very interesting piece of equipment. for CGD it seems a good fit...is this true? or is it more for resi?

does it really shine on CGD jobs where there is heavily impacted dry soil?


thanx for any feedback --- Derek.

I do. In fact I have a couple of 'em. One is on the showroom floor, and one is in a box in the warehouse. And they are both wanting to find a good home. You can adopt one today.

Seriously though, the X-Vacs are incredible at digging up crud from the base of soil-impacted carpet. In some cases, nothing (not even an X-Vac) can get everything up from the base of a trampled CGD carpet. But the X-Vac will definately dig up more than anything else can.

It helps a great deal. I have a quarterly cleaning (cgd )olefin fiber with very nubby nap. It practically lays flat from traffic. There are some spill stains present for years. My first cleaning was goodwith the Mex and releasit. Two weeks later the spill stains were back. It was like one of those horor movies.

The cleaning came around and I used the x-vac on the stains then along with the rick-G menuever as before. The stains were gone for two months and slowly I began to see a shade of dark color begin to appear showing where the stains are.
I even HWE the day before the cleaning.

I told the owner that floor needs cleaning twice in a quarter if he doesn't want to see those spill stains.

The Point is that the X-VAC is AWESOME.

Excellant machine It is a must to be successful in the commercial carpet maintenance field. Dry soil removal is a big part of any low moisture cleaning system.

I cleaned today this same account. First I Vacuumed, when vacuuming the spill stains (2x3 sq.ft.) I went north South East West. Then lastly with the brush against the lay of the fibers.

As I stood back and looked at the stain it almost disappeared. So it just shows that carpet wasn't vacuumed and the work of the X-VAC was still manifest.
