First two minutes of the review you make a MAJOR mistake - Rinse is the water only and WASH is water/soap mix, NOT the other way around!!!!
You’re right, other people already noted it in comments. Thank you tho!
I was so confused by that thx
@Barry Shaw according to hoover you are supposed to make a pass forward and backward with the trigger pressed and a pass without
Cody Chadwick had this machines for years and never used it...so let me get this right...squeeze the black button to wash and release it to suck up the water...right 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
@@Tamme01 yes but according to hoover you are supposed to make a pass forward and backward with the trigger pressed to wash the carpet and a pass forward and backward without the trigger pressed to remove the soap or water
Found this exact machine in the garbage 8 years ago. The spinning brushes had seized up. Took that monstrosity apart and cleaned greased/oiled the bearings and, after that, this machine has been an absolute workhorse. Those brushes do NOT mess around. Lots of power there. For 8 years, it has never disappointed.
Found mine on the road, about to test it out.
@@MyHandleRocks Good luck with it! Let me know
Gene....... Sounds like you and I shop at the same place 😉🤭🤫
It's amazing what some people throw in the trash sometimes.
@@wynnssecret8882
Although this video was filmed several years ago, it is still relevant in 2021. Especially, if you have not used your Hoover Steam vac in some time! Many thanks, years later.
Still super useful in 2022! Had lots of dirt spilled on my carpet and am eternally grateful for such a clear explanation of what all the features are, and how to use it!
My pleasure
Use some (like 1 tbsp) borax dissolved in blue Dawn like 10 drops with some very warm water and you will have very clean carpets, plus the borax makes it odorless, fire resistant and repels bugs and other pests. Harmless to pets.
I will do this! Thank you ma’am
Thank you for this thorough demo. I'm wondering what's your review on the borax dawn combo? Thanks again! 💖
I have the same machine, but mine also does hard floors. Has a different brush and a squeegee attachment. I love it. Had a Royal that was supposed to be good. It was crap from day one. This one was around 1/2 the price and does an amazing job. Hadn't thought of your method of leaving the chems on and then going back. Great idea.
Very well explained. As you corrected Wash cleans with soap and water and Rinse button does water only. Thanks!!
Homie did a good job breaking it down for us. Thankyou 10,000 years later. Woohoo
Great video tutorial, Dan. Thank you for taking your time to give an easy to follow instructions and tips on how to use this wonder machine :-) We are in about to give it a shot this morning on the tile floors.
My friend has let me use his several times, and I absolutely love it. If i ever get the money, I'm going to get me one. They are around $150 on Amazon.
I got this as a Christmas gift many years ago from a very generous friend and sadly maybe used it twice because I didn't know what I was doing. Now that I've seen your video and your method and I'm also stuck at home in quarantine, I'm excited to clean three rooms of carpet. Thank you for this review and demo.
Have a great time!
I've had mine for over ten years and it is the best kick ass upright carpet and hard floor cleaner bar none!
I still love mine
Great review Dan. You are absolutely right about the cleaning solution having to sit on the carpet for a while. I use much the same method you use except that instead of using the machine to put down the solution I mix the water and cleaner in a 1 Gal garden sprayer and spray it on. it's much faster and easier. I also double rinse with a little fabric softener in the clean water because it helps to eliminate sudsing of the soap. It smells good too. The clean rinse is very important because the cleaning solution will just attract more dirt. Lastly, I have found that using Scotch Guard rug and carpet protector on it after it's clean lets me go much longer between cleanings.
Great idea with the gallon sprayer. I have recently started doing that too especially for dog mistakes in the carpet
Thank you, I have this machine since 2012 and use it maybe 5 times very clumsily I might add. Now, I get it, thanks. I will try the Odoban, never heard of it! Great video 5/2018
I'm looking for good quality and powerful wide path carpet cleaner. I watched the entire demo and it was very helpful in demonstrating how well this one works. Thank you for the very thorough demonstration of the parts and how best to use it.
Glad I could help
About to use this unit on my carpet. I am soooooo grateful for this video! (And for the comments that clarify the error in the first couple minutes.) Thank you!!!
I hope it works out good for you. Let us know.
Thanks for sharing. I just bought thr hoover scrub deluxe multi floor. Looking forward to using it. 😀
I just found all of the pcs. to my Dual V...it's been so long since I used it. I cleaned it well and will be using it today. I bought this beauty f0r 15 bucks almost brand new from a thrftstore I worked at.
My house had became disarrayed and filthy due to depression but I got it together just need to clean the carpets. YAY!
