Hello Russell,

Although it has only been 7 months since I purchased my Cleanco Compact 47 P.T.O. from Cleanforce I thought I would give you some feedback about it.
What impresses me the most is the consistency of the heat it produces. From cleaning carpets to tile and grout cleaning the heat remains high and constant unlike my previous dual wand machine which would drop away once tile cleaning. Customers have commented on the quick drying time of their carpet after it has been cleaned and also the quality of the clean as well.
Being able to do flood extraction without having to hook up to water is a real bonus and time saver and I really like the feature of being able to operate the machine whilst the van is completely locked, this is great for security. I have been very impressed with its performance and reliability.

Russell,

I just thought I’d drop you a line on our Cleanco Compact 47 P.T.O. now that it is 3 years old. As far as performance goes, as you know we run a 2 man team with the P.T.O. We have surveyed our customers and they tell us the carpet is dry in 3-4 hours even when we dual the machine up. The water temp consistently runs at 230C +. We have had very few problems with it, the occasional belt to be replaced, nothing really serious. We have the van serviced about every 5000km, at this time the machine is serviced too, it seems to work well not having the van and the machine off for separate days for servicing. The one thing I have noticed is the fuel savings. We use the PTO for most carpet cleaning jobs, our fuel account is far less than what it was prior to the P.T.O. We have also measured the amount of water we use on the average job and we were surprised on how little water it actually used. Overall we are really happy with the machine for the obvious reasons. It cleans carpets; it’s cheap to run and there is very little down time.

Russell, thought it was about time I bought you up to date with my Cleanco
Compact 47 P.T.O. I am pleased to be able to tell you that I have found all my assumptions regarding the running and operation of the Cleanco Compact 47 to have been proven, what I find most appealing is the reduction in consumption of both fuel and water. I feel I have been able to reduce my fuel costs by at least a third and with the configuration of the water heating there has been a dramatic improvement in the water usage by the machine in that I estimate that it would use a quarter or less of the volume of water I was used to using,this of course shows when dumping of the waste water, and with no loss of heat, a winner in my book. I have found the backup provided by Cleanforce to be excellent and servicing costs very reasonable.
The reliability has been a standout which I must say leads to a very stress free work environment.
