Great video. Couple of questions. Do you use the quick coupler at both ends, (needing 2) and also the hose connection, do you have a link for that from Amazon. I assume it's a female hose to quarter inch iron pipe adapter.
Didnt sacrifice anything. I can early convert it back into a dry system with a filter swap and wand attachment. Glad you found success with your Bissell. Just didnt have enough capacity for me for larger jobs.
Imo i belive it would handle it. Definitely want the larger wand for floors so your back isnt destroyed by one bedroom. But heck yes shell handle it. I know it looks kinda odd but this thing puts in serious work
So im unfamiliar with that model, however it uses a similar hp sized motor then it will have the power. (Most vacume's use a same size hose or adapters). Somin theroy yes. However ive not actually done one with the Beast version. Should work!

Heat comes in a few forms. Like the chemical heat I used (that was flex carpet solutions in that bottle i sprayed) or the mechanical heat of a drill brush. Ive taken plenty of stains out without heated water.
This wouldnt allow for metered mixing ability. For a rinse i normaly use a pumo sprayer diluted and then sprayed and extracted with only water. But if i cam think of a way to incorporate something like that ill make another video. I dig the idea.
@@detailaddicts thank you! will look forward to that. this vid also has been uploaded for about a year now and its suprising that you replied so fast :D
I always see everyone mention adding the water line. Can I use this just to extract and apply the cleaner by sprayer and hit it with a drill brush before I extract?
So you could. However the water is used to remove and neutralize the soap solution. The water is also is used to surfactant and suspend the dirt and help remove it easier through the fabrics interwoven fibers.
The water was hooked up to a garden hose spigot. (Could also be hooked up tona hot water tap). If you check out the end when i dump the wate into the bucket youll see the blue line connected in the backround
So if I just want to.hook this up to my shop vac and don't car about spraying a cleaning solution, what is the method to hook it up? Is having this attachment any better or has better or stronger suction capability than me going out and purchasing a 6hp 3-1 Extracror made by HART?
So this allows you to flush / rinse the carpets out with water. To hook up attach the 1 7/8 wand to any hose and boom dry extraction vacume. (Adapter may be needed to go to larger hose size as i did in the video) As for increased in suctionn there may be some, but the holes in the extractor head are smaller then a normal shop vac hose. So actual water removal flow may not be any greater then a regular hose. As for why you would build this over buy the HART well thats down to user preferences. The HART is a cheaper version of the Mytee. This was a DIY version to replicate and exceed a Mytee's abilities for much less and with more durable parts. (Also the vacume's warranty is lifetime at any HomeDepot (fast changes if a problem happens) thus making repairs a quick and easy thing. After years of using pro 3in 1 products that broke sometimes on the forst use others mid job with an expensive and complicated rebuild i decided there had to be a less fancy optioned way that was much more durable and rapidly repairable by common and easy to aquire parts (wand head was the only exception and a very bugie one i might add lol). But hey the part has a great design and why messs with it? Take the best of Mytee and leave the worst (there cheap fittings, pump and expensive shipping costs.
If you do buildings, get the lomg floor atachment so your not bent over the whole time. And yes it can be hoooked up to a hot water spigot, or hot water tank to flow hot water through it instead of cold.
Ive got almost 65psi out of my spigot sapposedly (havnt checked the claim). As for heat youncould attach this to a hot water heater, or use a chemical heat with say drill brushes mechanical heat. The heating element is one of the most comon failed parts (followed by switches, fittings and pumps). My thought was to make a cold water system that was rugade and use supplemental heat via chemical (flex fire and ice carpet solutions).
So I’ve never really used any extractors besides my bisell spot clean professional, will this blow this one out of the water? I spend so dang long, refilling the little tank and do the seats dry pretty quickly? I use mine and use it all the time, and it’s so time consuming!
Youll have a larger storage tank, water on demand not a tank base. Meaning you can go alot further and faster then the Bissell. If your needing more then a Bissell but not wanting to buy a mytee for $1300, then this is the perfect in-between machine for you. All the benefits of a mytee wothout the cost.

