New NSS COLT 1450P FMS Canister Vacuum
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Colt 1450 P FMS is the version to get if your crew strips floors or deals with water on big areas. FMS means front mount squeegee: a 27 in straight squeegee on the front of the cart, so the operator pushes the vacuum across the floor instead of working a hose and wand. NSS says that recovers liquid up to four times faster than a hose and squeegee tool, and it is easier on the operator's back. Underneath is the same Colt 1450 P that holds up to daily use: a 14.5 gal rotomolded polyethylene tank, a 1.23 hp two-stage bypass motor with 92 CFM and 84 in of water lift, and a float shut-off that protects the motor. When the tank is full, it pivots on the base so you can dump it into a drain or toilet without lifting. The power head can stand on its own to air-dry after wet work. It is a smart fit for schools, healthcare, building service contractors and maintenance shops. Hoses and tools are sold separately.”
A 14.5 gal wet/dry vacuum with a 27 in front mount squeegee
The NSS Colt 1450 P is a commercial wet/dry vacuum built around a 14.5 gal (55 L) rotomolded polyethylene tank. A 1.23 hp, 2-stage bypass motor pulls 92 CFM with 84 in of water lift, and a pivot on the base lets you tip the tank to dump into any drain, up to toilet height.
This FMS model adds the 27 in straight front mount squeegee. NSS says it recovers liquid up to four times faster than a hose and squeegee tool, which makes it a natural partner for floor stripping and flood clean-up.

Questions
NSS Colt 1450 P FMS: common questions
Does it come with a hose and tools?
No. NSS sells Colt tool kits separately, with more than 25 kits built from brass fittings, cast aluminum tools, steel wands and 10 ft superflex hoses. Tell us the job and we will help you pick the right kit.
What is the front mount squeegee for?
It lets you recover liquid over large floor areas by pushing the vacuum like a squeegee. NSS says it is up to four times faster than a hose and squeegee tool, so it is ideal for stripping jobs and flooded floors.
Can it pick up water and dry debris?
Yes. The Colt is a wet/dry vacuum. A float shut-off stops the airflow before water can reach the motor, and the cyclonic tank design keeps liquid and debris away from the motor.
How do I empty it?
The tank pivots on its base, so you can tip it and dump it into most drains and toilets instead of lifting it.
How loud is it?
NSS rates the Colt at 62 dBA, quiet enough for daytime cleaning.
