I'm trying to decide which machine or machines I would need for my carpet and tile cleaning business, I'm stuck between the Mytee M12 so I can save on having to buy two machines, or if I did buy two machines I would want the Mytee Redline Breeze RL1200 for tile and the Mytee 1003dx for carpet. If I buy the Mytee M12 Would 250 Psi and 210 degrees be enough to clean real tough dirt out of carpet? I will also be using a Rotovac 360. What is the Ideal Psi to clean carpet with 210 degrees F? |

depends on the carpet
cut pile nylon I use about 400psi
but I think the 210 degrees is misleading ------------- A.K.A. Andy |

| Dude...I got a Diamondback stormchaser with 200 psi and inline heater for my first porty, and if i had to do it over again, i would have not even worried about a heater on a porty. I use hot tap to fill up, and it works great for me... I would find something with two 3-stage motors, and not worry about a heater. |

| I think thats what i might do i am looking at the Sandia Sniper that can go to 1200 psi for tile cleaning also, and it has 1/2 stage and 1/3 stage. |

| Why is Sandia pure junk? What would you recommend that can go to 1200 psi? |

The Sandia Sniper 1200 is the exact same thing as the Hydro-Force Olympus 1200 they both have the Lamb motors, and the pumptec pumps, and if you look at the both of them they also have the same exact plastic shell, the only difference is just two different names and the colors they use. Now so your saying the Hydro-Force Olympus 1200 is pure junk too? |

MOST PEOPLE ON THIS SITE THINK THAT IF YOU HAVE A PORTABLE THEY,RE ALL JUNK. THEY HAVE TRUCKMOUNT BRAIN. YES IT HAS RECENTLY BEEN RELEASED BY THE MEDICAL JOURNAL AS A NARROW MIND AILMENT. MOST THAT SAY THIS OR THAT IS JUNK HAVE NEVER OWNED ONE OR THEY BASE THEIR OPINION FROM BACK IN THE OLDEN DAYS. DO YOUR HOMEWORK ADVANCED88 THERE IS MANY GOOD MACHINES OUT THERE AND THERE NOT ALL JUNK. JUST LOOK FOR A MACHINE THAT IS 3 STGES OR MORE AND WIRED IN PARALALL. GOOD LUCK ------------- JUST WATCHING AND LEARNING |

| I know what you mean most people I ran into on here have been negative and narrow minded, I started to think this was a criticizing forum and not one that would actually help. Watchman I really appreciate the advice it means alot to get a straight honest bit of advice. |

| You might want to look at usproducts.com, they have a 1200 psi model, the only bad thing....single 3 stage vac, that only gives you 137 in. of lift. Just giving u another option. |
