Portable Vac Booster This vac booster screws into the top clean-out hole of many steam cleaning machines such as Prochem, Diamondback, Esteam E-1700, Sanitaire, Breeze, Mytee, Nobles and probably more that I am not aware of.
 It adds that third vac motor and almost doubles your existing CFM.
 Kleen Kuip sells them for $695.00 ea.

Hello Watchman and Carpetologist. I am really interesting in this product. I have two questions about it. 1) How do you keep your vacuums motors out of moisture and from where do you add your anti-foam?
2)Is necesary to change your vacuum inlet at the machine from 1.50" to 2" in order to run the portable with 2" hoses for better performance or the vac booster can work fine wiht 1.50" hoses delivering the same results? Thanks in advance for your responses. Pablo.- |

Anti-foam regardless should always be added to your intake hose at the wand. That way it puts a coating on the inside of the hose and foam gets de-foamed before it reaches the soil tank.
The portable vac-booster will operate fine with the 1 1/2 inch hoses but there is always the concern of your existing shut-off device failing or leaking through and water quickly entering the vac-booster and shortening it's life.
We have not sold that many but those who have one are very pleased.
