I am seting up a rain catcher using a 275 gallon tank. Since the output value is on the bottom will that be enough pressure to push it through the hose. The hose is thirty feet and there is a water sprayer at the end of the hose. I am seting up a rain catcher using a 275 gallon tank.

Check to see if you get water from the hand held nozzle if so you have a clogged heater.If you get nothing at neither the floor or hose check the belt on the right side of the machine there is a cover that you need to remove it runs the pump and may be stretched out or broken. Also check the solution tank if it is not sealed properly you won't get any water either. For parts cleaning solution or questions visit www.stevessewandvac.com.

1. Step on the handle releae pedal and lay the handle back.
2. Remove the tank and take it to thesink.
3. Remove the top cover cover and fill the plastic bladder with water only.
4. Replace the tank.
5. Your 'Smart Mix' (shampoo) bottle is on the operator's right in front of the machine. Remove it and fill it with Bissell shampoo.
6. Shampoo is automatically mixed with the water as you dispense it depending on how your 'Smart Mix' Knob is adjusted.
The Scotchguard is going to be dicey inside the Bissell, yes, as you have learned the hard way.
I think the Bissell and the Hoover shampoos sold for their carpet cleaning machines are reasonably safe to use in the Bissell. My own personal favorite for use with the Bissell is the Hoover Premium Pet Formula, which is pricey but effective even if you don't own pets. I also pre-treat stained areas with Resolve Carpet Cleaner, a few minutes before using the Bissell.
I don't know what will happen with your home brew containing Dove. It may work well.
My Bissell stops releasing shampoo when the handle is lacked upright, when there is no water in the tank (the most common cause of this issue), or when water is not flowing through the machine because the sprayers are clogged.
Make sure the shampoo container grommet is releasing properly when you press the trigger. To check this, remove the shampoo tank from the Bissell, stand over a sink, and use a finger to push up inside the grommet on the shampoo container, the part of it that mates with the rest of the Bissell. Shampoo should dribble out when you do this. If it won't, the grommet may be clogged.
first take the large tank out open the top of it and place hot water in the small round opening, than put the lid back on and set the tank firmly back in place, then take the small shampoo resivour and fill that with only genuine bissell shampoo ( if you dont it could ruin the machine !!!! ) then theres a small knob near the small tank adjust that to regular or heavy traffic if its really bad.
On the 1698 modle thier is a large clean water tank and a smaller shampoo bottle which seats on the side of the machine.
the shampoo goes in the smaller bottle fo the two.
MY CARPET CLEANER WAS NOT SPRAYING ANY WATER OR CLEANING SOLUTION. I TOOK THE BACK OFF OF THE HEATER THAT IS IN THE HANDLE. IT WAS CLOGGED WITH CALCIUM DEPOSITS. I CLEANED THE HEATER AND PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AND IT WORKS GREAT. KEN
