Grooming attachments?

HI Rick! I was just wondering if anyone has made available a kit that attaches to the Cyclone for brush grooming purposes to offset some of that really aggressive carpet pile aggitation?

Perhaps some clients will not feel negatively about the scrubing pattern left behind, but if they do, having to hand groom the carpet seems like double the work, esp if your going after larger office prospects.

Any thoughts?

Yes, the Cimex Cyclone.

No Jeff, I don't know of any such attachment.

You could go behind the Cimex Cyclone running a pile lifter over the damp carpet with the vac motor unplugged. That would groom out the swirl marks... then you'd have stripes in the pile instead of circles. The markings in the carpet form the agitation will walk and vacuum out after a couple of days. Inform your customer what to expect and they should be OK with it.

A grandy groomer at any carpet supply house with the brush and or bristle attachement should work.
