Humvee Makers Choose LANDA MPE Ruggedness
AM General Corp, manufacturer of the famous off- and on-road Humvee vehicles, owns
three of LANDA’s beefiest cold water pressure washers that deliver cleaning
power of up to 5,000 PSI. Was the LANDA MPE pressure washer worth the investment?
Replies Fred Marsh, Plant Maintenance Manager for the Hummer division in Mishawaka,
Illinois: "They must have been pretty good. I’ve bought four of them!"
It Keeps Going and Going…
There’s an Energizer Bunny in the pressure washer industry. And it’s
painted black and yellow and it just keeps on going. So says Mike O’Rourke,
of Trans-Clean in Stratford, Conn., who’s been in the cleaning industry for
nearly two decades. He’s tried to wear out several LANDA pressure washers
but they just keep on cleaning.
Examples:
Three PHW electric-powered hot-water pressure washers have been operating up to
24 hours a day for seven years at a Connecticut truck wash.
At another truck wash facility, a LANDA stationary, natural gas-fired VNG pressure
washer has been working for 11 years cleaning up to 11 hours a day, five days a
week.
Mike himself owns 14 PGDC mini-skid hot-water pressure washers that he’s used
constantly for years in his contract cleaning business. "The key," he says, "is
regular preventive maintenance."
Washing Elephants and Barns with LANDA PDE
At the Elephant Sanctuary, in Hohenwald, Tenn., 65 miles south of Nashville, they
use a LANDA PDE pressure washer for bathing elephants several times a week and cleaning
barns.
"It is absolutely wonderful," says Scott Blais, facilities director at the Tennessee
Elephant Sanctuary for endangered elephants. On hot summer afternoons, the washer
is also used to cool off the elephants. "They play in the mist," Blais said. Carol
Buckley, the sanctuary’s executive director adds: "It’s excellent. It’s
small, light. I’ve used other pressure washers that were a real chore. This
is lightweight. And the [low] noise level is great."
Mmm, Mmm Good, LANDA VNG Works Wonders at Grandma’s Kitchen
LANDA’s natural gas heated hot water pressure washers, that have become the
standard in the industry, have logged more than 55,000 hours with minimal downtime
at Grandma Shearer’s massive kitchens in Canton, Ohio. "There’s hardly
been any downtime," says Plant Engineer Tom Nolan. "They’re very reliable."
LANDA SEA, Solves Aquarium Deep Cleaning Need
Dive safety officer Pete Pehl at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA said
he tried the LANDA SEA for underwater cleaning of delicate plant life just once
and was sold. "I got in the water and did some cleaning with it and 10 minutes after
that we decided to buy two," he recalled. "They save us 10 man hours a day, easily,"
freeing up more time for underwater cleaning tasks.
