Amazing power! Our customers say it all the time, especially our customers who switch from using portables to using a truck-mounted American Caddy Vac.
The most effective way to clean air ducts and ventilation systems is to place the system under negative pressure. With the powerful vacuum employed in an American Caddy Vac, most of the time your team can place the entire system under negative pressure. This saves so much time over weaker units (portable or truck-mounted units) that require your team to set up one zone for cleaning, clean that zone, resetting for another zone, and so on. If you can place the entire system under pressure at one time, your team can clean the entire system at one time! This saves man hours, and allows for a more thorough cleaning.
And make no mistake about it, having a powerful truck-mounted unit also saves a tremendous amount of frustration. If you have good employees, who want to do a good job for their customers, it is frustrating for them to have to settle for less. The American Caddy Vac is the most powerful unit on the market today, allowing your crews to clean residential, commercial, and industrial systems in less time, with fewer hassles, and better results.
Mike, “MJ” Palazzolo is president and CEO of Safety King Air Ducts Cleaning in Utica, Michigan. Mike’s crews run a fleet of power vac trucks including 10 American Caddy Vacs. Of all the tools they have at their disposal, Mike’s team loves to use their American Caddy Vacs. “Much of what makes Caddy Vac so great isn’t just new or novel concepts… a lot of the features on their trucks aren’t new ides… American Caddy Vac has just perfected the execution. So for example, the concept of a PTO driven vacuum, that’s been around for a long time… but the gearing was too small and the bodies weren’t put together the right way so they broke frequently and they rusted out after just a couple of years… What American Caddy Vac is doing is the same ideas, they have just perfected the execution. So the truck is a lot more durable, it’s a self-contained unit, it has everything we need on it, it’s a fantastic billboard when it’s on the road or on a job-site. Those are some of the things that we like best about it. And TONS of power! We have hundreds of competitors in our area and they range in using things like shop vacs and leaf blowers all the way up to American Caddy Vacs. If I was to guess, I’d say a quarter of them now are buying American Caddy Vacs. There’s maybe a quarter of them that are buying other Power Vac machines, and then maybe the other half of them are trying silly things… you know, going in with all portables, or shop vacuums and roto-brushes – things that baffle you – how they would try to keep business that way. The difference is power. Now, we use portables in some situations too. Sometimes you need that. The guys don’t like using them, they want to be using the Caddy Vac every day because it is just so powerful and reliable.”
Our other customers agree. To have that kind of power simply makes the job better, and creates the opportunity to serve customers better. The more power you can bring to the job, the cleaner the system will be when you leave.
And that’s why we’re in the business! To make air ducts and ventilation systems clean!
