Joe Morris
C & S Maintenance
Stanley, Kansas
Joe Morris does a lot of commercial work. He says the reason he's so pleased with his Maxx 470 is that he can run 300' feet of hose on the 'economy' speed. He doesn't even need to turn it up all the way.
"The heat is awesome, I burn my hands every time I grab the solution line and the fuel consumption is also great, I hardly use any gas at all".
Brian Cummings
Xtreme Steam
Kansas City, Kansas
Brian raved about his Maxx 470 at Bridgepoint's Customer Appreciation Day. He mentioned that his old truck mount was made by another company and just never got very hot. Brian's Maxx is perfect for his company name. He says that while cleaning carpet in February at 20 degrees his Maxx was so HOT that he had to use towels to roll up his hoses.
Bill LaForce
Are Sea Maintenance
Portland, Oregon
Bill exclaims that he has "LOTS of heat ...my Maxx holds at 230 degrees easily."
Bill does mostly commercial cleaning and often has runs of 6-8 lengths of hose, and even at that 300 - 400 feet, running dual wands he maintains 230 degrees and has plenty of vacuum.
A man of few words, when asked what he likes best about his Maxx Bill says "It's no trouble. That is what I like best about my Maxx 470."
Jeff Parker
Parker's Carpet Service
Gastonia, North Carolina
"I really couldn't be happier with the way HydraMaster stands behind their equipment."
What he likes best about his Maxx 470 is the "Dual-wand operation.Even with the heat set at 2/3 to 3/4 of full, I can run an RX-20 and a wand at 200 degrees.The vacuum is fine.The carpets aren't overly wet at all.No matter what you do at the wands end, it just doesn't affect the power."
"If I were to be in the market for a 3rd machine today, I'd buy another Maxx!"
Bernie Reynolds
Bernie's Carpet Cleaning
Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada
Bernie literally raves about his Maxx 470.He "just loves it!"
When Bernie got his Maxx 470, he didn't think he'd use the dual-wand option much.Now he cleans with dual wands about 70% of the time, simply because "it works so well.It saves me so much time. I was told you need one of those giant machines with dual everything to use two wands.My Maxx 470 does it fine and for long runs. I cleaned one of the British Columbia Ferries that take us to the mainland.Over 400 feet of hose was no problem at all.Oh, and I love your DriMaster Upholstery Tool."
Joe Snead
Dust Busters Cleaning
Grundy, Virginia
"I like everything about my Maxx 470.The high heat stays up so high that I don't have to over wet the carpet to get it clean and it dries so quickly.My Maxx 470 really does have plenty of power to do dual-wands."
"It's easy to operate. Everything is automatic, real simple, real easy for a technician to catch on to. I like the indicator lights.My customers are always impressed if they see it."
John Carsten
Carsten Carpet Cleaning
Everett, Washington
John exclaims that he likes two things about his Maxx 470, "the amazing vacuum and the super heat. I honestly never thought I'd see that kind of heat without propane. I love the convenience of not having to get propane and having it actually heat up as well as HydraMaster claimed it would."
"I was running a tile and grout Turbo at 900 psi, 200 feet out, and it never went under 200 degrees.It even stays really hot with the RX-20.With that much heat and agitation, I don't need much chemical."
"It is quieter than my old truckmount. I like the way it looks and the indication lights.It just runs and runs - I don't even think about it."
"It is a great machine. I'm well satisfied.No complaints whatsoever. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Maxx 470 tomorrow. I'm also real impressed with the way HydraMaster stands behind their equipment."

Jacksonville, FL
"THE HEAT AND POWER ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
After buying your wonderful machine, I thought I would conduct a little test. I ran 800 ft of hose up 18 floors in a commercial building. THIS MACHINE ROCKED IT BABY!! I had heat spewing out of the wand head still! My customer couldn't believe his eyes, and ears, the vacuum was still "singing" into the wand head, the carpet dried in 30 min!
FINALLY I found a machine that can live up to it's claim of "dual" wand, the heat was pouring out of both ends, with steam pouring into our faces! I LOVE IT!
Brice Cady
Crystal Clean
Billings, Montana
He liked their first Maxx 470 so much that he bought a second one. He tells us that they were on a job cleaning down stairs, in a basement, using two RX20's at 300psi. They had 150' of hose on one side and 200' on the other. They were pretty impressed when the area they started cleaning was dry as they finished up. The Maxx 470 held 225-230 degrees consistently.
Brice also did a demo at a commercial account and the business owner said he could see the difference with the Maxx, there was a big difference.

