- In todays video I will show you the easiest way to convert you shop vac in to an extractor to clean carpets and upholstery! You can easily piece this together using the list of items i lay out... BUT it is much easier and actually cheaper to buy the RipClean Better Extractor Kit. I was very surprised when i added up the total to build the kit myself only to find out that the ready to use kit from Rip Clean was actually slightly cheaper. Converting your shop vac in to an extractor is an amazing way to get professional results on a budget. I personally use a Mytee Lite 8070 Heated extractor for my professional detailing business. But at over $1300 it doesn't make sense for many people to spend that much. This extractor kit that allows you to use your shop vac gets amazing results at a fraction of the price... ENJOY!!

Appreciate you mentioning the part of caring the proper filter I’ve been watching a lot of videos because I’ve been looking to get into the business and haven’t seen anyone be as detailed with tools on how to use and how to properly assemble for best use appreciate it 1000% keep up the videos
Love your channel josh. Your reviews of different products and tools are honest and to the point. Thank you.
Josh, as a driveway detailer this attachment is exactly what I'm looking for! Fantastic video.
Thank you.
Shine on you crazy diamond!
Dude I seriously just bought the kit with the 50ft hose today, mainly to clean a dirty sofa and eventually with the cars, thanks for sharing a really good video...
josh you the man.. i have this on my list for a while now.. haven't made the purchase just waiting on your video review … thanks you so much for your help dude.. awesome content
Glad I could help!
Very informative! Thank you! I’ll come back once I quit my day job to go detail full time to thank you again!
I extract every car I detail...because every car I detail is my wife's van.
Haha! Same for me there. It’s not so much my wife, but my kids
@imjoshv I have 3 little kids and they just trash that thing. I never get to clean my cars because anytime I have time to clean something, it is that black hole of stuff.
@@pkt1213 I don’t have kids but I feel. My car I keep daily clean even while work a maintenance job , then my lady car what does she do I don’t even know then her moms car I’m like 🤔🤔🤔 what do you people do in your cars to get this dirty and I’m the one that works around grease and everything 😭
Don't feed kids in van, meals are eaten at table.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really good info. You got me wanting to try this as a winter side hustle. I didn't know that the sprayer was just tap pressure. You make good videos!
Thanks!
Same, I thought it needed something more, and I also assumed that solution is injected and not just water. Now if I could make this a steam not just water, that would be great. Thanks @imjoshtv!
Hands down the best set up video on the tube of you!
I bought the kit based on your enthusiastic review. Subscribed!
Thanks man, this DIY guide helped me so much w/ my current Uber biz for when ppl leave a mess in the back lol
josh thank you for putting this together best investment I've made for my mobile detail business
Just the video I was waiting for. I built out the extractor system with the Mytee head and I'm waiting for the rip extractor to come next week. Great video !!
Your gonna love it I run it with the mytee
@@frankyfreedomsp8974 I'm looking forward to it!!
Nice 👍
Hey Josh love the videos man have really made me more comfortable with the stuff I’m doing, I’m getting ready to order the ripclean extractor kit. I’ve always just did basic detailing but now I think I’m going to start expanding my options and see where it goes
Thank you for this video. This the option for me. I’m a beginner not a professional. Excellent mod imo. If you already have a shop vac this to me seems the most cost effective option over paying up to $200 for a separate portable extractor with less suction.
Another helpful video I can't wait for spring so I can use these great hacks
So dam cool and great way for detailers on a budget or just starting out in fact it may be more comfortable for some I love it man!! Great stuff, I will be building me one !!!
Great video Josh! Thank you! A good defoamer will work right if you put a cap full inside the unit...just in case 🤔
Awesome video! I have the VacMaster and very impressed with it. That kit is a solid option. 👍
I agree but the vacmaster is a fantastic value!
I just made a system with this vac but with a full size carpet wand and my shower head for hot water. Works GREAT!
What connector did you use from wet vac hose to the full size carpet wand? Did you get the kit he’s talking about? Does that connector fit on a full size wand?
This guy has all the tips and tricks. Thanks
Happy to help!
Thanks for this. I'd use this for home carpet spot cleaning.
FYI Suggestion: For your tank set-up you mentioned, and having not much pressure/flow. Perhaps try to parasite some of the shop vac exhaust air with hose. Run this into the top/lid of your tank. You'll want to play with air flow and/or some sort of vent on the tank so you don't have excess pressure build up and blow up your tank. Maybe a petcock pressure valve that vents at an appropriate psi. Or look into an rv water line pressure tank. They likely have a built in pressure release.
Thank you 😊 much appreciated advice
Been looking for this kind of setup. Thanks so much for this video! Subbed!
You forget one thing Josh! Get yourself a portable hot water tank connect it to the water in then connect that extractor solution hose to the portable hot water tank and Boom 💥 hot water.... I've been doing that for years gave that a try man!!!!
Sweet ill check that out
Which portable hot water tank do you use for this? I would be interested in getting one for my business.
where do you get one ?
