I wasworking in Newcastle yesterday so I thought I would pop down to Extracta products and take a look at there scrubber range! The guy I spoke to said they put weighted blocks in front of the scrubber unit so the vacume slot sucks hard to the floor ! he went on to say when coupled with there Exell machine the most powerful potable on the market ! in his oppinion ! the scrubber just sticks to the floor
My point here is ! if the scrubber is hard against the floor/carpet arn't you restricting the air flow?

So how easy are they to pull back / the scrubber 20 that is /

[Mike Roper]

Stu,
I used to use the normal scrubber on every job years ago till I improved my methods ie pre agitation . It actually hurts my back more using one than using a wand, must be the way you pull it.With a wand you can keep your back straight hence less fatigue.

I used a scrubba deluxe for years, suffering for it now.

And what potential damage could the scrubbing action do to certain types of carpet ?  I've resisted buying one because I too implement the pre-agitation method (using an 18" pile brush).

Yes stuart you are correct it will greatly affect the airflow, this was the practice some29 years ago when steamvac used a weighted floor tool which nearly broke your back when trying to get it into the customers house, I personally think that extractor products are lost in a time warp somewhere in the late Seventies early Eighties?
I am glad I went down the truck mount road, I have a titanium wand with a Teflon glide which even considering the enormous airflow/vacuum created by the maxx450 diesel it simply glide over the carpet no need for weights, I really think people like extractor should know better, as they have been trading slightly longer than myself.
All the best Ted

i like the sucrbba tools and have used them from when they frist came out think our frist one was number 4 !  which is a very long time ago 

ive just stopped useing them after going to the t.m. i do miss them but only being 4 " 10 and 7 stone i found lugging them round a pain , but i would go back to them tomorrow but not a weighted one they must be mad !

[stuart_clark]

well susan , with all that cash comming in I wouldn't be killing myself cleaning carpets

[stuart_clark]

Susan ! I notived in your Website your company is called the Cleaning doctor ! yet in your advert in the local Stockton / Middlesbrough gazette you are known as 1st clean !! why is this ? I have also seen your advert in the local free press advertising carpets cleaned from £8.00 and three piece suites for not much more

[Fintan_Coll]

And to confuse things even more I think there is a company out there who are useing a name almost identical to yours, by just dropping the first word '' The '' from their name.
