New Tornado Cascade 20 Recycling Carpet Extractor
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Cascade 20 is a different kind of carpet extractor, and it is worth understanding before you compare it to a standard self-contained unit. Tornado built it around a patented vacuum shoe and a rapid recovery process that atomizes the cleaning solution and controls how much moisture goes into the carpet. The result Tornado describes is deep-cleaned carpet that dries much faster than with traditional extraction, while using less water and chemical. Faster drying also means less chance of mold, fungus and lingering odors, which matters in hotels, healthcare buildings and offices that need the space back quickly. It is self-propelled in forward, has 25 gal solution and recovery tanks, a 20 in cleaning width and up to 400 psi of solution pressure. With optional hand and floor tools it also cleans upholstery, fabric partitions, and even grouted tile and walls. It weighs 124 lb, so plan on a ramp or lift gate for moving it between sites. For large carpet programs where dry time is the real constraint, this is the machine to look at.”
A recycling carpet extractor built for fast drying
The Tornado Cascade 20 is a self-propelled recycling carpet extractor with a 20 in cleaning width, 25 gal solution and recovery tanks and up to 400 psi of solution pressure. A patented vacuum shoe and a rapid recovery process atomize the carpet solution and control moisture.
Tornado says the system reduces organic material in the carpet, minimizes odors and delivers deep-cleaned carpets with shorter drying times than traditional extractors, while using less water and chemical.
