New Powr-Flite Mid-Size Carpet Extractor
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“A 10 gal mid-size extractor is the sweet spot for a lot of in-house carpet programs and smaller contract cleaners: big enough to clean an office suite, a church or a hotel corridor without constant refilling, small enough to load into a van and roll down a hallway. The PFX1080 fits that job. It carries 10 gal of solution and 8 gal of recovery, and the 100 psi pump paired with dual 2-stage vacuum motors gives you strong cleaning and water pickup, rated at 150 in of water lift. Faster-drying carpet means less downtime for the space you just cleaned. It runs on a single power cord, so you are not hunting for a second circuit, and the switches and pressure controls sit at the front where the operator can reach them. Large 10 in stair-climbing wheels and smaller transport wheels on the back make loading and unloading easier. It ships with a 20 ft vacuum hose with a built-in solution line and a 25 ft cord. Plan on adding a carpet wand or upholstery tool, since none is included.”
A 10 gal, 100 psi mid-size carpet extractor
The Powr-Flite PFX1080 is a non-heated, mid-size portable carpet extractor with a 10 gal solution tank and an 8 gal recovery tank. A 100 psi pump and dual 2-stage vacuum motors clean and pull water and soil out of the carpet, which Powr-Flite says helps extend carpet life and improve indoor air quality.
It needs only one power cord, has front-mounted switches and pressure controls, and rolls on large 10 in stair-climbing wheels. This is Powr-Flite model PFX1080.
Condition: New.
