Answer: The heater is a separate tank mounted under the hood of the carpet cleaning machine. This 12 oz tank only takes 2 minutes to reach 210 degree and then it turns itself off. Once you start to clean it turns it self back on and tries to keep up with you water passing through it. This water never heat the 12 gallon fresh tank and the machine is designed to be filled with hot water. The heater is designed to boost the water temperature you pour in it. If you are at a job site and there is no hot water to fill the machine with, you can install a blank male QD on the end of the solution hose and bleed the hot water that comes out of the hose back into the fresh tank to let is circulate back into the fresh. Do not let the water exceed 140 degrees F for this is the max temperature for the seals on the pump head.
