The Challenge: The
carpet you see in this photo is obviously much dirtier than the average job.
The reason for this is to demonstrate the dramatic difference between the
cleaning ability of a wand vs. a Rotovac PowerWand.
To make the carpet this dirty, we simply sprayed it with water and then
dragged it around a dirty parking lot.
Equal Conditions: Using
the same portable extractor and the same chemical, we cleaned one portion of
the carpet with a wand for two minutes and then right next to it with the
ROTOVAC PowerWand for two minutes.
Cleaning
with the Wand:
When
cleaning with the wand, notice that the technician is bent over in an
uncomfortable position. Results depend on the amount of "elbow grease" and
number of cleaning passes he is willing or able to make.
Cleaning with the wand is strenuous, physical labor.
Cleaning
results after 2 minutes of hard scrubbing with the Wand: When
cleaning with the wand the operator applied all the elbow grease he could
and made approximately 120 cleaning passes. How long he could sustain
that cleaning pace would depend on his strength, stamina, and work ethic.
Cleaning
with the Rotovac:
When
cleaning with the ROTOVAC, notice that the technician is standing in a
comfortable, upright position. He is easily guiding the ROTOVAC with one
hand while the ROTOVAC supplies all the elbow grease for him.
The ROTOVAC reduces the task of extraction carpet cleaning to an easy one
handed operation.
Cleaning
results after 2 minutes of easy cleaning with the Rotovac: In
just two minutes the Rotovac produced 3,000 multi-directional cleaning
passes. Here you can see how the cleaning results of the Rotovac are
dramatically superior to the wand.
