Rotovac

Looking at some opinions on the Rotovac 360i or other Rotovac wands.

I manage commercial buildings where the carpet is glues directly to wood or concrete, no underlay

I'm finding that the pile in "cow paths" or traffic lanes isn't being lifted well enough for tenants to be happy. A carpet rake won't cut the mustard.

Your thoughts?

we've got about 400,000 sq ft of commercial space. My carpet cleaning program runs about 9 months of the year and most of the space is offices. My only concern with the 360i was maneuvering it in small offices

have you used one?

could you point me in the direction on information on encapping. it's not something i'm familiar with. Currently we are using a Johnson diversity heavy duty prespray and then extraction with a clarke us machine (bext series with heat)

thanks, will do some digging!

 No one using RV with Little Giant ??

Are you a chemist now too?  Adding that to your engineering expertise now?
What level of a college degree DO you have?
BS = Bull $h1+
MS = More of the Same ... or my favorite
PHD = Piled Higher and Deeper

How does the saying go:
It is better to remain silent and thought a fool
Than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

Mindless grunt, I have a master's degree and if you knew anything and had  suitable experience, you would know that pure encapsulation is nonsense. Try it out for yourself. Get the carpet looking good and then do a water extraction a few days later and watch all the muddy water drain from your tank. A Cymex only hides the dirt but doesn't take any of it out. If you believe the encap fairy tales, you are a sucker.
