Title: Steameasy
Post by: davep on August 07, 2006, 01:21:26 pm

Hi, does anyone have a Steameasy, if so how do you empty the dirty water tank all the way?  The tap is about an inch from the bottom and tipping it doesn't really work..

had my steameasy 3years now sorry to say thats the only way, when i tip it most of the dirty water gets out , just remember to put some bleach or disinfectant in the dirty tank and leave the lid open.

Thanks Geoege, i use a giant sponge to soak up the end, not nice though!   What size pump and vac do you have and do you get good results?

Ta george, im just starting off and am using one as bit skint just now, will upgrade as soon as poss..  I have done my carpets and a couple of friends.  They weren't too dirty to start off with althogh the water was black at the end.

I did the NCCA training but am worried the machine just won't get results from paying custys?

Hi, no van yet.  I am just in the process of geting some leaflets made, ads in parish mags.  I can get the gear in my car but i know thats the last thing i want to turn up in. 

I need to use any profits made for a better machine (ninja?) and then a small van. 

Any tips for starting out?