Привет. Очень понравился твой видео обзор. Подробно и понятно все показал и рассказал. Перевод с английского на русский читал в субтитрах. Я подписался на твои видео. Поставил лайк. Смотрел несколько раз этот ролик. Очень понравилась твоя самоделка. Я тоже хочу такую же себе собрать. Буду очень признателен в твой помощи в покупке такого же набора инструмента . Я из России.
So a mytee extractor (small unit no heat) msrp is $650ish. This was a way for people to build there own with similar features (same wand / head) for less than half the price. And while there are cheaper extractors, generally mytee is considerd to be twards the top. Despite the high price, fittings failing from factory, and issues with pumps burning out. For less than half i built a unit one can used in a shop based section that not only runs just as well, but is much cheaper and easier to replace a broken piece. And holds alot more liquids, meaning less stoping and emptying during larger jobs.
A smaller less powerful one yea. The rug dr or Bissell is less money. But also holds a fraction and requires multiple empty and refills. Its the cost to performance factor. Otherwise i would have kept using the small units.
Um....no. its takes hardly any time to dry. The 8400p uses very little water when dispemsing (fine mist) and the vacume has alot of suction to remove the excess water. Ive done several cars with this and the dry time was no longer then any mytee.
Yes it does. Watch the video. Twards the end you can visibly see the blue hose connected to the water spigot. Go to 8 min 58 sec in and behold it is connected. (Smh back)
I use the size 1 and 1/0 Mustad hooks to freeline for snook th-cam.com/users/postUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 and they have been fantastic. The points are super sharp, and the hook is small enough to blend with my baitfish, yet large enough to land fish 30" or more. I also use these hooks when I'm pier or surf fishing with my kids. They tend to catch tons of smaller snapper, whiting, and catfish, and we get far fewer gut hooks with these Mustad in-lines, which means more of them survive after release. I was actually using these hooks when I caught my friend too, but I think that had more to do with the bait I was using ;-)

Some may owrfer the 1in 7/8 for its thinner diameter and easier to maneuver. I dont think either is a bad option. I just like to hotrod my equipment to run hardcore.
@@detailaddicts im actually trying to make my ridgid the same like you and was going insane on how i can do it and what hose will be perfect for the water succion but then i found this and i guess 2 1/2 hose is good enough as well
@@angelsantiago6813 just remeber if going 2.5 youll need that adapter to drop down to the wands size. (Avalibe in 3pack of asscories at HomeDepot)
@@detailaddicts another question i have the 6.5 hp blower head one.. and cannot find a filter for that one.. where can i look.. its the vf4000 - vf6000 and cannot find one for that shop vac
What's the name of the song at 5:43?
I will deliver by Strength To Last
@@detailaddicts Nice! Thanks man.
it's not available on amazon where else can i get it
hi wich adapter do u use between tthe the hose and wand?
1/4 in quick disconnect couplers. Link in description for Amazon
@@detailaddicts sorry vacumm hose and wand, to attach the wand to the hose
@@nazareoramos3968 the couplers were from an accessories pack i got at home depot. But its a 1.75 in (wand size) to 2.5 in (hose size). The suction hose is the hd crush proof version rigid makes (avalibe at local home depot amd amazon)
@@detailaddicts thanks for your quick reply keep it up
Very dope...do you have a DIY hot water solution??? Lol
Hook it up to a eletric tankless hot eater heater amd boom hot water extraction on demand.

