You can be whatever you want to be at industry events. Ive seen many outstanding business owners posting on the various boards over the years and met a few geniuses at the fests I’ve attended during my time in this industry.

There's a fine line between genius and idiot.
Some wander back and forth.

Having just said that, I’m thinking the actual cleaning side actually IS just a hobby for Mikey now.

and here I thought that I made that very clear..

and why this unit would be near perfect for me and all the many other hobbyist/semi retired 2%r's out there.


This unit will not sell in droves due to limited water flow (2)

I had a Mytee escape for a short time. Got it with a bunch of other stuff I bought. Makes a great shop machine, lots of power but no heat. Trying to run it as a truck mount would be a nightmare. No waste tank, you have to depend on the auto pump out which can be problematic. No heat unless you add a propane or other heater. It did have a proper pressure pump capable of 800 psi on at least a 4 flow wand. 4 vac motors both in series and parallel I believe. Need 4 -115v power cords or 2-220 v power cords. Or a generator in your truck. By the time you added a waste tank, generator and propane heater, you could have bought an entry level truck mount. With this Hydro Clean, without knowing anymore about it, it seems like you are powering it from the trucks engine. Just replacing the drive system and vacuum pump with electric vac motors. Maybe provide some more specs on it. How many vac motors, what type of pump, exactly how much power does it need?

The way the vacuum system works to get truck-mount performance is that it has a 3 gallon vacuum tank that is diverted into a 50 gallon recovery tank or pumped out the front.The two one stage vacuums (parallel) get most of the CFM (320 cfm) The third motor ( a 2 stage) is maximizing the lift. (180") Also adding 40 CFM to the total vacuum system.So the total vacuum is:14 HG180" of lift350 CFM = Truckmount Performance.

My secret weapon! Is wha sets me apart from others. It is an antique by manys standards. But really it is a steamgeni 16" 4 jet weighted drag wand. I.prespray then clean every carpet with a rotary extractor using emulsifier. When finished i switch to a rinse and completely rinse n dry using this. Rotary gets carpet completely clean and relatively dry. Following up with the drag wand gets the carpet residue free and very dry

The heart that you have for this work is wonderful. You inspire me Dwain.
