The Jet Stream Grill, Part 1: CRI SOA Success Story

Jet Stream GrillAnother CRI Seal of Approval Success Story: Carpet Cleaning Improves the Atmosphere at the Jet Stream Grill

Case # 3 Jet Stream Grill
This story is so good we are breaking it into two parts. This is part 1.

I have talked a lot on this blog about the importance of carpet cleaning and maintenance, but up until now, my direct experience of carpet cleaning has been limited to having the carpet at my house cleaned by a Dalton-area Seal of Approval Service Provider, and having the carpets cleaned at my office in the CRI building. I always know when the cleaners have been there because they leave extractor wand marks in the carpet that look like rows of Christmas trees. But I rarely see the cleaning crew themselves because they come at night, like elves.

That all changed this past Sunday, when I got up close and personal with some of the dirtiest carpet I have ever seen. I went on location with a film crew and an SOA-certified cleaning crew to make a video showing how, even in the worst situations, Seal of Approval products and equipment perform beautifully.

Our destination was the Jet Stream Grill, a restaurant located in Chattanooga, Tennessee that is owned by Chattanooga TV meteorologist Neal Pascal and his wife, Linda.

Here’s a preview of the video we shot. [Subscribers, please click on this link to watch the short video previewing Carpet Cleaned at Jet Stream Grill.]

And, here's the nitty gritty of what enabled us to create this success story.

Using this equipment:

15” Whittaker Lomac® Agitator
2-gallon manual pump sprayer
Windsor Sensor XP 15 Commercial vacuum

At these settings:
  • Water temperature 180° F
  • Water pressure 450 psi
  • Vacuum pressure 350 cfm at the carpet face
  • Water used 120 gallons

And these cleaning products : Shaw’s R2X Carpet and Rug Stain and Spot Remover and ForceField SoilBlaster Pro PreSpray (approximately 3 gallons).

    There's lots more coming soon about the day and the fantastic camera crew we worked with. More pictures, too. All in Part 2.

    What’s Your Story?

    Do you have a Seal of Approval success story? If so, James Beach and I would love to hear from you.
