Area Rug Cleaning

Important! Please check manufacturer’s tag before cleaning area rugs for any specialized cleaning instructions. We do not recommend deep cleaning delicate, silk, wool, antique or area rugs without a manufacturer’s tag.

Regularly clean your high-traffic area rugs in Express Clean Mode:

  • Check the manufacturer’s tag.
  • Select Express Clean Mode.
  • When cleaning area rugs, place the rug on a sealed surface to test for colorfastness in an inconspicuous area. Your cleaner should not be used on unsealed surfaces.
  • Important: Keep the foot of the deep cleaner perpendicular to the rug’s edge with each cleaning pass to prevent damage.

Cleaning with Hose & Tool

  1. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts. Brushroll continues to rotate when in the upright position.
  2. Brushroll continues to turn while product is turned on and handle is in upright position. To avoid damage to carpet, rugs, furniture and flooring, avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted stairs during tool use.
  3. The brushroll remains on while cleaning with the hose and tool. Do not allow cleaner to sit in one location for an extended period of time, as damage to floor can result.

FAQS

What is the difference between this model and the pro version? 

The pro has a 3’ longer cord, a pretreated, and some sort of brush roll cover.

Does this have a rinse mode?

Bissell sells an attachment for bare floors.

Does it use leaded or unleaded gasoline?

No gasoline needed.

Does this work on thick area rugs?

I imagine it will depend on what you mean by “thick”. If it’s very deep or long loop pile, I think you might have problems. I have an extremely dense woven “Persian” area carpet that’s fairly thick that a rescue dog hit a couple of times as she was learning. It took three careful treatments with multiple passes (making sure to keep running the Bissell until it was sucking up nothing more than droplets each time) to clean it fully, but the Bissell got the job done eventually. Much better than any “pro” cleaners I’d ever had. I made sure to let the carpet dry thoroughly between each treatment. It worked great for a standard loop carpet and a thick, dense plush pile carpet with just one treatment.

does this come with bare floor attachment?

No

The belt broke. How do I order a new one?

Look up Bissell online and call there service number!

Does that upholstery cleaner have suction?

Yes. Very good suction. There are two attachments as well. One with just brush bristles for upholstery and one with bristles and nubs for cleaning ground in messes.

Does Bissell make a wash & Storage tray that’s compatible with the 1548F?

No, but you can use the HydroRinse self cleaning tool to clean out the upholstery hose. This is part number 1613828.

Does it pick up dog puke?

After you pick up any chunks. Does clean up the aftermath.

Can I use on carpet tiles?

I wouldn’t without first asking the manufacturer of the carpet tile. This machine has a very robust brushing action. The wet solution and strong suction of the machines vacuum may ruin or pull off the tiles.

Is this easy to clean?

Very easy to clean

is it 220v-240v?

No, this deep cleaner should only be used with a standard 110 or 120V US/CA outlet.

How often can you use it?

I use mine about every three weeks….I’m sure you could use it everyday if you cleaned throughly after every use.

Will it make large area rugs over hardwood floors too wet?

No it can controlled by amount of water you use I love it and dry fast

Does this macine have offgassing or warning california 65 proposition?

I do not know what these are but there is no off gassing

Is this a steam cleaner?

No it isn’t. You fill the tank with hot water. Hope that helps. If you have any other questions, just ask. Regards, Kathleen

can this be used as a regular vacuum ?

No it cannot, this is designed for carpet cleaning only. We’d recommend vacuuming your carpet before using.

What’s the difference between the proheat 2x revolution and the bissell proheat 2x carpet cleaner?

We have many different carpet cleaners. The Revolution models have two separate tanks for the clean and dirty water. Colors, accessories and designs will vary by retailer.

Are the brushes removable?

I have one now that is a pain to clean after use. The brushes can be removed to clean if needed.

How east is it to empty tanks?

Tank removal is quite easy for both! Cleaning dirty water tank is not problem.

What is vacuum power?

It cleaned my couch and carpets nicely. It didn’t dry it as fast as was told, but I would buy it again. It’s not as heavy and awkward as the rentals.

what about rinsing the carpet?

It didn’t do a very thorough job due to the suction part of the dirty water container not sealing tight. It would leave the dirty water in the carpet.

Is this machine easy to clean? Easy access to brushes for cleaning?