Quick pro tip flip your Velcro’s over so they’re not fuzzy side out and picking up dirt left n right. Rubber bands are also a good option.
That's a really good idea .looks like that kit is great . I been thinking about purchasing aqua pro vac. But I will most def check that out . Thanks for great information an tips
Awesome video! Appreciate you doing all these videos
Thanks!!
Looks like a great product!! I’m definitely looking at getting one of these

Just to enhance the information you are providing Josh, what you are looking for when choosing a vac for extraction is the Water Lift spec - this is measured in Inches, the higher the value, the better results you will get when pulling from the surface whether smooth or carpet. CFMs are important, but in relation to the motors actual pulling power - focus on water lift. Hope this helps anyone out.
cfm and water lift do different things,cmf is basically how the vacuum allows your tool to grab the carpet/upholstery ,then the lift is the actual sucking up the water.
Any vacuum recommendations?
yes, Advance is good, WAP/Alto works well. Stick with machines that have multi stage motors with bypass function. do not go with direct horsepower spec brands like rigid, shop vac etc.
not really, cfm is volume of air based on area of suction squared to radius of the hose diameter. tool grab isn't even a term used in the real world.
@@Mainbusfail i was trying to make it simple. its totally different. i have had a extractor with 182 inches of lift and one with the same lift but 240 cfm. one is capable of about 15 feet of hose and one at about 200 feet. cfm allows the head of the tool pull/lock on/grab on fibers or fabric, then lift comes into play.
Thank you for your posts. Just one thing I think the water coupler need a rubber protector or shrink round the melt coupler. Just an idea so you that way you would not scratch interior parts
Just a tip from a professional carpet and upholstery cleaner. Buy an internal jet upholstery tool. The external jet tool causes over wetting and you’ll get a lot of over spray. Where as with an internal jet all the water is enclosed inside the hand tool. Great video though man
Can u send me a link please. To a great internal one. Was about to buy this one but I read your comment
@@OfficialXPage yes hold on
@@rickyshaw3036 well
@@DAdelson just search internal jet upholstery tool it’s simple
Can u help me not finding the tool
Just bought mine with your link thanks I was looking for a video about this
Tbh I just got a green scrub thing. A shop vac and two liters of water with laundry soap/bleach/dishsoap. And I soaked the interior and scrubbed then vacuumed it. It is like I used a steam cleaner. Perfectly clean no stain seats. I carefully filled the cup holders with water and scrubbed then sucked it up with the vaccum. Pretty impressed.
I already have this done, it's awesome
Awesome!
New sub here... answered all the questions I had in one video. Thanks.
Just ordered my rip clean kit can’t wait for it ‼️
Did you get it on time
That's awesome. Thanks Josh.
You bet!
Just got mine rip clean kit looking forward to using it I got the 4 gallon with the 5hp motor. I also order the carpet cleaner from them too.
Great video🙌Thank you for sharing!
I got the same set up and love it
Nice
Back in the day when I was cleaning carpets, I had an adapter that would connect to the kitchen sink, and use hot water, man that would clean anything.
I'm gonna definitely give this a try this
pretty good option!
Thanks. Never had to use a carpet extractor in my car, but I'll try it on my rugs in the house.
Yea they even have a hose adapter that can work with most in home sink faucets!
@@imjoshv that's cool!
This was very informative! Thanks:) I'm thinking if I connect to the kitchen faucet I could get hot water during the extraction.
Hey Josh, kudos my detailing brother. 1/15/22 Home depot is running a web special on their 6 h.p. vacuum's and they are tossing in a car detail kit. i.e. hose crevice tool ect. Another thought on the water hook up, put an in line valve with a hose bib on the HOT side coming from your water heater...Bingo. If you have a sink in your garage or the hot water heater is parked in the back corner something real easy to pull off. Thanks again for the primo content
Jumped on that deal from HD...Rigid 14 gal 6HP vacuum and car kit for $113!!!
Another one *DJ Khaled voice*
Another great video Josh. Will definitely look into getting this. Birthday is in 3 months! Have to hint at this to the wife lol
Great video. 👍
Nice kit josh I’m going to check it out your last video got some new filters and ordered the pool filters thanks
Awesome! Those pool socks make things so much easier!
Nicely done
Hi Josh. Great video and thanks for all of the research and info that you've shared. Question...I mistakenly left my passenger rear windows partially down and it rained. As a result, part of my back seat and the back of my passenger seat got wet. Should I extract the water or let it air dry? Please advise.
I’m making one tomorrow!!
Love the video, thank you!
You can also comnect the waterline to your pressure washer via quick connect. Leave pressure washer off of course but use the running water from there. Just switch to pressure washer from there or vice versa
Thanks for sharing I didn’t know anything like this existed.
You bet!
