Carpet Cleaning Equipment

From The Independent Voices of carpet cleaners all over Australia and a three month independent review of carpet cleaning equipment the same name keeps coming up again and again…Power Clean, Power Clean, Power Clean

Dear friend,

Mark Briody here from Sydney with Australia’s Non Profit Carpet Cleaning Consumer Guide. What I am about to divulge to you will expose what I personally discovered about carpet cleaning equipment for sale and what happened when I spoke to carpet cleaning technicians from all over Australia… Plus I will reveal what happened when I invested over $80,000 into my own carpet cleaning equipment the very first time and how to avoid being ripped off when you finally make your purchase.

The biggest challenge I had with my carpet cleaning equipment when I ran my own carpet cleaning business was dependability and service. So I decided to do a little investigation of my own since developing this consumer guide. The results of countless hours of research and talking to carpet cleaners all over Australia who own various truck mounted machines has lead to one same result. The majority of genuine carpet cleaning professionals that have been around the longest recommend and use Power Clean Industries Australia who supply the Sapphire Scientific truckmounts and here’s why.

1.Reliability, service, enormous heat, power, incredible suction, high pressure, very easy maintenance etc, etc.

I’ve spoken to numerous technicians who have invested in many different types of carpet cleaning equipment and guess what I found… Every single one of them told me, since using the Sapphire Scientific carpet cleaning machines (some of the models can handle tile and grout cleaning, and even concrete cleaning too), they would never go back to another brand because of reliability, genuine service, heat, suction and the raw power.
When you, as a carpet cleaner start looking at making the big investment into your carpet cleaning equipment (especially if it is your first time) you will learn that the most important traits are reliability, performance, price of course and a long lasting machine that starts every time.

Here is what I recommend you ask the supplier before you invest in any carpet cleaning truck mount machine:

  1. Will you guarantee “in writing” that if I have any problems with my machine that you will get it fixed for me free of charge while under warranty?
  2. Will you “happily” be there for me if I call and need help with trouble shooting in the early stages?
  3. What will you do if my machine breaks down and I can’t get it working? Listen carefully to their answer and make sure you get it in writing as talk is cheap.
  4. Ask what after hour’s support they give (get it in writing).
  5. Why should I buy my carpet cleaning equipment from you when I can buy from so many other companies?

The reasons I recommend you ask these questions before you make your decision on any carpet cleaning equipment is because I learnt the hard way and could have saved myself a lot had I asked the same questions. When I purchased my first truck mount machine I quickly learnt that talk is cheap. I was in the work shop on a regular basis with many problems. I even had a fire break out because the heating system ran on diesel burning system and it was forcing too much diesel through the system hence my vehicle caught on fire. Once they told me the problem was fixed I had the very same thing happen a month later…I don’t think you would want a machine like that.

After my research and learning just how popular the Power Clean carpet cleaning equipment was I made the decision to contact a number of the technicians and get their opinions…here’s what they said

Here’s What Some of The Most Experiences Independent Technicians Say & Think About Power Clean

Peter Willock from Flash Cat Cleaning (WA) – “From the different suppliers we were dealing with at the time, one company stood out. Both Jim & Gary PowerClean Industries Australia spent a considerable amount of time with myself & my associate even well before they knew we were looking to purchase a truckmounted cleaning machine. They assisted us with chemical selections & explaining some technique’s to help us improve our profitability & finished result. So a Trust was developed from Day 1, even though we were not making considerable sized purchases at the time.

When it was time to get serious about purchasing a truckmount, we done our own extensive research and were very serious about a different model in their range and were very happy to purchase this machine. However, after quite a few emails and phone calls, Jim questioned our needs, wants and where our business is heading too, and suggested a few different options that actually saved us several thousands of dollars over what we had decided, but which were more suitable for our operations and planned growth. From understanding and explaining of how the truckmount operates through to recommendations on chemicals for great results, the PowerClean Australia office has become a one-stop shop for us”.

Warren Maker from Gold Label Carpet Care (VIC)– “After having been involved in the carpet cleaning industry part time for a couple of years the decision to go out on my own. Over time, whenever I asked who had the best truckmounts and equipment, one name kept popping up. And even more importantly to me, who had the best back up and after sales service. As I say one name kept popping up consistently, and that was PowerClean Australia. After contacting Jim and visiting him at the trade show (as well as ALL the other suppliers) I eventually made the decision and purchased the Sapphire Scientific 370 SS truck mount from them. This was a major investment for me, but after all my research (over a year) I was more than comfortable that this was the right machine for me; purchased from the right people.
To this day I have no regrets with that decision. I love this machine!  To put it simply this machine makes me look good. Even though I am relatively inexperienced I have been able to out-perform other operators in the area time and time again. Even in the Victorian winter, my clients carpets are dry enough to safely walk on in under 2 hours and come up sparkling clean. I even surprise myself at times!!  My goal when I started my business was to the best job I could, every time and the Sapphire 370  lets me achieve that with ease. My Sapphire truckmount hasn’t missed a beat! To put it simply, after MANY demos by MANY suppliers I can tell you; you would be a sausage short of a barby not to buy one of these machines from these guys!”

