1 - General Information
CONGRATULATIONS,
You now own a piece of equipment that incorporates the latest in carpet cleaning technology.
The Chem-Dry PowerHead®’s features will almost certainly increase the productivity of
you and your business, while decreasing the fatigue factor that may have prevented you
from going after some of the large cleaning jobs that are available to carpet cleaners and
maintenance professionals today. With competition as strong as it is in most communities,
you have invested in not only a cleaning tool, but a marketing tool that will enhance your
professional image in every way.
The Chem-Dry PowerHead is REVOLUTIONARY. Your foresight in purchasing this
ultimate “cleaning machine” will be rewarded with the knowledge that you care enough to
give your customer the maximum cleaning effectiveness.
Using the PowerHead in your business will turn you into a professional carpet cleaning
operator, rather than a professional laborer.
Once again, congratulations to another Chem-Dry cleaning professional who will not wait
for tomorrow, and who will not have to compete against the PowerHead. The competition
will have to compete with you!
AN EVOLUTION THAT HAD TO HAPPEN
Your new PowerHead has been precision engineered to bring you to the state-of-the-
art in carpet cleaning. In the past, a wand technician had to supply all the pressure and
motion to do the cleaning. The PowerHead’s weight distribution and rotary motion enable
the technician to maneuver the unit easily with less fatigue and without back strain.
The PowerHead’s electric motor drives its precision transmission which, in turn,
rotates the cleaning head assembly. The Natural® cleaning solution is injected through the
center of the stainless steel gear box shaft directly to the five spray jets. Soiled solution is
then extracted from the carpet by five stainless steel extraction cleaning heads and drawn
through the aluminum exhaust manifold to the cleaning unit’s recovery tank.
CONSTRUCTION
The base, manifolds, handle, gear box housing, and cleaning heads are all cast aluminum.
Other parts are either metal, stainless steel or high impact plastic.
