Bissell 9500 is a home cleaning system that uses the power of heat, brushes, and specialised cleaning formula to deliver ultimate clean. Some of the special features of your Bissell 9500 include:

  • Built-in Heater Feature: Equipped with a patented built-in heater, Bissell 9500 heats the hot tap water you put in up to 25 degrees hotter to safely optimize cleaning effectiveness. The heater ensures the temperature never exceeds 190 degrees. The heater switch on the front of the machine controls the heater, giving you the option to turn it off when cleaning delicate fabrics like wool or oriental rugs.
