FAQ’S

How do I use the Little Green Proheat?

The Little Green Proheat is easy to use. Simply fill the tank with water and add your favourite cleaning solution. Plug the appliance into a grounded electrical outlet and turn it on.

How do I know when to empty the tank?

The Little Green Proheat has a handy indicator that tells you when to empty the dirty water. When the indicator light goes on, it’s time to empty the dirty water tank.

Can you use cold water in a Bissell Little Green ProHeat?

No. You must fill it with heated water.

Can you use Bissell Little Green without water?

No. While it does act as a vacuum for water, you would get a giant mess if using as a regular vacuum without the water running through it. Do not recommend at all.

Why is my Bissell Little Green leaking?

Leaking From the BottomYou’ll need to make sure the collection tank is locked into place, just as if the leak was above the collection tank. If you’re still having issues, it’s likely due to the ball valve on the bottom of the tank.

Why does my Bissell not spray water?

If your machine is still not spraying, check to make sure the clean tank has water and/or the water & formula mixture in the tank. If your tank is empty, this could be the reason your machine is not spraying. You will need to fill your clean tank again. Reset the tank and ensure it sits snug on the machine.

Can I use vinegar and water in my Bissell?

Create a cleaning solution with one part white vinegar and one part hot water. Clean the window frames by wiping them down with a cloth that’s dampened with an all-purpose cleaner and water. Then wipe the solution away with a clean water cloth and dry the frame thoroughly.

Does the Bissell ProHeat actually heat the water?

But you might be a little disappointed if you expect this tool to heat up its own water. Despite its name being the Bissell ProHeat, this carpet cleaner doesn’t actually heat up the water it uses to clean your floors.

Can you put boiling water in Bissell?

After you get out your carpet cleaner, fill the clean tank to the line with hot (not boiling) tap water. Hot water does a better job cleaning than cold but, if you boil it, you run the risk of melting parts of your carpet cleaner.

Why is my Bissell Little Green not sucking?

If you are experiencing No/Low Suction, follow these steps to resolve: Check dirty water tank Turn off & unplug machine Remove & empty dirty water tank Firmly push dirty water tank plug back.

How do you deep clean a little green machine?

Make sure your machine is off and unplugged.First you’ll need to empty and rinse the dirty water tank.To remove the tank, lift it straight up and pull away from the unit.Pull on the black tab and rinse out the tank with clean water after emptying.

Does a Bissell little green have a reset button?

Locate the brush reset button on the lower back right of the vacuum. Press the button to reset the brushroll To ensure the brush has been reset, plug the vacuum back into the electrical outlet. Turn on the vacuum detent the vacuum to begin cleaning Turn the brushroll on.
