Had my Extracta Scrubba deluxe 8 years. Found out today theres a cleanable filter on the solution feed. It needed cleaning as i started making a dirty beige carpet into a dirty beige carpet with clean stripes LOLLLLLLLLLLL

Half way down the steel tubing on the plastic blue pipe there is a small metal barel (spell) un-screw this and you will find its all clogged up with scale and chemical powder!
Be careful you dont lose the small plastic o rings in there!

Your middle jet might also be blocked.


I'm amazed any water is going through after 8 years without clearing it.

This is why it is important to have all your machinery serviced annually.   ;)
