On the Rotovac site they have the Avenger the unit looks identical to the Prochem and Cleancos the difference Avenger costs 9,800 installed Cleanco approx 18,000. between all 3 I noticed just about two differences I do not know if they are adjustable differences. One is cat 3 cp waterpump one operates at 1420 rpm other 1465 rpm . Secondly waterflow rate one is 3.0 plus gpm the other 2.65 gpm. If these are adjustments ok if not ????? I deal with a Cleanco Dealer and I do not want him saying we can't help since you did not buy from us because they are different. They all look similar except covers. Just hope they are made solid the same US made. GUESS I NEED TO BE EDUCATED. |
I just cannot believe the price difference. I believe the Avenger is made byCentury 400 and has been in business for 25 years and is owned by I believe Prochem. And what does Cleanco have to do with this someone cloned someones machine (s)Posted By: MR. STEAMER

You would think they would have thesame heater and wiring done since they are almost identical. I am in a position to save approx 8000 dollars brand new . That sucks !! Heaters I do not know anything about all that sounds expensive. If something is not wired correctly then I could rewire it like a cleanco. It got to be only a minimal amount of wires. Anyone own one of these bad boys. The thing have a 20k loan for a second system for a slide in new TM and a used v6 year 2000 GMC. |

on that small of a TM you can get away with a 3/4 tonne,especially if you're not carrying fresh water
but since going 1 tonne I wouldn't go back..........everything seems to last longer as far as brakes tires etc.
any NEW machine that needs modifications isn't worth buying IMO. ------------- A.K.A. Andy |

One question! What modification does that slide in need ? Is this for the prochem and Cleanco or just the Avenger? Because we own a Cleanco do not know of any mods! Thank you!!! |

I guess that is a good reason to have a 1 ton van to haul around all those usless soleniods??? ------------- Just My opinion |

ALRIGHT LOOKING FOR A 3/4 TON VAN NO FRESH WATER TANK. GOING SLIDE IN. PUT BRAKES ON EVERYTHING GOING TO LAS VAGAS CONVENTION TO FIND OUT WHAT THE DIFFERENCES ARE. ALMOST PURCHASED A 2500 HOUR CLEANCO 56 (PTO) IN A CHEVY SAVANAH 3500 FOR 21000.00 DOLLARS WITH A FRESHWATER TANK IMMACUALTE. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE GAS WILL COME DOWN THEREFORE LOOKING INTO THE SLIDE IN. I PURCHASED A V6 CHEVY ASTRO VAN 2000 WITH A SLIDE LAST YEAR IT IS STILL DOING GOOD FEW PROBLEMS NO DOUBT BOTTOM LINE FEELS LIKE I AM SAVING MONEY ALTHOUGH IF THE VAN IS STRAINING FOR POWER DAMMIT MUST GO V8 AND SELL NUETRALIZER DEODERIZER ON EVERY CALL TO MAKE UP |
