it best so stop trying to convince your self cold is ok

[davep]

Come out with me for a day Neil. I'll teach you how to clean carpets as your obviously more into dishes

What the hell has a dinner plate got to do with carpets?
The washing analogy is nearest... and a washing machine rinses with COLD water...

....."rinses with cold water"..........after a hot wash though. But this is a pointless argument, isn't it? We're cleaning carpets, which are normally done using CHAT (Unless you've been seduced by the fictitious rag cleaning with a rotary). However each situation will determine the best method to employ so, unless you only have one option, we'll all use whichever method will produce the best result. So David is adding another option which he will find is of far greater benefit than some other's.