I find it easy to clean, the brushes are accessible, the machine comes with a thin flexible wand to get into the area where the waste water is removed from the carpet which I like to use to remove pet hair.

How to use?

Open dumpster. Place machine in dumpster and close lid. Just did that after less than a year and less than 10 uses.

Why did i find water in my new shampooer at time of assembly

Similar thing happened to me. I think it may have been an exchange sent as new. I got a new one and it worked well.

What is the product package size and weight?

Similar to a vacuum but not heavy at all. Easy to use!

How do I clean with the hose and tool?

Follow the instructions provided in the user manual. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts. Brushroll continues to rotate when in the upright position. Brushroll continues to turn while product is turned on and handle is in upright position. To avoid damage to carpet, rugs, furniture and flooring, avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted stairs during tool use.

Can I use the Bissell Proheat 2x Revolution on bare floors?

Yes, you can clean area rugs with the deep cleaner. However, it is important to check the manufacturer’s tag before cleaning area rugs for any specialized cleaning instructions. We do not recommend deep cleaning delicate, silk, wool, antique or area rugs without a manufacturer’s tag.

Can I use non-Bissell cleaning formulas with the deep cleaner?

Non-BISSELL cleaning formulas may harm the machine and may void the guarantee. Always use genuine BISSELL deep cleaning formulas.

Can I use the Bissell Proheat 2x Revolution on bare floors?

Fill water to the Water Fill Line, then add 74 mL of formula for Deep Clean Mode and 37 mL of formula for Express Clean Mode.

  1. I downloaded the manual for Revolution 2x but I still couldn’t figure out how to remove the brush roll cover! It also appears that the brushes do not remove for cleaning; you have to unscrew areas, etc. I am extremely disappointed in this machine. I had a Hoover Floor Mate which was 100% more user friendly! (I borrowed this from a friend who also couldn’t figure it out so the brushes and it’s cover are filthy and covered with dog hair!)

    1. We also had difficulty at first, but managed to completely disassemble the machine for a much needed cleaning…more important, we were able to reassemble it and it worked great! If you still are having problems, I would be happy to send you some pics of this process. Let me know, RD

      1. Hi,
        I would also be very interested in how the machine is cleaned. the instructions are a joke.
        Thanks in advance.

        hallo,
        würde mich auch sehr interessieren wie die maschine gereinigt wird. die anleitung ist ja ein witz.
        danke im voraus.

      2. I would also appreciate if you could share this information. Need to get mine apart and clean it well. It now refuses to spray after it’s last use, and I know I cleaned and rinses it with clear water before hand.

      3. Hello, I would also have to disassemble the Proheat twice once, especially since it no longer absorbs the liquid. If you could send me the instructions it would be great.
        L G Haas

        Hallo, auch ich müßte den Proheat 2x einmal zerlegen, zumal er die Flüssigkeit nicht mehr aufsaugt. Wenn Sie mir die Anleitung schicken könnten, wäre das super.
        L G Haas

        1. What have you done ? Mine doesn’t absorb the liquid either …

          Was haben Sie gemacht ? Meiner nimmt die Flüssigkeit auch nicht auf…

      4. PLEASE SEND ME THE PICTURES FOR THE CLEANING PROCESS!
        MANY THANKS LG

        BITTE SENDEN SIE MIR DIE BILDER FÜR DEN REINIGUNGSPROZESS !
        VIELEN DANK LG

      5. Please also 1 instructions for cleaning the machine for me

        Bitte für mich auch 1 Anleitung zur Reinigung der Maschine

      6. How do I disassemble the lower part? There is a lot of dust under the translucent area above the brushes. How do I release this? Can you help me ?

        Hoe moet ik het onderste deel demonteren? Er steektveel stof onder het doorschijnend gedeelte boven de borstels. Hoe moet ik dit losmaken? Ka jij me helpen ?

      7. Hey Randy, please send instructions to diassemble the machine please , thanks for figuring this out. We borrowed and can’t return dirty!! I’m one of those people who would buy them a new one before I returned dirty!! Thanks in advance.

    2. I’ve noticed the brushes were also unremovable, so I set the machine on its end with the with the brush part extended downward , support the unit against a wall outside and use a water hose and spray out the under part while rotating the top brush upward with your thumb. This will cause all the dog hair and debris to roll out. Let dry and for a spell .

