Large Capacity Clean Water Tank Holds 1.75 Gallons.
We`ll show you how! For large messes, follow the fill lines on the clean tank to add the correct amount of hot tap water, portable machine formula, and 1oz of Bissell Boost. The same applies for smaller messes. Just follow up to the appropriate fill line.
Easy-to-fill water tank holds 6.6 fl. oz. of water that`s easy to measure with the included water cup.
For square and rectangular tanks, all you have to do is measure the length, width, and depth of the tank, then multiply them together and divide by 231, the number of cubic inches in a gallon.
For large properties with significant landscaping and a large home we recommend a minimum of 10,000 gallons. For smaller properties and homes that don`t have to worry about fire considerations, 2500-3000 gallons is a common tank tank that will give you plenty of water for daily needs.

Using formula cap on the clean water tank, pour 1-2 capfuls of formula (2.5 – 5 fl oz) into the tank, for stained and heavily soiled carpets use 2 capfuls. For all other rental and full size extraction machines. Use 2.5 fl oz to each gallon of hot top water. Repeat as needed.

I have a Bissell Proheat 2XTurbo carpet cleaner. No water will come out when I squeeze the trigger. I have filled the solution tank and the water tank. I read the troubleshooting in the manual and have tried turning it off for a minute and restarting and nothing. I took out both tanks and reseated them and nothing. It has sat for over a year but did not have any water in the water tank. Some solution was left in the solution tank. How can I make the water come out? HELP!