I am planning on buying this product. Thank you for your demonstration
You’re welcome
Very helpful! Thanks buddy. Had a issue with the difference of wash and rinse. I got this cleaner In great condition on a hauling job and works like a champ. Very helpful demo!! Thnak you.
If you know the best place for parts I'm missing the hose to do my stairs. Will be much appreciated.
Thanks for this!!! My aunt has one and I've been looking forward to cleaning her carpet. This helped me alot! I will tell her to get the detergent
+Tanya Parker that is great I'm happy to of helped
I used Tide laundry soap, one of them i pods. I put one in a drinking sports bottle, shook it real good til it was completely dissolved, and then poured it in the container where you put the cleaner in. It worked awesome.
It's Uber cute how the dog is showing dirt spots to assist. I used to have Cotton DE Tulear dog that hated seeing any lose paper or garbage on yard or on the floor. He would show me with his nose, then sit by it, till I pick it up. 😂 he was such a clean freak and kindest heart ever ♥
That’s sweet!
Thank you for the great review! I ordered mine today.
I hope you get many years of good use out of it. It’s a darn fine machine
Thank you for the tutorial, really informative.👍 I personally have problems around the 4th of July with my dog. He is scared so I end up having to clean after the holiday. Very helpful
Dan; my Hoover dual V extract came to life when I was working at local Hoover store in 2002. There were several new units that customer destroyed so Hoover money back, I was able to salvage one for myself (FREE).
We have been using this unit for the last 15 years. Church borrowed it and left detergent in the tank and destroyed the valve. I bought a replacement tank and all is well again.
Ok, on shampoo and pretreat. I had a 24 oz spray pretreat and about 1/4 of a 64oz shampoo. Cleaning some dirty areas from last Thanks giving. The spilled coffee and drips was pretreated then we used the shampooer. We rinsed twice so it dried with perfection over night.
Replacement Hoover brand from ecommerce site; 64 oz cost $17.95 and 2X 24oz pretreat for $19 free shipped to the house. 32 oz shampoo from local safeway was $16 +tax.
I love my .cant live with out old sally lol
We absolutely LOVE our Hoover!!! GREAT carpet clearner!!!
Sweet!
OMG - I thought that was you, my favorite pressure washing guy! I was getting ready to use my carpet cleaner after letting it sit for years in my garage. I was looking for a tutorial to refresh my memory on how to use it. As soon as you said “surfactant”, I thought that’s Dan! I love your videos so much and have learned so much from you!
Thank you Patty! Hope the video helped you
Thank y so much for replying
We had this thing nearly 2 years and the turbine & gear assembly ( PART THAT MAKES THE BRUSHES SPIN) broke took it apart found the plastic impeller split i was using and heard a SNAP. Bought 2 of them on ebay problem solved still going. The time that we had it it was used A LOT.
Thanks for the help! Totally didn’t understand how to use the damn thing until this video!
Happy to Help!
Hi Dan, we just purchased this Hoover carpet cleaner and watched your video before we use it. Thank you very much for such an informative "How To" video. Very good. You did a great job explaining how it works how it is put together and how it works.
+Kelly I. McFarline Thank You very much
I don't even have carpet but I watched and learned a lot, thanks Dan!
Thats cool. Thank you Richard
Question. My exact machine won’t spray water when I put in on the rinse setting. What parts do I check to see why it’s not spraying anymore. It does work on the wash cycle. Thanks. I also watched your video. Very helpful.
Thank you for posting this some 5 years later I forgot how to use my vac
Lol my pleasure
hi dan great video but the only question is why would you go out side with your wet socks on and go back in to clean your carpet.
Kind of silly, huh? Cause I don't really care at this point about the final product, I am just trying to expidite my demo.
Super helpful! Thank you!
Thank you
Did you ever make a video for the furniture cleaning?
I think the 2 Hoovers I have are older because I put the cleaner and water in the same container and the water always looks real dirty when it goes back in the machine.Your suction valve that cuts off suction is like mine.We had light carpet like yours one time and never could get it clean but we have that Georgia red clay and it gets tracked in too.
Mark's Reviews and RANTS gotta add a little iron-out for iron stains and dirt.
Thanks for this! I have been searching for a good carpet cleaner and came across your video; my carpet is the same color as yours (what I jokingly call "rental house/apartment beige"...it was in the house when we bought it) and liked how this machine worked. I also appreciate your 'unorthodox' cleaning method. I never thought to leave the soap to sit on the carpet--this cuts down on the necessity to go over the carpet more than once with the soap. One question--how wet does this machine leave the carpet once you're done? I don't have the ability to *not* use my living room while waiting for days for the carpet to dry...
