Not to change the subject, but how can all these portable companies keep claiming to have " truck mount power"
Is'nt that like a 9 volt battery claiming to have nuclear power?

Doug ..........if the rug is 8 x 10................you only need a space of 625 sq. feet. or 25 x 25 . If it's warm outside they can dry there. If not add another 625 sq. ft to be comfortable enough for 3 guys.Not sure I would do it for 8 bucks.

Dry time on olefin area rugs is nothing. Especially if you have drying racks you can set up, take it off your list of special considerations. Prespray with a hot Tide solution, maybe agitate with a grandi brush, rinse/extract with a cheap portable, hang to dry. They got what they paid for, and they'll look fine.

How often will these be cleaned?

Often, everyday 50 more, 7 days a week. And you have the right attitude, they spend a little money, and get a decent cleaning. Here is a question, do they make a prespray for fleas?

Yes, you can get a flea treatment. I've used M7 with mixed success.

Just to be clear, after a set of rugs is cleaned, how lon before those rugs are re-cleaned?

Ah.. But I am an American, living way way over here in Eastern Europe, people have no money and there is not much for chemicals. And they are too expensive anyway.
I was looking into a pelican, all that cfm and only 7" of mercury lift. They want top dollar for it too. I need a good machine if it breaks, it's over. I have 25.000 rugs to do. Coming on a boat. Long story

The lift is way too low, and this machine only produces 5"HG lift when you are actually cleaning. Cfm drops to only about 50 cfm while cleaning too. You need a Titan. More power, less cost.

We do deliver to anywhere in Europe, so no problem.After the Titans get made in Asia, we will deliver them to China too.
