Frequently asked questions
How hot does the water actually get and why does it matter?
On the High setting the 2000W in-line heater pushes water toward 212 deg F at the wand. Heat dissolves detergent faster, releases more oils and soils from the fiber, and shortens drying time. Use the Low 145 deg F setting for upholstery and other delicate fabrics that should not see boiling water.
Can I really clean 2000 square feet per hour?
Field reports from professional cleaners pair this machine with an Evolution wand or RX20-class self-contained tool to hit about 2000 sq ft per hour on moderately soiled carpet. Heavily soiled carpet, narrow spaces and stairs slow the rate.
What does 200 inches of water lift do for me?
It is how hard the dual three-stage vacuums pull spent solution back up the wand. More lift means more water recovered in the same pass, which means drier carpet, faster return to service and fewer slip-and-fall callbacks.
Is this actually portable, or is it really truck-mount style?
It is a true portable. The upright dolly chassis, roller wheels and 110 lb operating weight let one person load it into a van and carry it up a flight of stairs. The dual cord design just keeps the heater and vacuums on separate circuits so older buildings do not trip a breaker.
Why two 25 ft power cords?
The heater pulls hard. Splitting the heater and the vacuum motors onto two 25-ft hospital-grade cords lets you plug into two separate 15 or 20 amp circuits in the same room, which is what most older buildings actually provide.
