Nice carpet/floor blower!Cleaning services use these-would be good to have one at home,too!HOWEVER--you can use a Kirby in the blower mode with the long wand as a blower to dry a spot cleaned area on the rug-works well!The carpet fan is better for drying a WHOLE carpet-or even walls.There is one at the sew&Vac place here-will see if he wants to sell it.You can place the nozzle under the carpet-if its not tacked down-to dry the underside,too.