@@detailaddicts thank you mane
You will need a corded online heater for carpet cleaning. That other thing won’t work. Too little. Won’t give you enough hotness
@@hunterhic you can achive heated results via chemically (flex fire and ice solutions), mechanically (drill brush) or physically (steam / hested water).
There are several ways to skin a cat, and to add heat to a fabric is no different.
@@detailaddicts I agree, heat is too expensive.
Will this work on the type of carpet in a home?
Yes. However the head size is quite small. Would be good for small jobs and soot jobs. Otherwisr a traditional long carpet wand would be better.
What is connected to the extraction wand? Mine came with just the wand.
Not sure what what your refering to. Perhaps its the black coupler to adapt the smaller wand handle to the large diamater hose? That is a shop vac hose adapter that is found at home depot.
Or are you refering to the water line in on the handle. If so dod you purchase the mytee 8400p or a cheaper plastic verison. The reason i dont recommended them is because there do not have the sprayer assembly and wster line adapter and wil need to be sourced as well (hidden upcost).
Help me help you lol
great idea bro
Thanks boss. Hope you enjoyed.
Got links to AL this stuff??

What’s the gray hose from?
That was the original hose that come with the shop vac when i purchased it. I then bought 2 of the hd hose's to extend it, so i could reach anywhere without moving the vacume.
@@detailaddicts thanks bro this helps me alot. We have two broken mytees at the shop. Two are still working. This is something I feel will help better on the mobile unit. Less chance of a failure rate. There's time when the mytees broke down on the job.
@@pandassudsnshine4125 and should the vac fail, its a short trip to the depo for another lifetime warranty rigid.
Glad you found this helpful, dont forget to tell your friends. Gots to spred the gospel lol.
Nice job!
Thank you!
Привет. Очень понравился твой видео обзор. Подробно и понятно все показал и рассказал. Перевод с английского на русский читал в субтитрах. Я подписался на твои видео. Поставил лайк. Смотрел несколько раз этот ролик. Очень понравилась твоя самоделка. Я тоже хочу такую же себе собрать. Буду очень признателен в твой помощи в покупке такого же набора инструмента . Я из России.
Were you able to source the parts? I’m looking to make a similar set up too.
Thing is, why not just purchase an extractor for the same price?
So a mytee extractor (small unit no heat) msrp is $650ish. This was a way for people to build there own with similar features (same wand / head) for less than half the price.
And while there are cheaper extractors, generally mytee is considerd to be twards the top. Despite the high price, fittings failing from factory, and issues with pumps burning out.
For less than half i built a unit one can used in a shop based section that not only runs just as well, but is much cheaper and easier to replace a broken piece. And holds alot more liquids, meaning less stoping and emptying during larger jobs.
you can buy and exrtactor for less than 250
A smaller less powerful one yea. The rug dr or Bissell is less money. But also holds a fraction and requires multiple empty and refills.
Its the cost to performance factor. Otherwise i would have kept using the small units.
wheres the water supply
Water is connected to hose spigot. 8min 58 sec. You cen see the blue water in line connected
I could do it for $150
Do it
Well if it's connected to a regular water spigot it's gonna take a week to dry 🤭
Um....no. its takes hardly any time to dry. The 8400p uses very little water when dispemsing (fine mist) and the vacume has alot of suction to remove the excess water.
Ive done several cars with this and the dry time was no longer then any mytee.
That’s terrible for use any other time than in the summer..your fingers are gonna be frozen
I live and work in south Florida...
No real cold winters here.
Still doesn't show where the water hose goes to!! SMH
Yes it does. Watch the video. Twards the end you can visibly see the blue hose connected to the water spigot. Go to 8 min 58 sec in and behold it is connected. (Smh back)
Or just buy a bissel extractor for that price lol
Bissell has neither the power nor the tank volume this dose.
And rigids warranties are actually really good.
No c v mi madres
Speak up bro
New camera and microphone are in the shop. Next video will be better.
Still learning this TH-cam stuff a bit.
Ill say it with my chest next time 🤣
I use the size 1 and 1/0 Mustad hooks to freeline for snook th-cam.com/users/postUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 and they have been fantastic. The points are super sharp, and the hook is small enough to blend with my baitfish, yet large enough to land fish 30" or more. I also use these hooks when I'm pier or surf fishing with my kids. They tend to catch tons of smaller snapper, whiting, and catfish, and we get far fewer gut hooks with these Mustad in-lines, which means more of them survive after release. I was actually using these hooks when I caught my friend too, but I think that had more to do with the bait I was using ;-)
