Water Temps

[Larry B]

At what temp are you cleaning carpets?

 

[sweendogg]

As Hot as my truck gets me.. lol.. No Salsa package so Our doesn't get much hotter than 210 or 220 ATM. So I open it all the way regardless of material unless we are doing rugs and I know the fibers might be damaged by slitghly higher heat.

 

[Bob Savage]

It depends on the soil condition, but we can clean up to 270º (which of course is insane).

We have the full range of heat from warm to insane and everything in-between.

That can really help a technician because full range heat can overcome hose lengths, ambient temp outside, dual-wanding, etc.

IOW, you'll always be able to have the heat you are used to when cleaning - regardless.

My salsa CDS gets up to 220-230 while cleaning. But often times it's around 200 ATM while cleaning with my greenhorn cause it takes a while for the blower to get hot....once it does 220-230 and a popping valve and a hot wand for sure.

My next TM will have way more heat. I want 250 ATM sustained for 2 wands at 15 flow each.

 

[ronbeatty]

If we are cleaning residential 240, medical offices or hospital 260.

 

[Chads]

140 t0 150 what ever it will give me at the truckmount.

 

[Bob Foster]

restaurants 250

Little Giant #4 and high flow

I heard you were good at the first part of the sentence.

 

[Ron Lippold]

no one does it better

 

[RLitwin]

I usually set my TM to 200 degrees. That is all I need most of the time.

 

[Dolly Llama]

210-230 or there abouts day in and day out.
with occasional use in the 240 to 260+ range.

all ATM temps with 09 flow Ti @450-500 PSI


..L.T.A.

 

[Out of Character - 0]

250-260 most of the time.

 

[Jim Morrison]

190 - 200 ATW with a Cleanco Compact 47 c/w blower exchanger.

 

[tman7]

190 ATM with some fluctuation; but @ 750 PSI and .1 flow (Greenhorn) who needs a flamethrower? Anyway hoses last a little longer at that temp.

 

[floorguy]

ok anyone who cleans at under 200 and says its just fine....has never cleaned with the higher temps...

you get in the 230-250 range, now we are cleaning some carpet...

240ish here...burner has a 250 switch in it, and i have measured out 100' and it hits the 240 before it shut off...so i guess between 230-240....and that mutha is a hissin and spittin like crazy

 

[Loren Egland]

Usually around 240 on residential, but kick it up a bit when needed. Fuel oil burner with a Greenhorn 10 flow.

 

[ronald pantelas]

240 at the mount, 15 flow greenhorn. Ron

 

[B&BGaryC]

210ATW when it's 30 degrees outside. I imagine that could easily be 220-240 ATW when it's 90 degrees outside, but I could be wrong. Only tested it in the winter, and it didn't seem as hot as summertime

 

[Guest]

Hi flow Lg In rest 240 to 250( gonna get a kero heater soon though); but can't see going to hot on residential 210 more than enough.

 

[Derek]

100 if i'm lucky...prolly more like 85

 

[captaincarpet]

260+ ATW, here I set the machine, I Know its capable of more...but I'm chicken to go higher.

 

[Guest]

100 if i'm lucky...prolly more like 85

I don't want to talk about this no more.

 

[Weebco]

this is an OLD clip, before the turbulators,now it gets MUCH hotter.

 

[mwall2230]

Thomas what psi, flow and how much hose are you running.

 

[XTREME1]

pinned at 240 at the machine. My lie detector broke

 

[captaincarpet]

We were running 400 psi, 9 flow with stubby's from GG, now that we installed the turbulators,... we tried setting the machine at 245 degrees and it actually ran almost 300 non stop. (same set-up)