  2. My clean water tank is not emptying into the dirty water tank properly. The connections all seem right. Suggestions??

  3. I love this carpet cleaner, the way you can clean the brushes is my favorite part. I have a Golden Retriever his hair is long and coils in my vacuum, But not the brushes of carpet cleaner..

    Con: The machine was purchased new, but upon reading label when ordering a wheel which promptly fell off after a couple uses, the machine was reconditioned. No response from bissell.

  4. The clean water tank seems to be pushing out water but nothing is returning to the dirty tank. Emptied everything, tried again.

  5. I’m trying to use the hose and furniture cleaning attachment. Everything works EXCEPT no cleaning solution is being sprayed.
    I don’t see anything in the manual that would address this.

    1. Try removing the top cover over the brushes and putting it back on. I had the same problem the 1st time I used mine. I apparently didn’t pop it back on correctly. Hope this helps.

  6. Hello, I also have problems, the third time I used it, it no longer spilled water, I squeezed the trigger and the water didn’t come out.
    Does anyone know what could have happened?
    What happened to them?

    Hola,yo también tengo problemas ,a la tercera vez que la e ido a usar ya no tira agua, aprieto el gatillo y no sale el agua.
    Alguien sabe que puede haber pasado?
    Les q pasado lo mismo?

  7. This machine is awesome for cleaning carpets! the carpets get really clean. the instructions for use are total rubbish! i would like to rid the machine of cat hair, especially the red filter under the dirty water tank. only I will not find what you are looking for. can someone help me how to properly clean the machine? brush filters etc.
    Thanks in advance.

    diese maschine ist zum teppichreinigen der hammer! die teppiche werden richtig sauber. die gebrauchanweisung ist aber totaler schrott! ich würde gerne die maschine von katzenhaaren befreien, besonderst der rote filter unter den schmutzwassertank. nur ich werde nicht fündig wie man das macht. kann mir jemand weiterhelfen, wie die maschine richtig gereinigt wird.? bürsten filter etc.
    danke im voraus.

  8. Did anyone here figure out how to take the brushes off for cleaning? Mine don’t seem to be too dirty, but it’s been sitting around for a couple of years and the bottom bucket is not even filling up, so don’t think it’s even doing anything.

  9. I am having a problem fitting he cover back over the brushes…….it clicks in and then clicks out. I have only had it 3 days!!

  10. This is supposed to be a Pet pro, machine I’ve had it about a 2 years and can never get it to pick up the water no matter how many times I take it apart and reassemble it. I have an old Hoover I need to go back to using, I purchased the pet pro because I thought it would work better. ( my dog doesn’t even shed)

  11. Hello, no water enters the dirty water tank. Leaving my carpets wet, then there’s so much dirt in the brush how to clean ?? The dirty one comes out on the carpet

    Ciao, non entra acqua nel serbatoio per l’acqua sporca. Lasciando i miei tappeti bagnati, poi ce tanto sporco nella spazzola come pulire?? Quello sporco esce nello tappeto

  12. I would also like pictures and instructions on how to remove the brush roll cover and brushes to clean them.

  13. My cleaner is extremely hard to push am I doing something wrong or is there something I didn’t t release?

  14. Good evening, we have just purchased the Bessel Proheat 2x Revolution … excellent result … the only problem is we want to have more precise information for cleaning the brushes, … they can be disassembled and reassembled. Thanks we look forward to your kind reply. Regards
    Buonasera, abbiamo appena acquistato il Bessel Proheat 2x Revolution…ottimo risultato…unico problema desideriamo avere informazioni più precise per la pulizia delle spazzole,….possono essere smontate e rimontate. Grazie restiamo in attesa di un vostro cortese riscontro.Saluti

  15. I have had all of the above problems and more. My worst is that nowhere is it suggested that you rinse the rug/carpet using just water after cleaning. I know this because my rug was/is getting WHITE. Where I just cleaned, using (in my opinion way too much detergent) the rug dried a sort of brown. Now I know, I have to rinse it at least 6 times before the soap suds disappear. I shall have to continue washing it for months, but using infinitely less detergent.Mine is not the pet friendly one that, supposedly, doesn’t pick up hairs but it does, somehow, find yards of cotton to wrap round the brushes!
