Take a look at the PowerClean Truckmount, you won't be dissapointed. This is a very uncomplicated, well put-together and thought-of unit. You will also be seeing soon a new PowerClean entry-level truckmount on this site soon. As it was shown at Connections for the first time last week.

I've actually had less suspension problems with my 3/4 than my 1 tonne but I think it has more to do with newer vans being built wimpy.

both my Prochem and my Cleanco have been good to me so it's a toss up.

i just like the idea of not wearing out the van with the Prochem

The blower, shaft and the fuel pump have nothing to do with the weight of the vehicleBig smile

I have a pto... in a 3/4... would never do that again.... 1 ton all the way
 
and cmaster we have all read about your problems...change this change that...why do you think that is????
 
3/4 ton thats why...
 
why take the chance...do it right the first time.  1 ton is recommended for any carpet cleaning unit...
 
if you carring fresh water 100 gallons weighs 1 ton...that alone is over loading the truck....

Only all the people who try and get by with a 3/4 ton? I tried I guess if you think you know it all more power to you?

Well, i worked in a 3/4 ton for 5 years and never had problems. I mistyped earlier too, i was working with a performer, not the blazer...which is actually a bigger machine.  A 3/4 ton is fine as long as its extended

People will just never learn when it comes to having the proper van to do the job needed. If you are running a small unit like a blazer or the likes a 3/4 ton is adaquate. But with a performer you either need a water softener or carry your own water at least a 100 gallons min. If you go 3/4 ton be prepared to spend your extra money on constant repairs from being over loaded. Save alittle now pay alot later?
