I would think that the strength of the chemical might eat up the rubber tubing inside the machine. Fabuloso might be OK, but those chemicals are meant to be diluted in water first before using.
Some machines also might react negatively to the solution - like using non Kirby brand shampoo in the Kirby shampooer will cause it to become a foamy nightmare. |

when you're through always run a little clear water through the machine and I also pour a little water and suck it up through nozzle, as they recommend. |

I like to finish cleaning a floor with my Bissell Crosswave by doing a final clear water rinse. This not only rinses the floor but also the brush and inner workings of the machine. I’ll still remove the brush and clean it on its own, but the final clear water rinse is a great help in keeping the Crosswave itself clean.

...do what the manufacturer asks. Most manuals are online if you don't have a paper copy. There is always: Google. |

Just using distilled water. My symphony only use distilled as anything can clog jets. It's all natural clean and distilled water won't clog anything. The tile I work with is white and symphony cleans up and it is still white no chemicals to build up or eat away flooring.
If you just try distilled water you will see. Les |
