Restorative Extraction Cleaning
With the Strive, Nobles has engineered the most effective restorative
extractor in the industry. The Strive’s unsurpassed performance stems
from two important innovations:
• Dual Counter-Rotating Brushes
Double agitation and counter-rotation separate more soil from both the
front and back of carpet fibers, all in one machine pass.
• Superior Vacuum Lift
More power means more dirt and debris is lifted out of the
carpet and disposed in the recovery tank.

“Cleaning with ReadySpace is better than bonneting and
our current extraction method: It’s better than bonneting
because it actually cleans and won’t void the carpet war-
ranty, and it’s better than extraction because it reduces
dry times from 6–8 hours to less than 30 minutes.”
—Roberto Quintero, V.P., TGH COMPANIES, INC., CLEANING CONTRACTOR
Outstanding Cleaning Performance,
Beautiful Results
Together, frequent ReadySpace cleanings
and periodic restorative extraction tackle the
challenges of ongoing carpet maintenance.
The results are beautifully clean carpets that
last longer.
Patented ReadySpaceTM Technology
ReadySpace technology removes soil before it becomes deeply embedded,
leaving carpets cleaner over time and making extraction easier.
AUnique soil-transfer rollers are the basis for ReadySpace. When
damp, these fabric rollers grab dirt from carpet fibers and lift it into the
machine.
BInside, sprayers rinse soil from the rollers, not the carpet.
CTwo powerful individual vacuum shoes extract the dirty water into
the recovery tank.
Because the carpet itself is never saturated, ReadySpace technology
dramatically reduces dry time. In addition, less water usage virtually
eliminates wick-back and minimizes odors and molds in the carpet.
