13H8 specifications

The Bissell 13H8 is a powerful and versatile carpet cleaner designed to restore the look and feel of your carpets, leaving them looking fresh and new. With its innovative design and advanced cleaning technologies, this machine is an essential tool for maintaining a clean home environment.

One of the standout features of the Bissell 13H8 is its Heatwave Technology, which helps to maintain the water temperature throughout the cleaning process. By ensuring that the water remains hot, this technology enhances the cleaning power, effectively loosening and removing tough stains and embedded dirt from carpets.

The Bissell 13H8 is equipped with a dual tank system that separates clean water and dirty water. This design allows for continuous cleaning without the worry of mixing clean and dirty water, providing a more effective and hygienic cleaning experience. The clean water tank has a generous capacity, reducing the frequency of refills during larger cleaning sessions.

Another significant feature is its powerful suction capability, which not only removes dirt and stains from carpets but also extracts excess moisture, speeding up the drying time. This is particularly important for preventing mold and mildew growth in carpets after cleaning. The Bissell 13H8 is also designed with specialized brushes that agitate carpet fibers to ensure a deep clean, enhancing the effectiveness of the cleaning solution.

For added convenience, this carpet cleaner comes with a variety of handy attachments, including a tough stain tool and a crevice tool, making it easy to tackle difficult spots, upholstery, and even stairs. These tools allow users to clean hard-to-reach areas efficiently and precisely.

Ease of use is another key characteristic of the Bissell 13H8. Its lightweight design means it can be maneuvered comfortably around the home, and the simple control panel makes operation straightforward, even for those new to carpet cleaning.

Overall, the Bissell 13H8 stands out with its combination of advanced cleaning technologies, user-friendly features, and versatile attachments. Whether you're dealing with pet stains, high-traffic areas, or routine maintenance, the Bissell 13H8 offers a reliable solution for keeping carpets looking their best.
