Full-service location now offers Jetstream waterblast unit rentals, parts, accessories and training
LEEDS, ALA. (Aug. 1, 2008) – Federal Signal Environmental Solutions Group has announced that the FS Solutions center in Leeds, Ala., now offers Jetstream waterblast unit rentals, parts and accessories and training to better serve industrial cleaning contractors, plant customers and other industry professionals. The addition of renting Jetstream waterblasters at the Leeds center allows industrial cleaning customers to get waterblast equipment and parts locally and have equipment serviced either on site or in the field.
"The industrial cleaning landscape has changed in the past two years, and FS Solutions is changing right along with it to meet the needs of our customers," said Bryce Mulligan, rental manager for FS Solutions. "Our contractor customers are now pursuing cleaning projects outside their local geographic areas, sometimes requiring them to travel over long distances. They are also working on short-term or seasonal contracts that might require waterblast rentals. No matter where they go, or how long the project takes, our customers need a solutions provider, like FS Solutions, that can support all their waterblasting needs."
Located in the suburbs of Birmingham, Ala., the FS Solutions center stocks high performance parts and accessories for Federal Signal’s Guzzler, Vactor and Jetstream brands – as well as other makes and models of waterblasters and vacuum loaders – and also offers used equipment sales and service and refurbishing and major component rebuilding services.
To help local customers with their waterblast rental needs, the Leeds center is staffed by knowledgeable employees with significant waterblasting experience. "Renting Jetstream waterblast units allows the customer to try before they buy," Mulligan said. "We offer a rent-to-own program that allows the customer to apply a portion of the rental fees towards paying down the purchase price."
A customer looking for an extra waterblaster for a short-term project can choose from a full line of Jetstream units – from 170- to 300-horsepower units. Customers can pick up the rental units directly from the Leeds office or FS Solutions will deliver the rental unit directly to the job site.
"FS Solutions is committed to creating long-term partnerships with our customers by offering reliable and dependable products, parts, services and solutions they need to run their equipment more profitably," Mulligan said. "We also provide our customers with the training they need to develop a better understanding of pressure versus flow and to find the best nozzles for different materials and applications so they can operate their equipment safely and be more efficient on the job."

With nearly 100 years of collective experience in industrial vacuum loading, sewer and catch basin cleaning, vacuum excavation and industrial high-pressure waterblasting, FS Solutions offers unsurpassed expertise and a unique breadth of product lines and trusted brands to meet the needs of industrial cleaning contractors and other industry professionals.
