You will not kill yourself using a portable, nor will you risk the health of your customers. 

I don't know what area you work in, but doug and I work in very different environments.  Doug's points are valid for the type of area he works in.  If I lived in the Snowy Mountains of Victoria (Australia) then his points would apply to me.

However, even in our dry South Australian climate, if you drop too much water, you can have mould growth, which can happen even with a truckmount.  It depends on the operator.

If you use a portable, don't get lazy and keep it in your van with three or four lengths of hose running.  I only use one length of hose myself.

Because of this post, (big thanks to doug), I would place my portable outside a residence (for venting purposes) if it required: cold and damp climates, working on dog or cat urine soaked carpet, etc...

It HAS come up.  What if I vented the urine stench from the room it resided in to ... say... their clothes closet?  Not smart.  Even if the portable was in the same room, I'd not be doing the best job I could.

Good luck,

Allen

That's Mr. Surround Sound to you.

I used it THREE times, however you may not be counting the parentheticals as they (to some) exist ouside of the main body of text.

ALLEN, ALLEN, ALLEN:  I completely forgot.  Mr. Surround Sound.  How I certainly I forgot how to address you.  I am glad you reminded me.  As I would not want to insult you and not get your handle correct.  Glad things are still going in your favor.Guitar

Suction:

Yeah... maybe it's time to cut your losses.  I almost ran over someone's toe while bringing in my portable.

Cheers!

Either that, or he's still following my instructions to set up his killer portable.
