At its core, the Gran Prix II HP120 boasts a 1,200-watt REAL HEAT system, generating water temperatures up to 210°F to dissolve grease, dirt, and stubborn stains with ease.

Everyday users will appreciate the straightforward operation: fill the tank, plug in the 25-foot cord, and let the heat and suction do the work. The high drain valve simplifies emptying into a bucket, and the Heatguard hose wrap (crafted from neoprene wetsuit material) enhances durability and safety.
