Posted on Sep 19, 2009

Since the last use of my new ProHeat X2 carpet

Since the last use of my new Bissell ProHeat X2 carpet cleaner, about 2 weeks ago, the suction pulling up cleaning water is about half of normal. What should I do or check? Shay

Check the lint filter. It is located in the top clear plastic section (the one with the dial to switch from floor to tool mode). On the underside of this section is a small (about 1 inch square) red plastic piece with a little door on it. Flip open the door and you will probably find it is clogged. Clean it out and you should have full suction again.

Are you using it on the same carpet as before? When I cleaned the baesment indoor/outdoor carpet with no pad (over concrete floor) it brought up most of the water. But I've never got that good of results when I use it on my regular carpet (with pad). So my theory is the thicker the carpet and pad, the less water it will be able to extract. I think if you keep going over and over the same spot, the heat from the unit will help dry it a little.

I have the bissell x2 12 amp carpet shampooer

The water should be picked up fairly rapidly into the area surrounding the clean water bladder. Try checking the lint filter to fix your suction problem. It is located in the top clear plastic section (the one with the dial to switch from tool to floor use). One the under side of it there is a small (1 inch square) red filter with a little door on it. Flip open the door and it is probably clogged with hair, carpet fibre. etc.. Clean it out and you should have suction.
