This is so helpful, thank you! We bought one like 15 years ago and the instruction manual is now long gone. This video answered all of the questions I had about using it that I couldn't remember. Your dogs are absolutely adorable and how nice that they're not afraid of the vacuum! 🤣
Very informative. The dog made this video 10x better.
I agree with all of the comments below. I almost forgot that I had this carpet cleaner since I have had to rely on commercial clanering while I was enduring a long recuperation. After a longer time than anticipated, I got feeling so much better that I decided to see if I still had this little trusty beast. I finally found it stored away. Thankfully it was well-cleaned after last use! The only problem was that I wasn't completely certain how to use it once again. Your video was a life-saver! Very well done! Thank you! P.S. Thought I'd throw this in for dramatic effect --- had my 80th birthday in January and finally feeling great!
Great comment. Thanks for watching!
Borrowed our sister-in-law's Hoover and this has been the best video yet!
Thanks for showing.
Thank you for the compliment. Glad it was helpful.
We just moved into a rental home where the owner has one of these machines, so I appreciate the tutorial. Also noticed an orange inventory tag on the vacuum handle, so thanks from a fellow military family!
Thank you, finally I get to see someone actually use it. Just what I needed.
This video was excellent. I found the Hoover carpet steamer in my dad’s closet buried in the back. Been in there for 20 years. I took it out watch this video and have been doing my rugs ever since I have to say the water was black somewhat horrifying but every little bit helps. Thank you so much for a great editorial.
Glad it helped!
Great tutorial video! I too had forgotten how to use my carpet cleaner and this was a life saver! Even though my machine is a newer model of Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner than your's the instructions are still applicable. Thank you for the awesome video! 😀
Which model do you have?
@@browngal00 I don't have it anymore but I'll try to remember which one it was and get back to you.
@@williwoka1000 OK...thank you
Glad I could help!
Thank you, this was super easy to follow! I lost the manual so I needed a refresher on its use. 👍👍
I just found mine abandoned at an apartment garbage area. I suspect owners moved and didn't want it anymore. Still works but i had no idea how to operate it. Thanks for the tutorial! I just finished doing all my carpets!
Thanks man, just what I was looking for. Been quite a while since I've used mine, so I've forgotten how........your video refreshed my memory thanks again!
thanks for the tutorial. I have a older steamvac delux but did not use in years. i forgot how to use . your explanation was very helpful. I was able to follow everything you did very easily.
Thank you so very.much for your instructional video. I don't know where my instructions are to my Hoover carpet shampooer. This really helped me. Thank you for taking the time to upload your very informative video. Blessings.🙏
Thank you. You were very informative and helpful.
You did an outstanding job in a short time, covered everything,. Thanks
Thank you for making this video . My sister is letting me use hers and she lost her instructions .
So you just made it even easer to understand it .
Glad to help!
thanks. I haven't used mine in 8 years and had forgotten
Glad I could help
Thank you for your nice and informative vedeo on how to operate a Hoover steam vac. Great tips ..Keep your vedeo s commuting!
Thanks this was a real life saver
great video, and a good refresher for me. didn't use it in years and now i am up to date.
Thank you for this video which I was able to follow without any problems.
+Yvette Marcus Happy I could help!
Thank you! Great job at explaining how to operate!
Thank you. Happy to have helped.
Thanks for this. Ours wasn't working so I searched for a video - aha! Wasn't pulling up on the dispenser handle.
No problem 👍
😍😍😍 Im borrowing a shampooer and this video helped soooo much! I was putting entirely too much water on my carpet! 😮😮😮 Fixed it due to your video! Thank you!!!
+Seara Rhoades Happy I could help!
Vcafr0 Seriously? How old are you? Find something better to do with your time.
Thanks for actually showing how to use it
Thank you very much for your help; I did not know how to use it
Thanks, and definitely a like for the puppers lol. 🐶
Excellent video! Thank you very much.
I used my Hoover Vac a lot (unfortunately the spring in the handle broke recently), but I want to add that I go over the whole carpet again with clear water to rinse the carpet. With so much concentrate in the first wash it's a good idea, because dirt will cling to the carpet faster if not rinsed out. And, I personally use less concentrate. But good job on the video. That's exactly how I do it. Afterwards, I remove the brush from the vac and clean it for the next shampooing.
The only thing that worries me about that is the amount of water you're putting into the carpet pad by doing that.
@@mpower6234 Amazingly, the suction is so good on the Hoover that it is not a concern. I always rinse my carpets; it never seems overly wet. Practically dry by the time I'm done! Seriously, nothing to worry about... always best practice to rinse... little more work, that's all.
@@s.stephens8690 I rinse my carpets as well, I add about a cup of white vinegar to the water. Always turns out great
Good to know!
how do you clean the front of the machine and the brushes underneath?
Your video beat others by a mile..thankyou🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Good video... the only thing I. Would add is to rinse the machine with clear water on a floor after cleaning carpet. Use the flat flex tool that ce with the machine to dig out any hair left in the machine. Also, you can pull out the brush underneath the machine and rinse.
Thank you. Very helpful! I got the wide path at an estate sale, never used but no manual. I looked at other videos and yours is super easy to follow! Thanks again.
Well done, from someone who knows how to use the cleaner, and who communicates effectively.
How do you attach the hose?
And then afterwards put the other peice back on to use it without the hose again?
Thank you, I got a cleaner with no manuel, but I learned a lot.
Happy I could help!
Great video...complete and easy to understand.
Great video!
Thank you for sharing.
Very detailed video. Excellent job
Thank you!
Love your dog!