+Stacy Harvey The carpet will be damp but I don't wait at all to live normally on it
I thought you had a Mohawk until you start crawling Lol. Thank you tho !
That's awesome 👌 I was driving to a random neighborhood 😄 😀 😁 & I found one outside and I took it with me it was o the trash and it works perfect 🥰 💞
Great!!
😆 😆 your dogs know what you’re doing maybe they want to help 😂 mine are scared of it of the noise lol. I’m
Starting to use my Hoover Max Extract Cleaner so I’m watching your video on how to use mine
Awesome! Thank You
Your awesome!!! That’s all I needed thank you sir stay safe
Thank you
I tried it... did what you said! Huge difference.... Your the dude go out and make yourself happy... you deserve the best the world has to offer!
Should you clean the machine - the internal hoses, etc. ?
Can you use the brush for couches?
Still don;t understand how to move main things back ? mine is locked, used all buttons
i got one of these last year on black friday or cyber monday sometime that weekend, and only paid 150 for it. worth every penny. i live in an apartment and the apartment managers were so surprised how clean our carpet has stayed
That is great! Thank you for the comment and I am glad to hear you are no longer a "Homeless Hobo"... LOL
Great video. Thank u.
Mine still works in 2022. I use it to detail car and kitchen floor and carpet
That’s awesome
Very useful tutorial
Thank you
This was an awesome top notch review & Demonstration! I've watched so many "How to" video's in the last few days on many different topics and this was by far the best! I do have a question for you or anyone who owns this particular cleaner.. With the word "Extract" in the model name it makes me think it's what I need. However I have OLD set in stains and I do mean OLD (I've lived here 10 years, I scrub the carpets 2-4 times a year, the stains are roughly 5 years old. Some are from when my dog was a pup, others are just from normal wear and tear (shoes, kids, ashtrays being dumped over etc) even though I've cleaned all spills/pet messes with a hand held "rug Scrubber" after blotting up the liquid (never scrubbing or rubbing it down into the carpet) The mess became a stain :/ , now it's down into the padding, and every time I scrub carpets while it's damp, it's spotless, but as soon as it starts drying they come right back and it looks like the carpets haven't been cleaned in 30 years and it's driving me freaking nuts! I've tried many many different cleaners, even ones with enzymes in it as per all the How To's say when it's dog/cat messes. But nothing is working this carpet is older than 10 years old, Landlord refuses to replace it even though they are supposed to replace it like every 7 years
Will this machine get down far enough down under the carpet backing into the padding and pull up the stains and get rid of them once and for all???
I have the same issues and the answer is no. I even had a pro carpet cleaner hit the area hard with steam and their super powerful sucker and still the big dark stains return. It’s almost like the stain is the true color and I washed away the die that lightened the carpet’s color.
Do you suppose to have the machine on wash or rinse to suck up the water so it can dry I'm confused
I am having issues with it not dispensing water. Help!
When do you press the button to pull up the dirt
After I lay down all the chemicals. Then I go to the beginning and pull the unit backwards sucking up the dirty chems.
Can you discuss what happens when the trigger is not engaged? Does it then work just like a regular vacuum? Do the scrubbers still rotate when the trigger is not engaged?
I have not personally used this machine but Bissells. Unless you have one of the Smart Wash systems the machine only puts down solution or water, depending on settings, when the trigger is squeezed. When not squeezed it is sucking up or vacuuming up water. You could say it is working like a regular vacuum but you can't use these to just vacuum as they don't have the filtration to trap the dirt and the suction pathways are smaller and can get clogged. From my understanding of the mechanics of these machines the brushes always run.
Hello. I just got this cleaner and did a small room and am very happy so far. I did your method versus what I would normally do and like it but I just want to make sure I'm using the modes correctly. Set it to "wash", depress trigger, move forward, move over and go backward and repeat. Do you let the solution sit and work for a set amount of time then go back over everything without depressing the trigger? Is rinse only different from wash because it is just pure water?
Yes let it dwell as you move across the room and then suck it up sparingly using rinse water as needed. The important part is dwell time and good suck-removal of the solution and dirt
@@DansVlog and it will suction up the water/solution on it's own as you pull it backwards without depressing the button? Suction is automatic, regardless of mode?
