So,not counting the franchisee's who may be stuck buying a particular brand machine, how many Machines are sold every year? Just how many Carpet cleaners are there in the U.S. and canada?
These questions pertain to both Gas/oil fired and Heat exchange machines.
How long would you expect the average TM should serve you?
I know some have indicated they are partial to Stainless Steel. Just curious if cost was 1000.00 to 1500.00 difference between Cold steel and stainless, would you be willing to pay that much difference? I would think that Stainless would only be important if you kept the same machine longer than 10 years. A properly Powder coated steel frame should last at least that long.
How important is an Automatic Pump out? Are they high maintenance?
Is there anything your truck mount doesn't have, that you'd like to see?
What has been the biggest if any problems with your Truckmount? This is not about any one particular company. I will tell you that I am considering small engine repair and Small industrial equipment repair as well as Welding.
If you bought your Truck mount new, did it come with a Manual that pretty much explained everything? A service Manual? I know that some do their own maintenance. Would you consider it if you did have a thorough service/ repair manual for the machine?
Thanks in Advance