Jim Nardella
Liberty Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning
Youngstown, Ohio
Jim has been a HydraMaster guy since 1979. Jim’s first machine was a HydraCat that is still in service with the original blower and pump, and a rebuilt engine. Jim has always been happy with the service in Cleveland. Jim’s newest money maker is a Maxx 450. Jim says "I love it, it is so trouble free, VERY powerful, VERY good heat ! It easily maintains 240 with 2 DriMaster upholstery tools…The drying times are amazing…I love the drying time.”
Jim has never had an APO (Automatic Pump Out) before and he loves it too. When he doesn’t use the APO, he’s very pleased with the Large 100 gal waste tank. He feels that he is vastly more efficient with the Maxx, he can use dual wands and now he gets great heat without having to buy propane. Jim tells us "I even like the looks of my Maxx. When I open the doors I am really proud of that machine”.
Carlton Helms
A1 Carpet Care
Hungerford,Texas
Carlton states emphatically that "This is my 1st Truck Mount and I'm starting out on top! My cousin uses a Banshee and boy is he jealous."
Carlton likes the way he can adjust the heat to be as hot as he wants and the way it holds up so well even using 2 wands. As an ex-welder, he sings the praises of the Maxx's fabrication and craftsman. He says "The machine cover offers easy maintenance access. The oil filter is easy to get at and it's very mechanic friendly."
"The APO is great. I love to be able to pump out so quickly, in a controlled manner......This machine does it all !"

Burdick's Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning
Warrington, Pennsylvania
John's newest truck has a Maxx 450.John had a Steamway 4200 and says "one of the big benefits is no more kerosene, no more smell, and no more mess."
His Maxx 450 "maintains the same heat as the kerosene machine.It just does an excellent job.It heats quickly and maintains that heat well.It is more convenient, saves time, and uses less energy."
John really likes his Maxx 450's instrument panel.It is very "user-friendly.Even my customers are impressed with the looks, sound, and performance of my Maxx."
John Mason
White Knight Carpet Cleaning
Olympia, Washington
John is a happy camper, or more accurately, happy carpet cleaner.He loves his Maxx 450 and says that "I can feel the power when I turn it on.It is very dependable.When I need extra heat, it's always there."
"My Maxx has so much suction that the carpet dries much quicker than with my old machine. I really like that my waste tank doesn't fill up as quickly. I can do 2 or 3 jobs and sometimes go all day without dumping the waste tank.That saves me a lot of time."
"The Maxx is easy-to-operate and most important, it is very dependable."
HydraMaster Distributor:
Carpet Cleaners Emporium
San Diego, California
Of all our Distributors, Carpet Cleaners Emporium, has probably sold the most Maxx's. Their Maintenance Supervisor, James Clifton, reports that "with every machine sold, our customers are not just happy.They come in praising the machine.They tell me that the Maxx is:
- A work horse
- Truly a dual-wand machine
- Not as complex as the Prochem's, and easily overpowers them, hotter, better vacuum, and more pressure.
We install the Maxx's and don't see the customers again until they come in for chems or have scheduled service.We have 100% confidence in the Maxx 450.Our customers love them."
Steve Husak
Universal Bldg. Maint.
Long Island, New York
Steve had his Maxx 450 Diesel installed in a "monster box truck". Steve used to sub out carpet cleaning. He bought his Maxx because he "wanted the best.This machine turns heads.It's impressive. People like it.the cleaning job it does. the heat it maintains". Steve does mostly commercial and more hard surfaces than carpet. He "runs 400 ft of hose without blinking an eye."
He bought the Diesel Maxx because he feels that most of the stationary equipment in the world is run by diesels and that they last forever. He loves the diesel box truck/Maxx combo and says that he "would highly recommend HydraMaster Equipment and Chemicals to anyone."
Chris Hartwig
Elite Restoration
Las Vegas, Nevada
Chris bought one of the first Maxx 450 Diesel's we produced. He needs a large Box Truck for all his Restoration equipment and loves the fact that he doesn't need to deal with a separate fuel source. Chris says that he keeps the heat turned down for 'normal' cleaning, otherwise it gets too hot.
He mainly uses 2 wands and is very happy with the vacuum he gets. His APO (auto pump-out) is great, it saves him plenty of time, he just turns it on and doesn't worry about stopping to dump. He also likes the front panel instrumentation, with all the bells and whistles, he always knows what's going on.
Paul Adams
ServiceMaster
Stevensville, Michigan
Paul has owned his Maxx 450 Diesel for over a year.We asked him how he likes it. "It's been absolutely awesome" was his first response.
Paul has his Maxx Diesel mounted in a Diesel box truck and uses it mostly for commercial and restoration work. On his commercial jobs Paul uses an RX-20 and tells us this "awesome combo works miracles".For restoration, Paul boasts that it makes "one heck of a flood truck".He has only run 350' with it, but says it works great at that distance.
Paul has run other units before and says the Maxx "eats the 405".He loves the diesel engine and says "It'll run forever".On residential, they get very quick dry times because of the constant high heat, and the vac is so strong many techs run it at the medium setting. His techs are getting spoiled and all want to use the Maxx. We can't tell the nickname they've given it.
