Steamer, no disgreeing with what your saying about the customer end. But I want to research to see if it will be significantly different than what I have now - The Aquatech with a 47 blower.

Premier I think if you research prices the Ace Diesel will be less expensive than the Blueline. But you need to research the service delivery of both companies.
Butler PTOs are about as mainstream a PTO system as you can buy and have a very good reputation for quality and reliablility of the unit and their service.

You'd figure they all do the same job....they are all using the same parts...
 
For residential all you need is a TM ...a vortex is overkill....if you buying a truckmount for commercial..encap is going to blow you out of the water...
 
Well at least in the Greater Toronto Area a vortex isn't needed...the wizard doesn't get anymore jobs out here because he has a vortex...
 
he has a nice wrap on his rig ..I will say thAT

A Cimex is faster and it hides the dirt

    As many will say, if you have the knowledge and the desire you can make a carpet look great with a toothbrush and some soap. Now we know thats not the case, but just because you have a $80.000.00 Vortex if you have no idea how to use it and you are using cheap ass cleaning products, someone using there $2000.00 portable with really good products will do a better job in the long run than you with your big ass TM.

So are you assuming that someone who is considering a big truck is stupid or doesn't know how to clean?

Can't see someone buying a Vortex and using cheap products to clean!      
Could somebody just clean my carpets!