Love this video i have one question though can i use hot water
Man, what a great video. Talk about your "poor man's" extractor. This is it, and I have a possible idea of what you might be able to do to get some hot water going here. On my water heater, there is a spicket, just like a garden hose spicket. I'm wondering if I couldn't hook up the female part of the hose to that so you could have hot water. Of course, depending on how big your water heater is, you could run out of hot, hot water, but you'd still have water that's in the process of heating up. Just an idea here. Thanks again for the very informative video. Marc Trainor
Great review video
Thanks for sharing this! I just might have to get one. Since most water heaters may be in the garage and have a hose connection, that could be a possibility for a hot water source. May need to turn the temperature down on the water heater though.
Great idea!
I was thinking the same thing however I would probably figure out some sort of prefilter because of the sediment that collects at the bottom of water heaters. If it were me...I would tap in to the line on the top of the water heater and this would eliminate the sediment issue...you also would want to make sure the rating on the hose could handle the heat because coming straight off the water heater is going to be much hotter than say at your kitchen sink due to the thermal loss from the distance of the faucet to the heater.
Hauuu, very nice 👌, good idea, thanks a lot.
Nice setup 🎉
Thanks
Thanks for this video bro
I really don’t need this but now I need it 🤣
Awesome video
Great vid! Will this kit attach to the Rigid Pro Pack Wet Dry Vacuum you reviewed in the past?
Great video 👍
Detailed and talks quick !! Followed
Good video brother
Been watching you for a bit now planning on doing detailing sometime soon. I have Been debating if I'd buy the vac Master pro or this Ridgid extractor..
Thanks for this! Can we buy the vacmaster beast 5.5 & use all of these same tools to do this?
Can you attach the shop vac to a Mytee wand and just clean carpet with it?
Good tip!
Thanks!
Back in the day we would use the short pressure washing wand with a lower pressure nozzle. Point the nozzle toward the shop vac hose and basically pressure wash the dirt into the vacuum. 🤣😂🤣 if you were good with the angle it wouldn't soak the carpet or seat and would dry in a couple hours.
hi Josh, could you please explain, how does it fit Ego vacuum? especially the suction part (detergent can be applied from separate bottle eventually)
Hey Josh how are you liking that Blower/Vac? Im looking at either the 4 gallon or the 16 gallon to detail and Extract when needed.
Great info.. for hot water instead of using a water spigot use a sink faucet coulpler and hook it up to hot water.. when available..
You can also get a hose sock to put over the whole hose setup.
I need that exact setup! Is there a kit ready to go to purchase from a site? Thanks man
Another option over the velcro or zip ties is using a hose sleeve/sock over both hoses at once, then there's no issues of snagging.
I bought that aqua pro vac. No heat but damn good results. Please review one!!!
I was thinking about that one but this is cheaper, is it actually worth the price?
Do I also need to clean out the hose (gray vacuum hose) after each time I use it to extract? Or does that already get cleaned by the water being sucked through to the vacuum?
I put a setup together like this using 1/4" air line hose like you did.
I wanna hook it directly to the hot water spigot..
Will the hose work with hot water?
I just bought the w4080. Come with a cool build in detachable blower/vac
Question- you think I can put a quick female connect adapter to the end water source hose, to be able to connect to my Ryobi 1600 electric pressure washer ? Or is it too much pressure for the sprayer ? Also is there such connector/adapter ?
Water qualities differ. Is there any advantage to placing a water filter between the faucet and the hose?
I have a regular DeWalt vac...will the hose attachment fit? Or does it fit into your Stealth Sonic? Thanks
What wet/dry vac would pair best with the Ripclean? Most suction, but still compact.
I have been using the vacmaster based on a previous video you’ve made and I enjoy it. I am curious as to how that new extractor head compares to the old crescent moon shaped one that could be a little cumbersome in smaller areas. Any experience with the newer model?
I’ve had issues with the spray pattern on mine. Suction is decent but can’t seem to get enough water to spray
@@tinorodriguez89are you talking about the vacmaster or the extractor ?
I can't decide between a 5 house and 6 hp ridged shop vac. Just ordered the rip clean kit. Would a 6 hp ridged be too much suction when vacuuming?
When you just want to vacuum. Do you have to swap out the filter or can you use the vacuum with the wet filter?
What if u don’t want water ? I got a good steamer and spray method I just want get it up faster with a wider suction ?
If you have a utility sink in your garage you can hook the hose to that for hot water.
Do you think it would work with the 4.5 gallon 5 hp ridgid shop vac? The box one
Can you tell me what is the connector you use for the garden hose to the pressure washer hose?
Do you need the water injection jet or can you just get the extractor tip for your vac and use your APC and agitate it and just extract it with just the extractor tip and vac ?
Man u r the best
the hose as you found it versus the orange one they sell at home depot?
Josh, I have a hot water connection in my garage. I want to use my shop vac on the second floor of my home. I need to use a 100 foot pressure hose. How do I connect a 100 foot 1/4” pressure hose from my shop vac to the hot water 3/4” connection in my garage? Is there a quick connect adapter option?
Wut up josh ! So I got that rigid vacuum but does the filter need to be changed for water or just take it out cause the filter will get brittle after a while rite ?
