Mytee Lite III 8070 230V

It is not necessary to use distilled water in this extractor. It is BETTER to use distilled water and the machine won’t get build-up as easily in the lines but regular tap water can be used so most detailers use plain water.

Carpet extractors shoot out hot water and suck it back up so they are meant for deep cleaning carpet/upholstery. Vapor Steamers boil water and put out steam so are meant for surface cleaning on a variety of surfaces.

For best results and we recommend NOT putting chemical inside the extractor although you can. If you put chemical inside of the machine every time you squeeze the trigger you are applying more soap into the carpet and never rinsing it out. Soap in the carpet will dry stiff, be sticky, and attract dirt quicker. If you put only water inside of the machine apply the soap to the carpet/upholstery with a spray bottle, you will be able to rinse everything out and that will leave a much nicer and more professional end result. You will also need to run a descaling solution like our Extractor Maintainer through the machine much more frequently if running chemical through the machine.
