doug why the big dislike for cleanco's???
 
just because they don't stand behind their product????
just because their parts are damn more expensive than a new machine???
Just because they are f'd-up people theirthat really don't want to sell replacement part???
Just because the damn thing is killing the truckslowly???
Just because you can't get any real real heat out of them???
Just because the heat exchangers always has problems after a while???
Just because their tanks are made of sub standard metal???
 
well those aren't any reasons

I thought it would be kind of tough to gross $8-$9/hr with a clean cold?? My mistake I thought he asked how much an hour you can make with a clean cold??

I'm surprised the unit was still in tact after a long drive............usually all the bolts & screws come lose on the way...........I hate to sat this but I think you wouls be better off with a Recoil Portable than a Cleanco

I hope Ed doesn't read this post
