2" hose is best used only by those machines that can develope 200 cfms or more. Above this range, it is less restrictive to flow, and helps. Using it on equipment with less than this slows the airflow down and gives worse performance when the water soil mix falls out of the airstrem and puddles into the hose. Net effect is very wet carpets and all the problems that comes with it.
