    Posted: 09/March/2009 at 5:03am
hi guys I'm new to this  forum and I have a question  I have a mytee extractor with a 200 psi pump,and 25 ft vacuum and solution hoses I usually use it for commercial jobs, but lately I've been getting calls from apartment buildings and some of them are 2 story units, and I hate to drag the machine up the stairs to clean, depending on the job I use  the rotovac power, all this been said my question is this.
can I use my 200 psi extractor with a 50 ft long hose?
 
can I use it with the rotovac?
 
will I lose psi because of the 50 ft long hose?
 
please help!!

The pump isn't the issue. The issue is the number and size if the vacuums.
 
Anyhow, I would never use 50 feet of hose without a booser, even if you have 2 3-stage vacuums in the machine.

You will have friction loss somewhat, but it's not going to be significant. The water pressure won't be a problem, but the vac power with that extractor probably won't be good.

You could probably run a Recoil from Cross American with 50' of hose without a problem, but in your case you might want a booster for your Mytee.

well for me........
 
it's gotta have at least 2 three stage vacs and 2' vac hose,2' plumbing,and a 2' tubed wand.
 
I honestly don't have less than a 50 foot hose

An OP machine like Padman's
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?
