I am looking for a HEATED portable extractor that meets the following requirements:
1. Runs on two 15 amp circuits.
2. It also needs the option of running without heat on one 15 amp circuit.
3. 250 psi or better.
4. Cleans better than a rug doctor
 Any advice you can offer would be much appreciated.

Good luck with that. I've found that to get a machine with proper power, you'll need to 2 cords for vacs and pump. I'm using a 2 cord machine (3 vacs, 500 psi pump) and a 3750 watt 2 cord heater. It can be a challenge sometimes. Also, internal heaters create a pain in the a$$ to get to prime. All that being said, I have a pretty skookum set up. -------------

I dont sell portables with heat Paul. Not effective IMO. You need the power to go to the Vacs and pump for best results.  ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

I'm sure if I look back at the posts you haven't "edited", I can find where you were selling one with heat -------------

No you wont. I have never sold them, and never will. If you need heat, mount it in a van and heat with propane. Only electric heaters strongenough to run on electric are the 220 volt types, and they are all external.  ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

The ProChem 2000 Electric inline heater works awesome at around 250-300psi by running hot water through it.. I've used it for almost 2yrs before getting my TM..
Some say they don't work.. I say they are wrong.. I will take 2-2stage..250-300 psi and heat over 2-3 stage and no heat..

I started my own business when I was 25 years old. I had good success in the past, but wanted to actually build a business that within time, can run almost on it own. Now being 33 and realizing what it takes to run a business, the potential of http://www.Oxifresh.com - Oxifresh is unbelievable. When you have a system that allows you to run your business from the Internet most of the time from anywhere that has Internet service, this flexibility can really change your family and personal life. My past businesses tied me down to store frontage locations, high overhead, and no time to get away because I had to be there. I was really overworked and saw no opportunity to replicate a system to increase my investment. Oxi Fresh is a duplicatable business. I am very excited about this opportunity and knew right from the start that Jonathan and his team had a good thing going. Thanks for the opportunity! CharlsLeonOxi Fresh of ------------- CharlsLeon |

This time he is telling the truth possibly since this post confirms what he says and it was not recently edited: We have no heaters in our machines, cause heaters can not keep up with the high flow(1.5 gpm)that our machine can produce, so they are not necessary.

I believe that US Products COBRA series offers one porty with 300 PSI.
