Do you keep up with the times?
It seems like every time you turn around some thing is new and improved. Faster, lighter more efficient, you pick. This past week my favorite son pressured good old dad in to upgrading out carpet cleaning wand.
“The Evolution Wand is the first and only rotationally molded carpet wand on the market. It is exceptionally lightweight - only 6.5 pounds, about half the weight of conventional wands.
What sets the Evolution wand apart from the competition is its innovative use of laminar airflow technology. When air flows at a low velocity through straight narrow tubes, it tends to be more orderly and streamlined. This is called laminar flow and it dramatically increases overall airflow, thus improving water recovery performance.
When tested against other traditional wands, the Evolution removed twice the moisture of the next best performing wand.
The Evolution’s glide receiver and vacuum tube are made of strong but light aircraft aluminum, and the stainless steel solution line and fittings can withstand up to 3,000 PSI.”
“Special Notes for Technicians:
The lightweight design of the Evolution wand may give you the false impression that you’re not really getting the pickup you need to clean. It glides so easily, that many technicians, used to backbreaking labor, are thrown off by how little effort they need. The natural reaction is to push down harder on the wand. However, this actually chokes off the airflow and reduces the amount of suction on the wand”
Well it seems to be true. It is defiantly lighter and much easier to use. It is so quite you can actually talk without being accused of, “are you deaf”. After cleaning some 10 thousand square foot of carpet last night I am glad my favorite son pushed some new technology on me. Not only will the back and arms be spared you the client will also get a much better job.
