really so do you ever need to go over really soiled carpets twice with MS or is once ok with the power of your machine?

Once! but this is more to do with loads of aggitation than the power, the heater that comes with the eclipse is also quite a beast, it worked wonders on a big greasy commercial job on saturday ;D

The heater heats to 250f and takes very little time to achieve full heat, once up to temperature it will maintain the heat whilst working. the blower consists of three high speed 2 stage vacs giving 18 inches of mercury lift or 250 inches of water lift.
