Re: Zipper Wand Floater/Loaner

by Joe Bristor Sat Dec 07, 2013 9:33 pm

Bill I sent you some for residential Bill. Should be there soon, US Priority. Proceed with the ones you have then switch to these others and make note of the differences.

what we need to now, desperately is decide the order for the US Floater.
It sits in Minnesota waiting to get floating.
We need to map out as route.
Who here, if anybody wants it next?

by Davey Cracker Sat Dec 07, 2013 9:55 pm

Waant it next, ME!........but you already know that!> wink

by milspec6 Sat Dec 07, 2013 10:55 pm

If it is in Minnesota, it is near by for me. Not to be pushy, but I do have a 22k sqft job scheduled for the evening of Dec 16th. It would be nice, but I can wait as well.

Did Pat get a go with it up in Minnesota? Good guy, really don't want to skip over him if he wants to try it out.

by Davey Cracker Sat Dec 07, 2013 11:00 pm

Wow, 22k sf......sounds like Robert is the perfect candidate for the next tester. wink

I only hope I have a big job like that when it comes my way.

by Joe Bristor Sun Dec 08, 2013 8:31 am

For you Davey I cant see shipping cross country, surely there's somebody along the way interested?
btw, price has come down and we got it jetted for both comm. and residential.

Sounds like it's Robert.
I'll ship it to you.

pm'd Pat. He better speak up by tomorrow.

by milspec6 Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:33 am

Fantastic! There must be others in this areas who want to take a turn, isn't there?

Here is your chance lurkers, if you are within a few hundred miles, I will get you some very valuable hands-on experience with the Zipper....any takers?

by Eric Valentine Mon Dec 09, 2013 7:33 pm

Hmmmm....I am about 150 miles away from you Robert...

by Bill Soukoreff Mon Dec 09, 2013 7:44 pm

Thanks Joe. I have not received the jets yet, but I used it on three big jobs today and had no issues. One was a trashed short cut nylon, second a nylon loop berber and the last was a freize.

I can't wait till the gag order is lifted! I have not been so excited about a piece of equipment since my first glide.

Hopefully, it will be available in time for the marathon cleaning (I am confident) and then I will get with you over the weekend to share the experience.

When is the program going to begin, or has it already. If it has, can you post delivery status so we can schedule our best test jobs for when we will be getting it. Thanks.

It is already in progress. I just finished 22k cgd and will be testing it on some residential today....but first need an hour nap before heading out for a 4:30 am job. It is a good thing I never sleep bounce

by kleen1 Wed Dec 18, 2013 3:22 pm

Great! I'm getting it after Ryan.

by milspec6 Wed Dec 18, 2013 7:31 pm

I have a theater to do Friday night and I will have all the data that I need at that point. It has been very educational using this tool, very glad to have had the chance to test drive it. Once we are allowed to provide the results / opinions, I will be doing so.

Hopefully, we can get it on its way next week to continue the exposure.

Fellas I have not had this wand in my hands. But from what I've seen in video, we are looking at a beast of a wand for high production rates. If I observe a great flush rate and recovery. I may have just found a new tool to market. The new design of the Jr. Looks to be like the BMW of scrub wands.

My only concern is matching this wand with the TM. I believe adjusting the flow may be an area to fine tune in matching TM performance.

Looking forward to working with this gem of innovation.

Adjusted correctly with the back glide up a 1/4-1/2", this is how the Zipper should ride on a padded carpet. Listen to it dig, I can do this effortlessly all day long. The carpet was a thick nylon and will probably be dry in an hour.

by milspec6 Sat Dec 28, 2013 9:29 pm

Okay gang, where is the Zipper going next? I can have it re-packed and sent out on Tuesday...just need to know where to send it.

by Davey Cracker Sat Dec 28, 2013 10:34 pm

Right here!!!!!! laughing

I know, I'm just kidding, Joe! laughing

by beeclean Sun Dec 29, 2013 9:01 am

Hey, I Can't wait to try the Zipper! Thanks

by Joe Bristor Sun Dec 29, 2013 12:52 pm

Dean (BEE Clean) is the perfect OO to get it next.
He's got the whole range of techs under his command.
If they accept it, it will be the final proof I need to start pushin this thing like a 4 finger bag of sensimilla. Twisted Evil

by Bill Soukoreff Tue Dec 31, 2013 4:16 pm

Just make sure they learn how to adjust the height, and any doubts call Eric. It's so easy, but you do need to have a brain and listen to the unit. Very Happy

Also, play with different PSI. Don't be afraid to really turn it up if you have a decent blower. Check your filter twice as often, you need to!

Also, think differently. You can clean into a room and not just out out, learn how to use the dual cleaning ability in your favour instead of fighting it.

by milspec6 Tue Dec 31, 2013 5:17 pm

Dean, it is on the way...email sent with tracking.

Bill is 100% correct on that, especialy the height adjustment.

by beeclean Wed Jan 01, 2014 9:59 am

THANKS!! I like to clean "IN" on long halls because they are not spending half the time moving hose out of the way and turning the pressure up makes great sense! HAPPY NEW YEAR

by Bill Soukoreff Mon Jan 20, 2014 7:02 pm

How is the US floater going. No action here.

Another cleaner and I here both bought one. Who has it now?

by Ryan S Mon Jan 20, 2014 7:09 pm

It's in Virginia with Roland. He has about 36k of carpet on deck.

by Ryan S Mon Jan 20, 2014 7:11 pm

How are you liking the zipper Bill? Got some feed back on performance. What do you like most about it.
