Thank you so much for this. My mom and are trying to build up our carpet cleaning business from nothing to thriving ! Appreciate the tips and hoping you more success
Great video, i am starting my cleaning business and i want to offer carpet cleaning, learning a lot from your videos, thank you for taking the time to show us beginners how do these things. 💪🏼🙌🏽
What an absolutely beautiful machine! 5 stars for sure! Rob Allen is to Truck Mounts as Carol Shelby was to the Mustang. The Shelby of Carpet Cleaning.
I'm considering switching to tmf for my full chemical line up. My only hesitance is that I see so many on your truck. I'm a firm believer that less is more, and having the least chemicals possible will reduce risk. Why do you have so many on your van, and what would you reccomend if I only wanted 4 or 5 cleaning solutions and a couple spotters?
Chris Davies that’s entirely possible. We carry a full line of products on our trucks to fulfill our variety of diverse services. Most rarely get used. Prespray, Unchained and PureO2 can do virtually everything carpet cleaning. Throw in a rinse and uph prespray for furniture and you’re good.
@@TruckMountForums thank you for the quick reply. My machine doesn't have chemical injection, so my only option for rinse would be to add it to the fresh water tank (and stop using my hydroforce injection sprayer), or not use rinse. What's the downside of not using rinse? I'm guessing greater risk for alkalinity browning because of the high ph??
I'm seriously considering a truck mount, however most of my business is as a state contractor/vendor. 10,000-20,000+ square feet office buildings. Our contracts are for daily cleaning and carpet cleaning/ hard floor maintenance is a once or twice a year task. The limited outside access points in such large buildings are a problem for the truck mounted units. Lots of hoses to reach everywhere. Also carpet cleaning is only a small part of the contracts, and we have so many contracts it leaves very little time for side jobs where the truck mount could pay for itself. The few times we've outsourced our carpet cleaning have left me very unsatisfied with the results though, and they've always used plug in extractors. Not even sure they were heated extractors tbh. One thing is for sure, our office carpets see dozens of times more daily traffic than a residential carpet would see. Having a hard time visualizing hoses a city block long to reach everywhere though.
I would love to see a video on how to price specialty stain treatments. Coffee , ink ,mustard ect. Also how to price for urine treatments mild to severe when you have to water claw. I charge by the room to clean to keep it simple for my clients . I wanted your thoughts rob on additional pricing for speciality stains that require additional chemistry that are not in the cleaning price.
I work for a restoration company, all of our trucks have them. But we only use them to extract flooded homes. How often are we suppose to turn them on to keep them maintenance?
I have a question about the grout master. I did the mix and put it on the grout and let it sit for 10min. We wiped it up and it didn't turn the grout back to bright white. This was in a normal house.
18 inches of mercury is way too high. More than some blowers are even rated for. Think of it like you are drinking out of a straw. When you bottom out the straw, you can’t drink as much. Same applies to this. You don’t want the wand to suck all the way down to the padding. Optimal amount is 12.5-13.
Looks like complete overkill to me I can achieve the same results with a powerful portable a vacuum and a crb. An extraction machine is just to rinse the carpets you will never need more than 300 psi on a regular carpet clean. something a portable can do at a fraction of the cost ..
Man, I love this. I just did my 10th job and this just gave me a wider perspective of what true carper cleaning is

Professional at it's best , you are the standard of carpet cleaning

I'm not a carpet cleaner but I really appreciate you explaining how that type of machine works. That's pretty cool.
I looked around online to see if I can find a temporary door like the one you use in your video. Where did you get that from? I can't find it.
Thank you for this Information, I had no one else to teach me these techniques.
What an absolutely beautiful machine! 5 stars for sure! Rob Allen is to Truck Mounts as Carol Shelby was to the Mustang. The Shelby of Carpet Cleaning.
I'm definitely going to use the "positive moment of truth" philosophy in my business!
I recently bought a used prochem se, I don’t have owners manual, I’d like to see it being used
what type of filter we need and what type of oil too
These videos are very well made we are so spoilt these days.Wish I had a video like this 10 yrs ago. Thanks Rob by the way Black Label is unreal
So true. If I would have the internet and videos like this 40 years ago I'd be giving Stanley a run for their money. 😅
And thank you for the support.
@@TruckMountForums I believe that. This is also could work as a good training video
Hey Rob....What's the proper rpm on a truck mount engine
Most are around 3000

Chris Davies just do some extra rinse and dry strokes and you should be fine. Plus use air movers.
Hey buddy I’m looking for hydro master evolution stair tool
do you have videos of the mytee etm escape ?
Where can I purchase the floor protector brother?
Excellent video. Very well done. Very informative.😀
Thank you!
do you like the mytee etm escape?
it's truck mount and portable
how to get a live solution line
so i noticed you turned down rpm's and turned down the heat-wouldn't you need to run some water out of the courtesy hose until it cools?
CRB or 175 Which is better Rob?....great video by the way ,keep going.
The TMF Pounder CRB or Multi-Clean CRB is your best bet :)
Good job Rob!
Thank you Taf. Much appreciated.

Can i get that chart please
/ nice. Very professional.

Nice, interesant
Now I’m a slide it guy for reasons u speak of never thought I would ever say that
We appreciate it

Watch out for the Rob Allen Prostar TMs with the broken couplers his private labels cannot compete with belt driven TMs Buyer beware
Niccccccce!!!!!
inspect it

Not only that. Too much vacuum can over heat your blower, that $3000+ part that is integral to your business.
A small child rootinely shits and pisses on our clients rugs.Please to help
If you crash a direct drive, you still can transfer the truck mount into another van lol. It’s not like it has to stay with the van.
if you wreck a direct drive shitcan it. not worth the expense on any level to put a dd in a different van.
Did you count how many times you said "I'm going to GO AHEAD and...?"
clean your truck mount
Good luck to you guys. I'm just checking you out for another income stream 😏

You forgot to wear proper hand gloves 🧤
$100 per room for all those steps $$$$$
