Kaivac Awarded New Patent For Kaisump Machine

Kaivac, inventors of the No-Touch Cleaning™ system, has been awarded a U.S. Patent – USPN 7,316,049 – for their KaiSump™ system.

The KaiSump is used primarily to convert a No-Touch Cleaning machine into a ‘continuous’ disaster and flood recovery system,” said Matt Morrison, communications manager for Kaivac.

For instance, in a flood situation, once the KaiSump discharge line is secured to an acceptable drain (e.g. sink, toilet, outside, etc.), the machine provides a continuous pump-out operation that saves critical time during flood recovery and also helps reduce labour costs and minimize building damage.

After the water is removed, the No-Touch Cleaning system can be used for final clean-up, minimizing the worker’s exposure to bacterial contamination.

“This kind of capability is typically found only in expensive single-purpose machines,” Morrison said. “We’re delivering it as an inexpensive add-on to our No-Touch Cleaning™ systems as just one more way we help our customers stretch their maintenance dollars.”

Morrison said that the machine is so effective that some people have even used it to empty swimming pools.

“We’re very proud of our inventions and our contribution to the professional cleaning industry,” Morrison said. “The KaiSump reflects our company’s ongoing commitment to our industry and helping its members meet their cleaning challenges.”
