Not yet…the logos never, ever got into the contour on the E-150 properly…so it is a continuous bubble.
Greg,
Just curious. We have not had a website before this year and it is located at heavensbestlancaster.com and would like to learn a couple of things 1) Just what does it cost to get into the top 4-5 places? and 2) Does it pay? meaning a 10:1 return on investment.
If you prefer to call- Dave 717-898-6340 anytime and or drd175@comcast.netThanks….

Thanks Dave, I guess I did not clarify the issue….
I do not wish to use electricity , or the least amount possible, so I am looking into a solar water heater, not solar power.
With using the basic system, with some modifications, I should be able to reduce the electric costs dramatically. While augmenting the hot water system we have now with solar heated water, I should be able to drastically reduce electric dependency…
I am also looking into a solar heater system for winter as well.
We are looking at something like a 45 +% increase in our electric fees in te future and I want to ensure that we are not going to be creamed…
Others in th country will be hit one of these days for sure…I am attempting to be ahead of the curve.
Thanks for your suggestion and article…
I replaced with a different sized tip…not the same . There are a number of different sizes 8002, 8003, 8004…etc. I forget what I used, but when it pulsed, the flow was being restricted. To check this out, I removed the strainer (which might be covered with scum) and cause the same issue as well. If I took the strainer off and sprayed back into the bucket…no pulsing.
It may also be that the pump is bad…but at a bunch of bucks a clip, I found that it was not always the culprit.
We should have a troubleshooting guide with the equipment when it is not practical to call office or get parts…just an opinion.
Mine pulsed years ago after I replaced the pump….well I think I figured it out for me any way…
The orifice of the sprayer needs to be changed sometimes. The tip may have been stopped up by a piece of grit or whatever. There are numerous sizes of tips for the end spray, and again I am a little surprised that corporate is not in here helping…..
Easy fix to get the right tip from a full service hardware store, maybe not Lowe’s or HD though, more of a farmer’s supply store. They may have the other parts you may need as well. Great for immediate fixit problems of the Ninja and extractor, if the home office is closed or not able to help immediately.
P.S.-One of my nightmares came true..both sprayers went out at the same time, handle leaked and they both were pulsing. We were busy and on one Saturday, got all working well, without missing a stroke. Only other option was to be down for a couple of days and no money….
I have a copy of a stopped payment check on my wall to remind me…For me to go to the Justice of the Peace and pay $75 or so bucks to try to get $223…go to court with son and deal with the issue just is not worth the hassle. The other was a physician who left the state and for an unknown reason would not pay..and we worked for him for 2 years! Every three months….$505..down the tubes.
In nearly 6 years of doing business we have had a sum total of 4 fail to pay or moved out of state sticking us for a grand total of about $900.
Also, if we take charge cards, it is paid for first….run through and make sure the money is paid ok.
Times are going to get rougher…me thinks.
You might try visiting churches and giving them literature and speaking with someone and giving a quote.
You cannot quote a churc over the phone, and they will/are not going to have just anyone clean for them and they are good pay.
So, I may do this myself…now that I am thinking about it…
We have a listing of 849 churches in Lancaster County, PA and I am going to get into a Excel format after purging and see what happens in several mailings.
I believe that every church that has called for a quote, we have serviced…
Many returns and they are good to pay…
Here, in Lancaster County, PA this question has been asked more often as any other.
I say that we are and, if pressed, share my church name and that the company is a franchise operation.
I have never, knowingly had any problems as a result of that reply.
Just yesterday I quoted on cleaning the chairs in a local coffee house..I declined to do the vinyl flooring. Wanted to strip & wax.
Hope to get the chairs though….
The only restaurant that I do is for aMexican place that is huge and one of the best in PA…awesome. I do te terra cotta tile in the entry, foyer which is large and 2 smallish dining areas and the bar area, again rather large…HSC then rinsed….awesome results 2 times a year now. We get gift certificates which we eiter use or give away to customers….Nice gift
For what its worth

Several years ago, my wife and I were at a party of one of our customers. They had chocolate fondue and we were sitting in the dining room. At some point, the customer and about half the group were in the room with us and we all heard a collective scream from the living room….thought they were joking and just a little tipsy. The owner went to investigate.
About 10 minutes later he returned saying to me ” you just got a lot of customers” of course I asked , “why”. He then told the group how someone had dripped a blob of hot chocolate fondue on the white pile carpet we had cleaned a few days before….He then explained that he went to the sink, got the sprayer and rag and went in, sprayed, blotted and wiped and voila!, gone…
I got a bunch of customers….
I know, I know…wouldn’t work again…it did that evening 3-4 years ago.