Yes. It will suck all of the water out of the carpet without squeezing the trigger. If you squeeze the trigger you are spraying water or if you have it on the wash selection then it is spraying water and soap. As long as the machine is plugged in and turned on it is sucking water
@@DansVlog ok, thank you very much and great video!
How do I clip the brushes in at the bottom... all clips r in tact however the brushes keep dropping down
I don't believe the brushes are adjustable. Not like a vacuum. The brushes on these machines rest on the carpet with gravity
Please do a video on how to remove parts and clean them. I find that it's very hard to remove hair from the nozzle (the thin, clear plastic "face"). Hair gets stuck at the bottom where the long slit is. There's no way to separate the top and bottom. Sure, running water through the hose hole helps. But A LOT of hair still gets stuck in the corners and in the plastic tabs along the front of the slit opening. Have to get in there with tweezers and it's a pain.
Also, the top tank doesn't always "let you know" when it's secure. So it will pop out and smash on the floor. The tanks handle broke when this happened to me (and others on Amazon), and Hoover can't replace the part. Duck tape can help. Anyway, one must remember to snap the handle up into the lock position VERY WELL. If it's just kinda locked in, it will pop out and crash onto the floor.
Anyway, again. It would be good if you could do a video of how to remove parts for cleaning. I did not find it intuitive. Seems to be a lot of yanking on parts till they pop off.
(Mine also leaks). If you can recommend a better carpet cleaner please do.
Sorry, @3.17 you said is this correct ?
I said It backwards, sorry. Wash is water AND soap, rinse is only clean water
Great demo however I am still confused about how to get the machine settings to ONLY suck up the excess water in rug after rinsing. I only have two settings. Wash-auto rinse or rinse. Which should it put to when only a using up water? Thanks
The machine is always sucking up moisture. It will not matter what you set it to. Just don’t squeeze the trigger on the handle.
@@DansVlog If they have one of the Smart Wash machines you don't have as much control as you do with this machine.
Wouldnt it be wash with the soap and rinse without the soap?
Yes you are exactly right. Sometimes my mouth moves before my brain lol
@@DansVlog gold Vacuum cleaners
My goodness. Thankfully my head seems to be on point. I caught that and had to verify
That's what I was wondering although I don't smell the chemicals so I wonder if something is blocked. Just bought one from someone, a used one. It's a V2, so a little different but same basic thing
Dan, thank you! I wish I knew about you when I bought this machine 2 yrs ago used it twice because I didn't know what I was doing, paid carpet cleaners to do the job! :~(( I now have the time to live! :~). Discovered you! How do I get the demo on how to use the hose with the brush? please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Why didn't you read the owner's manual?
Just bought a used Hoover SteamVac V2 that didn’t have a user guide and, although I located one online I’m a visual learner so coming across your video that not only allowed me to watch & learn but gave me the understanding of surfactants along with your tip of applying the wash and let it sit was much appreciated!
Question: Once the first step of applying wash of water & carpet cleaning solution and, letting it sit is completed and, now you’re ready to go over the carpet (step 2) to extract the dirt/grime & dirty wash water out of the carpet and/or even once you’ve moved on to step 3 .. the rinsing with clean water only & extraction do you have any thoughts or advice whether to leave the rotating scrub brushes on or off as this steamvac has scrub brushes on or off switch ? Thanks!
Leave the brushes on so the fibers get agitated and loosens up the dirt as the vac sucks it up
@@DansVlog thanks so much Dan for the advice as well for taking the time to explain the importance of leaving the rotating brushes on as it gave me a better understanding of why I should leave them on.
Also... When you are going forward the button is in the wash position?
Wash will put down soap and rinse will put down water only when the trigger is pulled.
Can you use this on tile floors
+Laura Saylor Yes you can
this machine seems better than the rug doctor machine you rent from the stores. I have been happy with the rug doctor machine and solutions but I might buy one of these
Depends on which model. The large one is great for cleaning apartments after moving out. The Hoover dual V max extract works way better than the Bissel from my next door neighbor.
If anyone can answer this .....
I purchased carpet cleaning concentrate from where they rent the machines. It states 1/2 cup to 1 gallon water. The clean water carrier of the hoover machine is about one gallon. But the detergent container seems to hold about 2 cups, so my 1/2 cup only fills it partway. Do I fill it up the rest of the way with water, or do I fill it completely with concentrate, or .....? TY
I would fill it with the cleaner and let the machine do the mixing
Depends on your machine. Some machines have a dedicated solution tank that you put the concentrate into such as this machine. Other you have to mix it and put it into one clean water tank. To best answer your question knowing what machine you have would help.
