I would say 1000, but the StonePro guy I talked to suggested 500 psi following a pre-scrub. So that's what we do.

I normally go with 350 psi for carpet and
700 for T&G.

I think it really depends on the type of carpet and soiling conditions. If you're cleaning lightly soiled carpet IMO you don't need 500psi i clean at around 250-350 on an average.
