Bissell Dirty Water Tank As...
$16.99
Product details
Everything the Little Green Machine pulls up during a cleaning pass, water, lifted stains, and pet mess, ends up in this dirty water tank assembly, part 164-2982, which keeps recovered liquid sealed away from the clean solution side of the machine.
Bissell lists part 164-2982 for the 3908, 3909 and 39071. A recovery tank on a portable gives out in a small number of ways: a corner cracked after one too many knocks, a lid that stops closing down evenly, or a seal gone flat that no longer holds vacuum. Each of those reads the same way at the carpet, as weaker pickup and water left sitting on the surface instead of ending up in the tank.
- Part: 164-2982 dirty water tank assembly
- Fits: Bissell Little Green Machine, models 3908, 3909 and 39071
- Function: holds recovered water and debris separately from the clean tank
Turn the unit over, read the model number printed on it, and check that against the list above before ordering part 164-2982.
Empty and rinse the tank you have before you order, so you can see where it is actually giving up: a seal that no longer springs back when pressed, a lid that will not sit flush, or a split in the tank body. Matching the failure you can see to the part you order is the quickest way to be sure this is the right fix rather than a second trip.
