Special features Your BISSELL ProHeat 2X deep cleaner is a home cleaning system that uses the power of heat, brushes and cleaning formula to get the deep down dirt for a maximum clean. Not only does it come with a lot of unique features, it has been designed with you, the customer, in mind. Built-in-Heater feature BISSELL ProHeat 2X models all feature a patented built-in heater which will heat the hand hot tap water you put in up to 25 degrees hotter to safely optimize cleaning effectiveness.
Special features 2-in-1 water tank Our 2-in-1 water tank full capacity system is designed with a heavy duty bladder inside for clean water. As you clean, the clean water in the bladder will empty and mix with the cleaning formula. Dirty water pulled out of your carpets will collect around the outside of the bladder so that clean and dirty water are always kept separate. This allows the user to maximize tank space, yet only carry one tank to and from the sink for emptying and filling.
