New Onyx Hero R25 25 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuum
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Hero R25 is a commercial wet/dry vacuum built for larger cleaning jobs, and its biggest strength is capacity. The 25-gallon tank means fewer trips to empty it, which saves real time when you're picking up water from a flooded area or following behind a floor scrubber.
Power comes from a 1.7 HP, 1250W motor that handles both wet and dry debris. A few features set it apart from a standard shop vac. The 29-inch cleaning path with a built-in squeegee lets you clear water in wide passes rather than working spot by spot. Dual LED headlights help in dim hallways and back rooms, and the 50-foot cord covers a good amount of ground before you need to switch outlets.
There are trade-offs. A full 25-gallon tank of water is heavy, the cord still ties you to an outlet on larger jobs, and the overall size is more than most homes or small offices need.
A solid, practical choice for custodial teams and facilities with large floor areas. For light-duty or occasional use, a smaller unit will likely serve you better.”
A true 25-gallon recovery tank.
The Onyx HERO R25 is a corded wet/dry vacuum with a true 25-gallon (94.6 L) recovery tank and a 29-inch front-mount squeegee. Onyx rates the vacuum motor at 1250 W (1.7 HP) on 110-120 V, and it runs on a 50-foot, 14/3 SJTOW power cord.
The vacuum entrance sits at the top of the motor head, above the water line, and an internal foam filter helps keep water and foam out of the motor. A 4-inch tip-and-pour opening and a 1.5-inch drain hose make the tank easy to empty. An accessory tool kit is available separately.
