KL,

The machine is superb - but the method  does not produce a deep clean.

Try re-cleaning with HWE - or even bonnet buffing - and see how much dirt comes out !

hi
whats happen to those cynical people waiting хочу говорить!

[a55essor]

привет Mike вы не говорите,почему?
 that was just a message from my daughter who doesn't liked to be called a lie.
 I thought these forums were to ask advice and gain some  help, but as it's been said  on other subjects on these forums that people just take the p*** or just cynical.

From what I've seen of the HOST system it's good for cleaning areas on a regular basis but quite often HWE is required initially to get the carpet really clean - then regular cleans with HOST to maintain the cleanliness of the carpet.

KL, lack of sense of humour must run in the family then : :

I don't know about being full of cynics & people taking the Pi**  I'm finding too many people on these forums with very thin skins.

come on lighten up

I'd have to charge the same as I do for rugs. £2-50 sq ft = £780

But they have to bring the carpet to me and collect it a week later.

Must say I'm not to happy with all you guys undercutting me.

Would anyone like to valet my Bentley?

It's not worth trying to explain why she is doing russian, if people still think the cold war is still on 
as for a sense of humour my daughter posted a joke in russian
kl

[Mike Halliday]

what dio you call a russian chocolate thief?

nikablokachokoff

was your daughters joke as funny as  mine

on a serious note, I admire your daughter for learning a second  language (or perhaps its her native tongue) we brits are being left behind in europe for not inproving our ability to converse with our nieghbouring countries.

Although I now only use Host Dry Extraction as a problem solver, I used it quite extensively in the past for both residential and commercial work. The system is capable of superb results, but it can be very time and labour intensive. I found the biggest drawback with the system was the spotting. Whereas with wet and LM cleaning, many spots come out without any extra work, Dry Extraction requires most spots to be treated individually. Although I've never tried it, I suspect that a pre-clean treatment with a microsplitter may reduce this factor.  I've achieved superb results on oily/greasy soil and Host is still my system of choice with toner spillages.

As for charges on the example given by KL, I would charge a premium for the added benefit of a totally dry carpet on completion, probably about £150, but consumables are high cost. If you have a USP (unique selling point) such as this, it demands a premium. At £60 for Host, you will not be in business too long.

Good fortune.

Safe and happy cleaning
Ken

 Thanks Ken & everyone for the advice, as I said before I also use it as problem solver in my cleaning contracts, it's true that you have to treat spots individually.
Well if i'm going to use as full time carpet cleaner then it's back to the drawing board and twek over my plans.
No my daughters native tounge is british, she's going to be an trainslattor, there's lots going on soon in the russian financial world
Well must go now, no rest rest for the wicked got to get a floor scrub & polished  for the morning.
