New HOST Freestyle extractorVAC
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Freestyle is the HOST machine for a facility that wants one tool for carpet care: vacuuming, pile lifting, spot and traffic lane cleaning, routine maintenance and deep cleaning. It works with HOST Dry Extraction Cleaner, which is brushed into the carpet and vacuumed back up, so the carpet goes back into service with absolutely no drying time. Two 12 in counter-rotating brushes running at 360 rpm under load lift matted pile and dislodge soil from the fibers, and a 130 CFM vacuum motor collects the spent cleaner into a bagless hopper that slides out to empty in seconds. The vacuum pod detaches from the base for detail work under desks and tables, and the base unit handles carpeted and rubberized stairs. With the right brushes it also cleans grouted tile and textured floors. At 58 lb, with a 40 ft cord and a drive-on, drive-off caddy, it is easy to take from building to building. If you only need pile lifting and spot work and already own a good vacuum, look at the Reliant. For larger commercial programs, the Liberator adds a wider head and onboard tool storage.”
One machine to vacuum, lift pile and dry extract carpet
The HOST Freestyle extractorVAC is a dry extraction carpet machine for small commercial and residential settings. Used with HOST Dry Extraction Cleaner, it vacuums, lifts pile, cleans spots and traffic areas, and handles routine maintenance or deep extraction cleaning, with no drying time.
Two 12 in (30.5 cm) counter-rotating brushes revive matted traffic lanes, and a 130 CFM vacuum motor with 6-stage fine particulate filtration picks up the cleaner and soil. It comes with a wheeled storage caddy, filters and two white standard nylon brushes.

Questions
HOST Freestyle: common questions
Is there any drying time?
No. The Freestyle works with HOST Dry Extraction Cleaner, which is brushed in and vacuumed back up, so carpet can be used right away.
Do I still need a separate vacuum?
No. The Freestyle has its own 130 CFM vacuum motor and bagless hopper, so it vacuums and dry extracts in one machine.
Can it clean stairs?
Yes. The vacuum pod and handle detach from the base brush unit so it can clean carpeted and rubberized stairs.
Can it clean hard floors?
HOST says it is excellent for grouted tile and textured floors. HOST offers red firm nylon brushes for grouted tile.
Which brushes come with it?
Two 12 in white standard nylon brushes for commercial nylon and other fibers. Soft, semi-soft, firm and grout brushes are available separately.
