the heaters work in line after the pump. it you run more than hot tap water through the pump you could damage or take life out of the pump.

Shawn,
 
have you looked into any of the products by the hitman? 
I am going with his website and online marketing package to start.
 
also, how does the external heating work?  please be very specific...i have never seen that at all.  do you heat it in one resovoir, and then pour it in, or do you put the heater in the solution tank and it heats it there???
 
also, please send a link to one of those units so i can check it out.
 
thanks.

The Mytee is heavy. The Recoil is under 100 lbs. You will need an external heat source. The Recoil does not pull a lot of current.
There is a Jan Sullins? that sells a cool recoil package with a little giant propane heater at a good price or you could order one through steambrite and add theyre heater.
 
ha ha me and my Bro are starting our own biz here very soon

I am planning on it most definitely.
 
Does the recoil heat the water in solution tank?  Also, how is it on blowing breakers?  Also, dont you think the Mytee's are too heavy?  how is the recoil for a one man operation?  can i unload and load by myself??
 
The recoil is a little out of range, but i will just continue to save if that is the BEST one there is....as i will be using the porty i get for the next year saving for a truck and TM. 
 
im not too worried about the hazing haha, im excited to be self employed.  i have been working with my brother cleaning carpets for about 6 months now.  i have a pretty firm grip on what im doing.

I know what you mean about the newbie hazing. Most guys on these forums are great guys and rip on us all in fun.
Call Ed for sure. He will point you in the right direction. If you have the capital to invest then go for the Recoil.
If you dont then start with the Mytee and save up for the recoil.

Your right about Ed.  I havent spoken with him...YET.  I will be calling tho.

I've seen people in this forum treating "newbies" like idiots.  Like, they have something to prove.  I dont get it.  There is plenty of business for everyone!!!  ...And helping your fellow carpet cleaner is just a cool thing to do.  Help the needy right?
 
I will look into the product you  mentioned above.  ...And i didnt know Ed's products allow you to add on as you grow.  I like this idea alot because i plan on growing substantially in this next year!!!

Ed will not say. However his products are at the very top of the portable ladder. I have not used his products but i have spoken with Ed. He posesses a wealth of knowledge but doenst make us new guys feel stupid when talking to him. His Recoil machine is basically a modular setup that can have components ordered later to make the machine "grow" with your company as needs arise. I havent purchased a machine yet to start but the good thing about the recoil is you can use it as a truck mount unit as well.
I looked at the Eclipse but after researching everything I think I would get into a Mytee 1003dx with the "shazaam" add on through steam brite rather than purchasing the eclipse or the EDIC. Even the older model Ninja's by centry 400 would be a good choice and still be under 2000 for the machine easily. or put about 2900-4000 for a Recoil setup.

Ed Valentine,
 
You seem to be the guru around here.  What is your recommendation for the best per pound, per dollar portable out there?

US products has always made good equipment and will continue to do so.
 
There are others out there however, to seriously consider that may fit the bill.
 
Very best

Jeff,
 
Im thinking this is going to be what i will get.  All around quality machine.  Plus, if you cant afford at TM, and if your potential clients have an issue with that, you say "I only use Gold rated equipment as per the Carpet and Rug Institute which has a scientific testing system for all machines and cleaning agents." 
 
Tell me what you think.
