What is the best brand for a carpet extractor. I have the mytee lite now and am looking to upgrade to a bigger machine. I'm looking for more suction and pump PSI. Does anybody have a brand not normally mentioned on here that they love?

I did several google searches and found lots of different commercial brands. Duramid is one. You might search locally for a janitorial service co that can offer advice as well as repair when needed.

Why do you feel you need more suction/psi? Not drying can be fixed with a $50 blower, additional dry passes or a final go-over with your wet vac. Not cleaning might be fixed with different shampoo or pre-treat. I can't imagine needing more PSI than my Mytee. I'm trying to remove the dirt, not the carpet itself.

What's your process?

I have been getting alot more customers lately and am looking for a 2nd machine to have around the garage. The Mytee i have now works really good but was just wondering if their was such a thing as the "ultimate" carpet extractor.

Does anybody have any experience with "Internal Spray" Hand Tools. I am on Steam-brite.com's website and am looking at the Mytee HP60 PLUS. It has a 220 psi pump with internal spray wand hand tool. Just wondering if anybody has one of these and do they like it?

I've never heard of the HP60Plus. I have the HP60 spyder and like it. The only problem I have had was the sprayer tip went kaput and wouldn't spray a good pattern but it was a $10 fix.
Can you post a link to the HP60PLUS with the internal sprayer plz:props:

Save yourself some $$$ and soak your tips in a sealable bottle ( waterbottle will do just fine)
with some CLR or wheel acid/water mix; might save you in the middle of a job.

Thanks for the tip. HAHA get it ....tip.... I actually tried that with both CLR, Megs wheel bright, and vinager. Nothing worked. I even tried running it through the lines. It increased the PSI, but the tip itself was actually damaged. I ordered another tip just in case it happens again lol.
