Our carpet cleaning division just purchased our first dri master unit. I heard a few companies in our province had also started using them to market themselves for faster drying time with the rx-20  results. This is also the direction we want to send our company . How do others feel about the units.

Steamer come in for a test drive.

Yes the Drimaster is on the KK website. We have two we are selling on Friday at discounted pricing along with other deals that would curl your hair.

Drimaster - Easy on the body and dryer carpets faster. Works on truckmount or portable.

I tested a drimaster side by side with a Prochem Power Glide in my own
home. The Power Glide had a better dry time by at least an hour or 2.
The drimaster operates similiar to an RX-20 in the manner in which you
operate it. It has side torch like a floor buffer.

In the past I have gotten nerve damage in my leg from using the RX-20
and so I discontinued using it. The Drimaster started giving me that same
feeling. I think if you are skilled at a buffer you will do just fine running
the drimaster.

I have been told that you almost need a carpet with a pad underneath to
get the drimaster to work up to par. Commercial carpet is not it's forte.
And the floor should not be uneven as with any rotary.

although the Prochem power glide I feel beat the drimaster in dry time ,
it is more akward and heavier lifting in and out of the van. At 49 , I'm
thinking of looking at a Rotovac. Any comments there???

Rotovac is a good tool IMO

once again not the greatest on commercial carpet but great on residential.

 

uses a back and forth motion like a wand.

one thing to watch for is that there is a small section between the heads that doesn't clean so you need to go half way across your last cleaning stroke.

My worker is out on a workers comp injury so This old guy is getting a
work out ! may have to break down and buy a rotovac yet. Anyone out
there us them on an everyday basis????? does it save the back ?

does it do an equally good job as an RX-20. I have an RX-20 but I can't
use it because it messes with the nerves in my leg . Do you think the
rotovac would be easier to handle. any opinions ???

P.S. Good used RX for sale ?? maybe ??