Where p’s the steam?

0:25 where can I get parts for one just like this one
Muchas GRACIAS me ayudo mucho
No problema!
Thanks for the tutorial video dude.
+Christopher Shannon Absolutely! Thanks for the comment. Hope it was helpful to you.
MPower My father has my deceased grandfather's Hoover SteamVac Plus 1200 I believe it was purchased in either 1998 or 1999 and still works today but I might need to find a 5 rotating SpinScrub brushes as a replacement. The current 5 SpinScrub still does spin but they have so much dirt which are tough to remove after previous uses. Plus I might want to tune the motor of our older SteamVac model instead of having to but a new one. But other than that, I LOVE our STEAMVAC!!!
Ghuhjjh

Thank you!! My mom is giving me this model and I do not fully know how to use it.
How long does it take to dry completely? Thanks for the video helps a lot.
Several hours usually but it ultimately depends on how much water you put down. A dehumidifier can help dry quicker.
Great video! I lost little part on the bottom of clean solution tank. So it’s leaking when I put a water. My Hoover from 2008 looks absolutely like your. I’m old lady maybe you can help me? Thanks
Unfortunately I do not have any parts. Sorry!
I was hoping you would show how to use the upholstery tools. Mine for some reason does not work so was wondering if I am doing something wrong.
What's it doing... Or not doing?
@@mpower6234 Very little suction with no power to the tool. The little tool with bristles does not spin or do anything
Ok, so no power to the tool is a suction problem. I don't have anything in the video and I think we tossed out our old scrubber a while back, but focus on the connection point at the hose. If I recall correctly, the seal there can get split and cause issues. You need to ensure you're getting a good connection there before any of the tools will work.
@@mpower6234 Thank you very much. I will dig into that.
Great best one!
I have an indoor/outdoor carpet in my large family room (not easy to move!) over a wood floor. Will this damage the wood floor while trying to clean the carpet? I have a light pad underneath, I am looking for a cleaner that will heavily suck up the water while it is cleaning. Thank you!
Definitely would not recommend using this over a wood floor. It puts down and pulls out a lot of water.
best one!
How does the Hoover carpet cleaner Is so good
It's pretty good at what it does. You can see it in the nasty water that you have to empty.
Mine is not going to the 2nd tank to bring up the dirty water.? I have Hoover 2 tank Spin scrub.
CONNIE NEAL try securing the piece you loose to add the hand attachment. Usually it has to do with suction. Hope that helps.
when you cleaning press the triger while cleaning then let the triger and go over the area that when you will get the 2nd tank of dirty happen to me
I have this older model and have not been able to get parts. My clean solution tank started to leak. I really want to find a new clean solution tank or part where the water is released with a spring. Any help please!
Try eBay perhaps
Thank you
You’re welcome!
How do I use the upholstery attachments
Those are much more challenging to do a video on. You have to hook them up to the suction in the front of the unit and then you squeeze the trigger to spray water and suck it up just like you were vacuuming.
I have this same cleaner, the brushes work but it won't take up the water from the floor. I've tried everything to fix it
Sorry to hear that Vernon
Thanx
Very explanatory
Excellent! Glad it helped you.
Make a good hug for your sweet dog
how well do these clean ? are these well built ?
Pretty decent is the answer to both. We got a lot of great use out of ours when we had more carpet. They're especially useful when you have pets or kids.
I think mine had too much suds, it was working fine the first 2 times then it stopped sucking.
They do that. Have to be careful with how much cleaner you add.
Does this soap need to be rinsed out of the carpet with clean water?
You would be putting a lot of water into the pad. The intended use of the machine is to do so without clean water.
Good video but I was disappointed by my Hoover Steamvac because despite the name, it does not heat the water or create steam of any kind! - it's a very sneaky and misleading product name!
I couldn’t get the hand held motor to work
They are tricky. Have to get a good vacuum seal at the attachment point.
The water isn't going into the second bucket ?
That means you aren’t getting the water out of the carpet. Stop using it and either grab a new one or take it to a vacuum cleaner shop to have it looked at. Run a dehumidifier in the room to absorb the moisture so your carpet doesn’t mildew.
@@Mistamike17 thank you ..im running a fan on it ..I did the whole room unfortunately.it did take all the stains out though..maybe I'll stomp some towels around.
for some reason the water is not being picked up. the bucket is empty so where is the water going. i cannot figure out what i am doing wrong. any tips. please asap. ty
You've lost suction somehow. Check to make sure everything is tight and assembled correctly. The water is going into your carpet and pad.
all I need is to no how to take apart the solution tank apart so I can put the water assembly apart to pull the lil black nozel out
Not sure that’s possible
Bissell vs hoover steam vac
Holy cow! Wear some ear protection with this thing. Yeowch.
Please warn your viewers to1) not use the dishwasher to clean the waste tank. 2) NEVER use oxy clean solutions. It will DESTROY the spray pump and other rubber seals. I was a Hoover tech during 2002 between High Tech jobs. This applies to 2002 and 2021 models.
Good tips
