Commercial Cleaners
The average residential carpet cleaner is not designed for heavy-duty commercial use. For that, commercial cleaners use larger tanks, more power, and innovative cleaning procedures which reduce the wear and motor heat.
Commercial vacuum cleaners are often rated as such by Underwriters Laboratories, the country's leading standards commission for electrical appliances and tools. Many even carry certification from OSHA (The United States Occupational Health and Safety Administration), which marks them as outstanding performers in the category of workplace safety.
There are several leading makers of commercial carpet cleaner, including such well known names as Eureka, Hoover, and Oreck. Just a quick look at some of the most popular models from those companies is enough to give you a very good idea of what is available, and why one brand may be better for your needs than another.
Eureka SC6080
The Eureka SC6080 commercial carpet cleaner features a powerful 3 stage motor that delivers the suction you need consistently. The 9 gallon tank capacity means larger rooms can be done without stopping frequently to empty and refill. The 50 foot power cord gives an exceptional large radius for cleaning, and the cleaning is accomplished with up to 150 psi pumped through the 12 inch single jet cleaning wand. This model is packed with all of the features that people look for when they want to buy commercial steam cleaners.
Hoover SteamVac F5914-900
A Hoover SteamVac F5914-900 Steam Cleaner cleans all types of flooring and even upholstery, and it features Active Edge Cleaning. It features an 11 inch cleaning path and has a 27 foot power cord. This may be the most affordable commercial floor cleaner on the market, considering all that it offers.
Oreck XL Pro 14T
The Oreck XL Pro 14T commercial cleaner offers 1000 watts of power, and comes with a 50 foot cord. It is probably the most light commercial cleaner on the market, weighing in at a mere 19 pounds. It is designed to provide commercial quality cleaning without sacrificing residential portability.
Oreck XL Pro Orbiter
On the other hand, the Oreck XL Pro Orbiter strips waxes, buffs and sands, and can also be used for carpet cleaning. The specially designed oscillating motor and circular brushes allow you to reach all areas equally well, and it won't leave any brush marks or swirls on the foor, as many lower quality commercial cleaners have been reported to do.
