Chem-Tex makes an intermediate truck mount for about 7k brand new, including reels, hoses and waist tank. I think its the green one called the panther.  I have not heard much about them, but if you call them they seem to like to wheel and deal.  I almost bought one, but went another direction.  If your just staring up, portables or a used piece of equipment (depending on how handy you are) are not a bad idea, just to get you started and get some money coming in.  Plus if you can keep your business running for about a year, it will develop credit and then you can lease a new one and sell off your used stuff.  Good luck on you carpet cleaning adventure.

Skip the van, buy a trailer and put an inexpensive truck mount in it.  YOu can get the whole setup from Chemtex in Houston for about $13K with 200 feet of hose, chemicals, trailer, wand, stainless fresh and dirty water tank, hydraforce,  tile cleaner, Tongueetc.....
 
If you are in Texas you probably own a pickup.  Pull the trailer with you pickup and if the carpet business doesnt work out in a few months, then sell the trailer setup and move on.

300ft.. Well that might be true on CGD.. But not good dry times on residential carpets like nylon cut or loop.. nylon frieze.. it would be soak and wet..

Good.. Do yourself a favor.. Run the unit for awhile.. Do some cleaning with it to see if you like it.. I'm sure you will.. That's the mistake i made when buying the different portables.. I didn't test run them.. So was somewhat disappointed from the advertised  hype..]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 22:13:52 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4260&PID=127505&title=felony-carpet-cleaning#127505 <![CDATA[felony carpet cleaning! : still got my eye on that scout,...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4260&PID=127497&title=felony-carpet-cleaning#127497 Author: STEAMPRO

On the spit 3.2.. yesterday i helped my buddy descale and change the oils in his.. The psi went up to 475.. Yea only a 33 but sure has some balls.. I can tell you that it will blow away ANY portable.. You portable guys just stash the cash.. You will soon have your TM..

Looks like I am going to buy the same thing....I was looking at the spitfire, but someone told me that it only gives about 400 continuous psi.    I want to do tile too and I think the Scout would let me do that. Anyone have any comments about the Scout on tile???

Stay in touch and we will work out our Scout problems together. I will probably buy mine in about 6 weeks.

What size fresh water tank are you buying?
i got my mind set on that scout! that spit fire only has a 33 blower and the scout has a 36! and the scout is still cheaper!Big smile]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2007 17:07:49 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4260&PID=127431&title=felony-carpet-cleaning#127431 <![CDATA[felony carpet cleaning! : ]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4260&PID=127430&title=felony-carpet-cleaning#127430 Author: STEAMPRO
