Hard floor cleaners are some of the most versatile pieces of equipment for cleaning large areas. Such machines are used for cleaning floors and walls comprised of a wide variety of different materials. Even carpets and upholstery can be cleaned with the right tools. Because hard surface cleaners often have pressure washing capabilities, these machines may be used for removing dirt and grease from granite, metal, ceramic tile, concrete and other hard surfaces, in addition to floors and walls. Cleaning Floors and Walls The motorized spinning head runs over the hard surface to remove the toughest dirt. Standard hard floor cleaners have non-motorized spinners that depend solely on water pressure force, which is insufficient for cleaning. Water pressure may not be consistent resulting in uneven cleaning and limited cleaning power, with a loss in water pressure of up to 500 psi. Therefore, purchase only hard floor cleaners featuring motorized spinners, which offer powerful and effective cleaning without a loss in cleaning power or water pressure. Effective for remove dirt, grime, and other residues from stone, vinyl flooring, VCT, rubber floors, walls, marble, limestone, quarry, concrete, travertine, Mexican tile, cement, pavers, brick, driveways, parking lots, sidewalks, walkways, and more, top hard surface cleaning machines can also remove layers of finish or wax from large surfaces. This floor cleaning equipment also makes a perfect tile and grout cleaner, removing soap scum, caked on dirt, mold, and grease. Hard floor cleaners have different spinner diameters for covering small and expansive surfaces. A 19-inch spinner covers large floors indoors and outdoors, while spinners that are less than 10 inches in diameter are used for smaller floors and wall surfaces indoors. The variety in size and types of attachments of floor scrubbers facilitate cleaning every inch of the surface. The buyer may also purchase squeegee wands in different sizes to clean walls and floors. These wall and floor scrubbers may have as many as six jets for even water spray and fast cleaning. The long wand allows the user to reach far under tables and high spots on walls when cleaning. Upholstery Cleaning Hard floor cleaner machines are non-heated machines, but they can support the addition of heated water at temperatures up to 210F. Hot water is very effective in removing dirt, grime, grease, molds, stains, embedded food residue, pet hair, and odor from carpets. Though not a standard part, users do have the option to purchase an additional carpet wand for use with the floor cleaning machine. The addition of the optional carpet wand enables use of the machine as a carpet extractor, ideal for cleaning carpets with pressure levels up to 500 psi. The optional upholstery wand can provide additional cleaning benefits when cleaning within the hard-to-reach areas of upholstered furniture. Additionally, high capacity tile and grout cleaner machines have solution and recovery tanks, which average 13-15 gallons in size. Suction force is maintained and is capable of water lift of 150 inches and continuous operating ability is maintained by features such as auto fill and auto dump. Pressure Washing Pressure washing is maintained through the pressure washer machines' high pressure levels (up to 1500 psi, adjustable). To utilize the power of these machines for pressure washing, top suppliers offer an optional pressure wand. Paired with extended pressure hoses, users can reach and tackle demanding pressure washing applications. When selecting hard floor cleaners or floor scrubbers, ensure all the required attachments for floor cleaning, wall cleaning, scrubbing, upholstery cleaning, and pressure washing applications that you plan to take on are available. Use appropriate pressure levels for different applications: no more than 500 psi for upholstery cleaning and carpet cleaning. Pressure levels between 700 psi and 1500 psi are suitable for pressure washing. Hard floor cleaning machines have many applications in commercial and industrial areas and they offer plenty of value for the money, which is why more contractors are turning to these versatile machines for multiple cleaning applications.