Very nice. I didn't realize these machines were so affordable. Thank you.
I have a Hoover Model F7452900 very similar to the one you have here. I find it impossible to load the water/shampoo container on the machine without ending up with a puddle of water and shampoo on the floor. So common that I load the machine in the kitchen that has a vinyl floor, so the puddle is easier to clean up. Putting the reservoir on the machine isn't rocket science but it happens every time. Very frustrating. Enough so I'm considering tossing the machine and getting something from another manufacturer. Never have I loaded it and not having to clean up a good size puddle of both detergent and water. Oh, and the detergent is extra fun because it makes a very sticky mess.
You said that backward bud, I have the exact model. Just got done using it. Wash mixes solution and water and rinse is only water.
Dan I need your help. This max extract dual v just started smelling like burnt rubber and then it shut off and will not come back on. It’s not mine, and I have to give it back.
You jammed up the roller and the belt is spinning and causing the burning smell. You will have to find out what wrapped up the roller and free it.
I will take a look and fix the roller. Hoping the belt isn’t broken. So I go into where the scrubbers are on the bottom? And free roller of hair, etc?
Maybe! It can be anything. A small toy, hair, a sock... you have to innvestigate it
So it's not necessary to fill it with hot water?
I mean, if the house is air-conditioned, the water is going to be cool water in about 10 minutes anyways so I don’t use hot water
I know you said you have a Bissell but do you still have this Hoover?
I do not still have the Hoover. I think a belt broke on it and I just decided to get another brand entirely and try it out. I have been impressed with the Bissell
Tx much!!
I have 2 of the hoovers . 1 is newer . but you got the rinse backwards , Rinse is water only , wash is solution and water . just like a washing machine. I love mine so i got 2 . with 6 tiny dogs my rugs need it . I also noticed using bissell solution in the hoover works better than the hoover solution does .
Oh SNAP! I said it backwards!!!??? Thank you for clarifying that. I know that is right (the way you said it lol)
I got 2 hoovers the exact same model my water and chemicals go in the same tank.I got one of the cleaners years after I bought one from my sister and brother in law that moved.
Dan's Vlog Following your instructions, I just did my bedroom rug. It’s still very dirty. All this work and I just learned I should have pushed the WASH button, not RINSE button.
What town is your accent from? Midwest somewhere? Great video, thanks.
I lived seven years in the northeast 20 years in South Florida a couple years in the northwest a couple years in Germany and 15 years in Savannah Georgia so I am a mix of all different accents
Happy Halloween everyone
Also a little mistake not a big one but when you do clean water make sure you use hot water for better results.
I agree completely! Good comment, thank you
I can't get the clean water tank to lock into place. I was hoping there would be more detail, sigh.
Does the machine leak at all it looks like the older one I had then the pump went out after like five years or so and I got a new blue Hoover and it was joke ass peace of shit so I through it out ?
+lincoln Continental Leak? No but if you finish up and let it sit it will drain some bit not leak from the tank
When the first came out 2002, Hoover had birthing problems. I was working as a tech at Hoover. I took in several destroyed by customers and made one for myself.
I recently replaced the detergent/clean water tank after 15 years. Works like new.
BTW, empty and rinse the detergent tank. The soap reacts with the rubber valve and destroys it. WARNING: Don't use detergent with Oxyclean in it!!
Do you use hot water? Or doesn't matter.
My Bissel uses hot water. I never used hot water in this machine. I am sure you can use hot from the tap with much success
@@DansVlog I just bought the Bissel TurboClean. The Hoover Max Extract really annoyed me. 1. The tanks were a hassle to attach/remove. 2. It leaked at front. 3. If not careful to fully click in top tank, it would fall off and lever easily broke on impact. 4. Some parts could not be removed/opened to clean/maintain (hair forever trapped inside). I get the feeling you threw yours away too.
I did not have bad experiences with mine but yes I did replace it after I burned up the motor when I ran it with the belt jammed up like an idiot
how is the power suction ? how long does it take for the carpet to dry? Thanks
Ed Kennedy The carpet is only slightly damp when finished,. I walk around in socks immediately without getting soaked. In a few hours it's all clean and just about totally dry
1 more thing your 2 dogs i saw in the video are they both still alive this video was posted in 2016 so 4 years ago.
I still have the dogs and I have a new cleaner (Bissel)
Do you need to remove the chemical and clean water container when not in use? I left mine over night and it was almost completely empty today.
