Whip hoses...

[Mikey P]

My SS12 is Flared to take 2 inch hose.

they all are

I used both sapphire wands yesterday with and without a 8' whip.

I've come to the mature veteran cleaner conclusion that only idiots asking for joint issues, wouldn't.

If you know how to wand, 2"straight might cut off 5 minutes of dry time on a humid day with the windows closed and a plugged up filter.

No, those tapered hoses collapse/kink too easy.

Just 8' of good ol' porty hose

Or you can pretend you have a penis and use 2” hose.

I've been using the 1.5 ss12 for about a week now and my biceps are throbbing.

I realized when I used the 2' -14 Dev wand I would use my legs more and my biceps less.
With the smaller the wand I let my guard down and changed my technique, using my biceps more;
I'll be more aware and correct that.

Wasn't it you that said a 2 ply tapered hose was available somewhere now?
I remember reading something somewhere.

If I did, I was wrong

When it comes to selling wands..

We're considering adding wands to the GreenGlides site Devastators 12/14 Sapphire Titanium 12/14 Westpak steel low profile/4 jets w/ Glide ($600-$700 range) AW29 w/ GG Is there other wand worth bothering with?

If your brain functioned properly, it would realize it’s full of shit when it talks about five minutes more dry time using a whip.

I use a whip and have fast dry times. Humidity plays a large part.

I thought you were using 2 inch all the way?

 

[Nomad74]

No. I switched to a whip and a 1.5 dev wand.

You've got the right machine for it.

Did I say five? I meant two...

I find it all depends on the carpet. I always have 2 inch and 1.5 inch on the truck. When I get into heavier carpets, I go two inch. Average carpets, 1.5. if I put my 2 inch pmf/cleanco wand on my 47 blower, it's really hard to move it. Tears my shoulder up. Works good on my 45 blower. My westpak 2 inch with the green glide works great with the 47. Glide is more rounded and easier to push. My pmf mach 12 works great with both machines. I'm sure the Sapphire is almost as good.

I don't understand why all carpet cleaners don't look like him. Must be the Alcohol after work?