Wayne Horne from Wayne’s Cleaning Services (NSW) – “I have been in the industry for many years and had a variety of machines. My previous machine I sold was a Hydramaster Boxxer 421. I had the opportunity to see a new Sapphire truckmount working on a job, and I was simply amazed at the difference in performance. Within a month, I had sold my Hydramaster Boxxer 421, and quickly purchased the Sapphire Scientific 370 SS. Because I live in north western NSW many hours from any distributors/suppliers, I get our local small engine mechanic to service my equipment periodically. He has been doing this for me for some years and is quite familiar with truckmounts.
When I was buying the new Sapphire machine I was getting confused. When I was looking at the specs on this machine, it doesn’t jump off the page and excite you. It doesn’t have a big engine, and it doesn’t have a massive vacuum unit. But the first time you get to play with the machine – the only word you can think of will be AWESOME! The heat, vacuum and pressure that my Sapphire 370 machine produces is so much more that other machines I had demonstrated that were considerably larger in physical size and price!
To anyone looking to purchase a carpet cleaning machines, you MUST call PowerClean. I have dealt with every other supplier in the industry at one stage or another, and no one comes close to their attentiveness and professional approach! If anyone would like to speak with me personally, please feel free to contact me at anytime and ask me about my Sapphire Scientific truckmount and the great way in how I was assisted by PowerClean Australia. My next machine will be purchased through them no doubt.

Noel Lee from FCC Carpet Cleaning (QLD) – “Having been in the industry for more years than I care to remember and having had a number of machines – Electric and Truckmounts – it was time again for replacement of the main cleaner. As  I like to know what is on offer I looked at many makes and models. Out of the blue Gary from PowerClean rang me to say he was bringing up a new Sapphire 370 for me to have a look at and as they say the rest is history.

So what then led me toward the Sapphire truckmount? Smaller footprint than any other truck mount I had seen, extremely high vacuum in a small compact blower, high heat that lasts and last but not least ease of servicing. Since using this machine over the past 12 months the performance still amazes me. This machine is small in stature but huge in performance. We have had up to eight lengths of hose operating off this machine and the floors have been left drier than four lengths from my Prochem Legend SE.  Thanks Gary for bringing this machine up for evaluation”.

Ok, let’s get one thing straight just encase you’re wondering… I do NOT get a kick back, commission, paid or any remuneration of any kind from PowerClean Industries Australia. I do not make a single cent from recommending PowerClean what so ever. I’ve done my own research and invested my own time to obtain accurate information to help you learn the un-bias truth about carpet cleaning equipment without having to listen to the misrepresentation that come from the gun ho sales people selling carpet cleaning equipment.

I was a carpet cleaner once too and I understand the importance of owning a machine that is powerful, has the heat you want and the most important of all…the reliability and service. I run this non profit website as an information website only so the information I reveal here is from the heart and what I’ve learnt from others using various carpet cleaning equipment all over Australia – and some from countries outside Australia too.

Here’s 7 Reasons why I Recommend PowerClean Industries Australia for your Carpet Cleaning Equipment:

  1. They take quality time to actually talk with carpet cleaners and not push a sale down your throat like I’ve personally experienced from some other companies.
  2. Their carpet cleaning equipment and machines are the most powerful in the industry. This has been proven with heat lie detectors for example at some of the trade shows.
  3. I hear more good news from carpet cleaners like you, who use their truck mounts… just like in the testimonials above and that is the best reason in the world to invest in a Sapphire Scientific Truckmount from the team at Power Clean.
  4. RELIABILITY… straight from the mouths of the carpet cleaners themselves, the range of carpet cleaning equipment that PowerClean carry are the most reliable in the industry without a doubt.
  5. The fact that Power Clean go out of their way to service their customers happily and not in a grudgingly manner that can leave a bad feeling between you and the supplier.
  6. Not only are their machines the most powerful in Australia they don’t mislead the buyer with deceptive misleading data on blower strength, heat ability or pressure ability. With Power Clean, what you see is exactly what you get.
  7. And lastly, after getting to know some of the carpet cleaners and now Jim from Power Clean I can honestly say that they really take the time to listen and happily answer your questions without the big sell. I personally put Jim through a gruelling time with my many questions about their carpet cleaning equipment, policies, practises and general help and all while he appeared delighted to be of service. Jim happily made time for me every time I called.
