question for you Butler owners?

[Mikey P]

Do any of you run them bone stock?

Live vac reel
Whip hose
Butler 1.5 wand



I bet more are than those that go all Saigery with them.




I want to try one up here on the Chaparral.

[Matt Middleton]

Not me. Saigerized is the ticket!

 

[hogjowl]

I thought you ran one once?

 

[Mikey P]

I thought you ran one once?

I did but went all 2" and no live vac...

 

[hogjowl]

I’d go live with a Dev 1.5
I’d just have the Y on it so I could disconnect from the live for 100 ft hose runs

 

[Mikey P]

how are your dry times down there in the swamp with your Cleanco and Dev 1.5?

 

[hogjowl]

3 to 4 hours

 

[Mikey P]

If you really clean it, that's to be expected..

 

[Steve Lawrence]

I've seen Butler guys using the live vac hose reel with about a hundred feet of coiled hose to go thru before the waste tank! I've seen Kurt Bolden fret about the tiny amount of suction loss from a short hose on the Hydro X opposed to the 2" vac hose straight to the unit.

I've never used a Butler stock. We use 2.5" vac hose from the tank, Parflex pressure hose, tried Butler wands but didn't like them so we use others, too. The unit can be a monster but stock is not monstrous! But we'll continue to buy them if they can get a handle on the price.

 

[Mikey P]

Do we really need Monstrous?

 

[DAT]

Ya looking for new truck for GV? Addon or replacing the 370?

 

[Mikey P]

No, just curious.


I'm the curious type of you haven't noticed.

 

[Steve Lawrence]

Do we really need Monstrous?

At least enough to power a Zipper Super Spinner!

 

[Mikey P]

Ouch, yeah..

 

[Bruce Humphrey]

150ft live real , I have the butler wand but won't use it. I have the Mach12. It does everything I need it to do.

 

[Kenny Hayes]

I thought you might be considering that for Paula Would be the perfect choice

 

[Kenny Hayes]

Then you would be like Saiger Roll up with 2 trucks on every job, wow.

 

[Dolly Llama]

Do we really need Monstrous?

before or after you bought your mini-mount?

..L.T.A.

 

[Mikey P]

You mean before or after I moved to the land of 15% humidity

 

[BradFenstermaker]

Our humidity is ridiculous right now
72 dg house with ac running at 9am I just pour sweet.

Had to institute Richard Simon's headband 2 x this week already
Steam On

 

[Mark Saiger]

Maybe I need to swing that way coming home from Phoneix

 

[hogjowl]

Don’t start swinging
You’re annoying enough straight

 

[Bob Pruitt]

The bigger blower and high ... totally adjustable heat is nice. The rest of it isn't that big a deal...except the big water tank... because when you need water, you got water.
I don't like live reels hot or vac, but it comes with the big waste tank...which Saigerized by-passes the vac with the Y.
Just a reliable machine. A throw back really...very little tech. Not much that Mark can't fix next time he's in Florida... lol.

I have a competitor who I talk with from time to time. He's been cleaning carpet forever.

Has a top-of-the-line Butler and another van with a SS 570. Definitely doesn't run the Butler stock (no live connections or whip).

He said the 570 crushes the Butler on performance, but the Butler never keeps him up at night from stress.

Doubt it's a top of the line Butler or the Butler would make the 570 look like a toy. Basic model Butler...maybe...

A toy? I’ve never used either of his machines but the 570, at least on paper, is a monster.

 

[hogjowl]

Who cares

 

[Meter Maid]

I do. You don’t matter.

Paper monster vs. the real thing.
