extractor

[jdubb12]

Is it ok to use an extractor on cloth seats? I would assume so but i havent heard anyone talk about it.

Yes it is just fine.

I use one on really dirty upholstery when needed and it works great.

Go for lots of suction! 120"+

 

[jdubb12]

is 100 psi good with 150" of waterlift?

 

[imported_smprince1]

that sounds like plenty ... more than enough.

If you have an open budget go for a heated unit! Much better performance than cold.



I dont know what I ever did without my extractor. I love it!

I'm not sure that second one has heat. Oh, you want heat!



100 psi is adequate for detailing (we have 500 psi), but not appropriate for residential carpet cleaning. Remember, the carpet wand is probably 3x wider than the upholstery tool, so you'd be dispersing solution three times further. This unit won't be efficient ($$$) for commercial/daily use. But, if you just want to use it home, fine. Plan plenty of time...



Happy to see that you are doing your research!

Good Luck
