New Recovery Unit

[Lightning Gene]

I have the means of Recycling and Recovery. Just installed the Hydro Tek AZV 55 but the rain and cold have prevented me to give it a good workout. Plan on going to the city next week to demonstrate and become 1st on a list of EPA Compliant approved Pressure Washers in the area.

Very Nice! I talked to a hydro-tek rep,and it was over $3k,without the vacuum recovery surface cleaner.It is not hard to make a similar system yourself for way under $1k.the components are pretty basic.A vacuum with a pump out(sump pump)inside,sock filter,and oil absorbent pad inside,and a couple of polishing filters that the sump pump pumps to mounted on the outside.You could probably assemble it for under $600 if you tried.The vacuum surface cleaner will have to be bought though,a little tricky trying to modify a regular surface cleaner and get it right.I found my Hyper-turbo vacuum surface cleaner ($1800 new)from Turbo-force,for $425 brand new on ebay,from a guy who never used it.

I've been using Steel Eagle's for over 3 years and I love them. Look into Nikro's Dual motor wet vac and plumb a sump. I've got 4.

I like the nikro drum vac's Craig.I have a tornado dual motor drum vac that I like,that I have a sump plumbed into.I also Have a Hydramaster truckmount carpet cleaning unit with a 16 hp Briggs, vacuum blower,and propane heat that I am setting up for Pressure washing vacuum recovery,and tile and grout cleaning. I also have 2 WAP turbo floodsucker vacs with automatic pumpout.They are the same models used at the pentagon during 911 to pumpout the water to put out the fires.They list for over$3300 each and I picked them up on ebay for under $150 in mint condition.I pump them to a portable wash water filtration unit that has an oil water seperator,and a multi stage filtration,system that includes a koch membrane filter,and three stage polishing filters,with a stainless gould pump for pumping to my waste water tank.It goes for over $4500,and I picked it up for $145 on ebay! I know you can't find everything you need all the time when you need it on ebay,These items have taken a few years to accumulate,but if you look hard enough you can put together a nice system pretty economically.