I always drain and wash the dirty water tub. It is a good idea to Remove the clean water tank because it might leak out through the seals and onto your floor
It wasn't in my floor though. I'm thinking it ran into the bottom of the machine where it mixes maybe.
Dan, I just purchased this particular carpet cleaner and it seems to put out a lot of water. I am not getting as much water up as I am putting into the carpet. I am sure I am doing something wrong but will know in the morning how clean and how dry it is.
+Rita Gray hi Rita, thank you for the comment. I don't want to question your method or your ability to use a carpet cleaner so please don't take this in the wrong way… Is it possible you're moving to slowly when applying the liquid and moving too fast when attempting to suck it up? That is truly all that I can think of.
Well Dan, the carpet is very clean and most of it is dry so I am relieved. I did try the method you showed on the video and I do believe it made a difference in how clean the carpet came out so thank you.
I see you have a couple good carpet job inspectors there with you,, LOL.
Everyone can do it the way it works for them, hoover suggests going back and in one section which is how I do it ,,, carpet gets clean even though there are long spells between cleaning.
did you use rinse or wash first
Koji Potter I wash first so the Chems soak in and lift the dirt then I rinse and remove.
Hey Dan... You need that you made a big mistake at the beginning of the video. You "should" change this video.... Take it down and shoot a new version, or shoot a new part and replace it.
Before you get angry and dismiss me as a B.S. control freak, just know that I am not coming from that place. This is an excellent video, and you, with the exception of the MAJOR error have explained things very well. That error like like an out of tune guitar in an excellent song being played by excellent band.
He could also just do one of two things. Shoot a new intro correcting his mistake or add a text on the screen correction.
They work amazing but expect leaking to an extent.
Yes. They definitely do that. I think all brands leak if left sitting. It’s a flaw that sux!
Well I still see stains after your process.... it is better than it was though.
Just looking at the nasty water that gets collected is impressive
So this machine does NOT have a scrub-only function , the vac is running constantly ???.... AND i don't know whats in your cleaning solution but i know what's in mine and i would NOT want it on my feet !!!!
My shampoo won't suck up water
That sucks… pun intended
I have six parakeets so I don't really have this problem with them going on the carpet like the dog
Lol my parakeets would spray shit on the walls!!
I have had this model for five years and have been very satisfied, although the nozzle is a bitch to clean!!
That being said, I squeeze the trigger and go forward AND backward applying cleaning solution. Then release trigger and go forward/backward with suction only. The dirty water pours into the recovery tank.
Usually one time will do the trick.
This is the method outlined in the Owner's Manual.
cool
Those spots are not gone. They just spreaded wider all over your carpet.
I like your method, however you do not show what you are doing with the button at the top of the vacuum. I'm still very confused at when you push the damn button and when you do not.
Kathy Murphy Lol I push the trigger only going forward so the cleaning chemicals have a chance to work and I move the machine over and quickly back up trying to avoid what I just put down. Then I squeeze and hold trigger and move along forward again. Sorry for the confusion
Thank you for the answer. I appreciate your quick reply! So how do you pick up exess rinse water? Thanks a lot.
Kathy Murphy Once I cover the entire room by going forward and squeezing the trigger I then go back to the beginning where I first laid down the detergents and I suck it all up. As far as rinsing, I may have rinsed in this vid but now I just lay down the detergent and then suck it up and walk away. Does a great job and doesn’t feel icky afterwards
You only squeeze the trigger to use the soap and rinse, you release the trigger only to vacuum. For best results, vacuum works better going backwards. go slow. My mother in law lives with us,she has 2 doggy mutts. She keeps bath tows on floor, me thinking they were to keep the rug clean, her and my wife went on a cruise, i stayed home to clean house,when I got to her room just to vacuum,thinking that"s all I was going to do,removed towels and see piss and crap stains on my carpet. So my first time using it,thanks to this video,its awesome. this machine does wonders. Mother in Law is going to get an ear full.
Oh,and I forgot to mention,when you rinse,don't forget to remove the soap from the machine,and remember,you only squeeze the trigger to release the liquid/water. release release trigger to vacuum only.
This will never even remotely come close to getting the carpets clean like a proper professional cleaning will. Notice I say the word proper professional cleaning. Its a multi step process that includes better chemistry, better machines and better agitation as well as a hot water rinse with much stronger pull to get everything out, or much more out.
Very true
There should be more dirty water in the dirty tank after you did all that extraction. You are letting that cleaning solution soak into the carpet, not good.
From 21:33. to 21:50. Funny.
