Hi guys,

Carpet cleaning

Can anyone help? We are being asked to clean a lot of communal carpets and empty shop carpets that we don't have any acccess to hot water nor water (apart from us having to knock on residents doors to ask for water) Is there a way that I can store a large container in the van that heats water up ??

Thanks
Natasha

You can clean with cold, make sure you put down plenty pre-spray u wont notice the difference, take a travel kettle if you are using powder pre-sprays to make sure the crystals are fully desolved, so you dont block the jets in the sprayer.

M Power :
I have used it with cold rinse and bonnetted using cold water.
Worked ok, after all in theory you are only rinsing as the cleaner has detached the dirt from the carpet.

Could you use an inline heater? I used a my power flite today, and at the next job the heater was not on, but cold water was still warming, enough to clean.

Very very few things I can take issue with the great John Bolton about, but one of them is heat.
He advocates using cold water and who am I to disagree, perhaps it's just in the mind that we were brought up on 'hot water only' is the be all and end all, but I guess in time we will all (well near all) agree that this works (cold water).

Do you mean Derek Bolton?

On the Cleansmart training course he told me not to waste money on a heater on an extractor.
