A3 Floor Cleaning Machines

We recently sent an Engineer over to Liverpool to replace a damaged squeegee bar on a Viper Fang 20 HD Scrubber Dryer which had inadvertently become caught whilst pulling the machine out of a lift, the bar was now slightly bent and no longer as effective. The office building in Liverpool was occupied by a large law firm who employ over 150 people. The scrubber dryer was used every week night to clean the canteen and corridor floors and the lift was the only practical way to move the machine between floors. The squeegee bar which is sometimes referred to as the suction bar is the curved bar that runs at the back of the machine to collect the dirty water from the floor and extract it into the recovery tank using a vacuum.

Cleaning Machine Hire As we reported previously, the school has been refurbished in recent years and thanks to its academy status, was furnished with the funding for a whole new block for the sciences. However, all this expansion meant cleaning with just one machine wasn’t practical and two more machines would be needed if they were to experience the same cleaning efficiencies enjoyed in one part of the school across the rest of the academy. Fact is modern cleaning machines make the job...

Last month we published an article called “ Planning for the Big School Holiday Clean ” discussing how schools and colleges up and down the country will soon be making classroom floor cleaning and maintenance plans for the summer recess. With no students using the facilities it’s an ideal time to carry out a deep clean.  Many establishments still employ old fashioned (mop and bucket) methods for cleaning their floors and we are always more than happy to pay them a visit and demonstrate how a modern scrubber dryer can do the same job more effectively and quicker. This point was not lost on the head of maintenance at the at Lakelands Academy in Shropshire who had requested a demonstration to see what these machines can do.
