How Carpet Cleaning Has Changed Over the Years



1907


Portable Cleaning

Invented Mid 1907
Still used 117 years later
Results

• Not very clean
• Not very dry
• A lot of work

Late 1960s


Truck Mounts

• Introduced in late 60s
• Most popular in the 1980s to present

Best Pro Method for past 60+ years
Results

• Better Cleaning
• Dryer than portable
• Less work
• More water pressure
• Heat
• Deeper clean

Early 1980s


Rotary Cleaning

• Restore carpets with deeper cleaning with 450 agitations per minute versus 40 with wand per minute and more extraction
• Carpets are left cleaner and dryer than wands & portable cleaning

More Heat + More Agitation = More Referrals
Now


For the Professional Cleaner

The wait is over, now you can dry carpets after steam cleaning. After 40 years with no real industry equipment built, The new surface-to-surface drying system is here.
Yes! You can dry stairs & carpet and solve customers’ concern for wet carpet and get paid for it.

That’s a pretty cool invention. So it’s a hot hair blowing machine over the surface??? Is that correct?

That’d be a pretty cool upsell

It’s hot air not hair

 

[Jim Pemberton]

What is the source of the hot air?

I believe every post Marty has ever made was printed out and placed under that dome...

Then they’ve underestimated their drying times.

There’s a lotta hot air in the carpet cleaning business!

 

[Mikey P]

probably leaves corn rows behind...

 

[Kenny Hayes]

Corn circles!

 

[hogjowl]

No, it’s rows

 

[Jh16]

It’s hot air not hair

It’s a hover craft surface to surface it directly heats the carpet fiber evaporates the moisture

What is the source of the hot air?

2 1500 watt standard plug ins apposing. Circuits

Ill stick with my good ole tried and true drag wand to rinse and if it needs to be dried more ill make an extra drying pass ( as i do on all wool carpets). What happens if you park that "giant hairdryer " on the carpet? Will it get hot enough to do damage?

No need to worry it is thermostats to kick off to low heat

Also eliminates the spin with customers not getting true value for topical products ie Re protecting causing over wetting and min protection because of the fear of over wetting

Not really it lifts pile up and dries restyles with out leaving ugly rake lines also when you walk on wet damp carpet you crush the fiber down and it stays down till u rewet just like if you sleep on wet /damp hair it stays down till in the shape it dries till re wet thx joe

Air blowers in West Texas do wonders. 5 to 10 minutes the direct pathway is near dry

Thank you, i think for that kinda money ill stick with the voodoo i do clean n dry with rx20 then rinse n dry with weighted drag wand .50 or.55 persqft .55 or .60 with extra dry pass with drag wand. No cords no power no problems clean, residue free, dry enough

 

[Mr Brightside]

Is this device for real like I don’t get it

You can’t deny the better cleaning with rx20 or other rotary equipment but most would agree that you need to be paid more for the service I can old equate in Canadian dollars a truck mount here cost 70000.00 for 40 cents per ft plus a rx20 6000 and you may get 15/20 cents extra and this cost cnd 6000 and you can get 25/ plus per ft and mor Re protecting jobs and I could take this eq and just offer cleaning and re protecting and make as much with out the overhead of truck mounts considering also rainy days longer dry times for me when I started cleaning back in 76 and when the trucks came on the seen I moved on why because nobody else had one and the same with rx20 in early 80s moved on it also and came to realize I could offer something that nobody else has drying I viewed it like this as the first person said at the chat it’s a good thing for up sale like Mac not having gravy they can’t offer it thx

 

[Jh16]

Yes it is you buy a clothes dryer to dry clothes your wife buys a hair dryer to dry her hair you go through a carwash and a big fan blow dries your car in restoration you buy dehumidifiers and fans to dry pad carpets drywall all thing we do or have done for convenience conclusion dry carpets then to solve the customers concern after she /he asks price then next question is how long does it take to dry carpets I have a big blower not long I double and triple wand so not long etc etc or dry when we leave hope this helps you to get it thx

I don’t get the need for the new equipment

Is the tool completely separate from cleaning so I would do my normal routine then use this device?

My carpets dry fast during warm months but basements during the winter have been more of a challenge but more dry stokes less psi less flow and run the Everest on high gets it done

 

[BIG WOOD]

Any videos of it in action?

The tool complements the cleaning first then finishes the job so the customer won’t slip on areas when there feet socks area wet and they can use as normal and go through there normal as it is top down drying there is no wicking issues and it will pay for it self over time when you take into account the less fuel brakes tires and your self trying to do your daily quota you will pick up extra work with out wearing your self trying out on the web site there is 3 bars at top right on first page push those and look at what you can make plus as you change what you think your worth this is only a guide the smaller the area the more I changed I never did package pricing always sq ft hope this answers your question thx

Depends on if you vacuumed first.

Not yet because it rides on a cushion of air you can guide it with 1 hand and when first built one my 8 year old son could guide it and a wife could easily run it if your are a team it’s 45 lbs and 20 lbs of cord to power it
