I think that will be the hard sell....getting past the idea that you are going to mess up the customer's floors, bathroom toilet, plumbing, etc., especially in the case of septic tank situation like we have around here. I think it's a pretty good idea....just not in my financial deck of cards at the moment. Recession, you know.

Rotovac's New CFX Continuous Flow Extractor is a neat little carry-in carpet cleaner that can also be inserted at any time in your truckmount vacuum hose anywhere between your wand and dirty water tank.
It in itself has an extra 200 inches of water lift to add to your existing truckmount but the water being sucked to your return tank actually never gets to your tank. The dirty water actually flows through the CFX and in the process gets filtered then automatically gets pumped via a simple low pressure hose to anywhere you wish.
Back into the toilet in the house IS LEGAL.
The Rotovac CFX can also be used in flood situations and as a high-powered portable carpet cleaning machine.

The inline filters are great at keeping the crud out of your wastetank and pump out system and don't affect airflow if you clean them regularly ( which takes about 30 seconds ).

Okay, first...for those who think I"m lying....well, bite me, 'cause I'm not.
I don't dump in the street or down the gutter 'cause it's illegal and I can't afford the fine and the bad reputation. Also, I don't want to eat the fish out of the ocean that have been swimming in that stuff (which is where it eventually winds up). I'm not a stickler for the rules and the law, etc., but I don't want the hastle that comes with bucking the system. I don't need to lose clients, I need to make them happy. Around here, you can legally dump it down the 'sanitary sewer,' meaning the concrete hole in the ground that goes to the sewer treatment plant. How you do this varies. I have a clean out at my house. Also, you can dump on a client's property with permission as long as it doesn't run off. Someone mentioned that it was okay to dump in the gutter 'cause it would run off, just like car wash stuff. Well, that's illegal. You aren't supposed to let soap run off your property either 'cause it'll get in the stream and the fish will eat it and then we'll eat it and get cancer. You don't want your kids to get cancer, now do ya? Pump outs are cool but are often broken. They come in handy when you have a full tank and have to keep working and want to dump but don't want to ask the lady of the house. I take my pump out hose and put it somewhere out of the way, like in the bushes, and just keep working while it pumps out. You have to keep an eye on it 'though as it might pump out enough juice to go down the street....and as you know, that's ILLEGAL. Just don't dump on her tomatoes.... |

Those "jug" filters are fine if you keep them clean between jobs. They are sold on the idea that you can show your client a 'before' and 'after' view of the filter (how much dirt you got out of her carpet). They also make it easy on your if you suck up some earings or something.

Got my first big job tomorrow with my TM I aim to bring it home every time and down the sewage drain.
Neighbours have already sussed me out as we have a party drain serving 3 houses and don't want any lint backing up the sht. Thinking of getting one of those jug filters but someone told me they really screw up airflow? |

Tokmik, (is that short for Toxic Michael?) the only really "natural products" there are would be what you can pick up off the ground, i.e. naturally occurring elements. Other than that, if it is processed in any way, it's no longer natural e.g. filtered water.
Does it come out of the ground that way? No... it gets filtered then bottled and before anyone says "Perrier" or similar, even that gets filtered these days after the shock of finding that so-called pure water source contaminated with pollutants!!! PS Bubonic Plague was all natural, a teaspoonful of that is enough to wipe out the population of New York.... still say "natural" is always good? |

if you're using natural products how bad can it be... no worse than washing your car in your drive way, gas/oil spills in the road.

Do people who dump their dirty water illegally also make it a habit of farting out loud in a nice restaurant? The two actions seem to go hand in hand. Just asking.

Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?
