After a career in the energy industry, Bob Johnson is looking forward to a future that is a little greener and potentially a lot more profitable, joining the emerging hydrogen carbon cleaning brand <a href="https://www.hhocarboncleansystems.com/franchise/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=an-energy-industry-veteran-becomes-hho-carbon-cleaning-systems-first-franchisee-2715139" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">HHO Carbon Clean Systems</a> as its very first franchisee.Based in Metropolis, Illinois, <a href="https://1851franchise.com/hhocarboncleansystems/hho-carbon-clean-systems-increases-power-and-performance-of-your-engine-2714610#franchisor">HHO Carbon Clean Systems has introduced a lucrative solution for carbon buildup to automobile and motorcycle owners in the U.S. </a>The brand’s unique value lies in its innovative carbon cleaning process, which uses water and hydrogen gas to remove buildup from any gas, diesel or other internal combustion engine. This method has already been established as a cost-effective way to reduce carbon emissions and increase fuel efficiency in countries around the world, but HHO is among the very first companies to bring hydrogen carbon cleaning to American auto owners.After watching the coal industry decline as so many companies faced the choice of whether to retrofit existing facilities or switch to green energy alternatives, Johnson knew he needed to do the same. Now, he’s excited to be a part of a brand that’s taking the initiative to bring both private auto owners and fleet operators an environmentally friendly solution&nbsp; to carbon buildup on vital engine components, which is one of the most persistent and costly frustrations in the automotive industry.“It’s a great brand that I really believe in, so being the first franchisee is exciting,” Johnson said. “There’s nothing else in the United States that offers this environmentally friendly service, and after working in coal for so long, it feels like a momentous leap forward to open up a business like this.”But Johnson’s decision to franchise with HHO Carbon Clean System was motivated by more than just the initiative to go green. As is the case in many small towns, HHO’s founder, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jared-english-2ba3801b6/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=an-energy-industry-veteran-becomes-hho-carbon-cleaning-systems-first-franchisee-2715139" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jared English</a>, and its first franchise have long been acquainted with one another. Having children of similar ages, attending the same community functions and participating in local youth sports leagues has allowed for trust and familiarity over the years. And that goes without mentioning that Johnson has been a long time customer at English’s automotive shop, A-1 Automotive, where he has seen English’s high quality of work and was eager to have his own vehicle undergo hydrogen carbon cleaning services.&nbsp;Because Johnson has&nbsp; seen firsthand the benefits of hydrogen carbon cleaning and has a close connection with English, it made him even more confident in the brand.“Jared had already been servicing my vehicles for years,” he said. “It’s awesome, I can go in there and they’ll drop everything for me and answer all my questions.”Johnson says he is particularly excited to introduce a solution to his community that will not only help customers reduce their carbon footprint, but also save them money. By removing carbon buildup, HHO Carbon Clean Systems ensures engines are operating at their maximum fuel efficiency, reducing costs for both fuel and repairs.“I hope that by using our services, customers are able to save money to buy another vehicle for their family or even expand their own business,” he said. “No other company in the area offers this type of service, and I think that people here will be excited to advertise that they’re using it and that they’re going eco-friendly.”
