Carpet Cleaners

You manage a hotel corridor, a school hallway, or a busy office floor, and standard vacuums just aren’t cutting it anymore. Commercial Cleaning Depot carries professional carpet cleaners built for exactly that reality. You’ll find high-performance box extractors, self-contained units, spot extractors, and walk-behind scrubbers from trusted brands like EDIC, Sandia, Namco Manufacturing, and Hawk Enterprises. Units range from 100-500 PSI and 3-17-gallon tank capacities, covering everything from spot treatment to large-area extraction. Whether you manage a hotel, school, office building, or healthcare facility, our machines are built for daily commercial use, not occasional residential jobs.

Why Choose Our Commercial Carpet Cleaners

Our professional-grade carpet cleaners are designed to tackle the toughest cleaning challenges:

High suction lift: Motors delivering 120-200 inches of water lift pull deeply embedded debris that standard vacuums leave behind.
Heated extraction option: Machines with onboard heaters (e.g., EDIC heated models) raise solution temperature to improve grease and protein-stain breakdown without added chemicals.
Adjustable PSI: Pressure settings from 45 PSI (spot extractors) to 500 PSI (box extractors) let operators match machine output to carpet pile and soil level.
Large-capacity tanks: 12-17-gallon fresh/waste tank configurations reduce refill stops during extended cleaning runs in large commercial spaces.

If you’re tackling deeply embedded grime or high-volume restoration jobs, our heavy-duty carpet cleaner machines offer the power and capacity required for the toughest environments.

Types of Commercial Carpet Cleaners We Offer

Box Carpet Extractors

Box extractors like the EDIC Galaxy series combine powerful motors with large-capacity tanks for extended cleaning sessions. With options ranging from 12 to 17-gallon capacity and pressure settings from 220 to 500 PSI, these machines provide exceptional cleaning performance for large commercial spaces.

Spot Extractors

Designed for precision in high-traffic zones, spills, and stubborn stains, our portable spot extractors make targeted cleaning easy. The Hawk Hot Shot Mini-Vactor features a 3-gallon capacity and delivers 45 PSI of focused power, ideal for upholstery and localized carpet care.

Self-Contained Carpet Cleaner Extractors

Self-contained models typically operate at 100-150 PSI with integrated brush rolls rotating at 200-600 RPM, making them the fastest single-operator solution for open-plan office and hotel corridor cleaning.

Walk-behind carpet scrubbers suit wide-aisle commercial spaces where consistent, pass-by-pass agitation is preferred over extraction-first methods.

Choosing the Right Commercial Carpet Cleaner

When selecting a carpet cleaner for your facility, consider,

Traffic volume: High-traffic zones (lobbies, corridors) need machines with 300 PSI or more and 12-gallon tanks or larger. Moderate-traffic areas can use self-contained units at 100- 150 PSI.
Area size: For spaces over 5,000 sq ft, choose a box extractor with a large-capacity tank to minimize downtime. Spot extractors suit areas under 500 sq ft or targeted stain work.
Heat requirement: Facilities dealing with food service, grease, or protein-based soiling benefit from heated extractors. Unheated units suffice for general office carpet maintenance.
Portability needs: Portable spot extractors (under 20 lbs) move between rooms without effort. Truck-mount-style box extractors stay stationary and feed hose to the work area.
Carpet type: Low-pile commercial carpet tolerates higher PSI. Berber and loop-pile carpets require lower pressure (100- 200 PSI) and softer brush settings to avoid fibre damage.

Our expert staff can help you choose the right carpet cleaning equipment for your needs, ensuring professional results while maximizing your investment in quality cleaning machinery.

Frequently Asked Question

What PSI do I need for commercial carpet cleaning?

Commercial carpets typically require 200-00 PSI for effective deep cleaning, with higher PSI needed for heavily soiled areas and ground-in stains.

How often should commercial carpets be professionally cleaned?

Commercial carpets in high-traffic areas should be professionally cleaned every 3 - 6 months, while moderate-traffic areas benefit from cleaning every 6 - 12 months.

Can carpet extractors also clean upholstery?

Yes, many of our extractors work for carpets and upholstery, with adjustable pressure settings to clean different fabric types safely.

What is the difference between a box extractor and a self-contained carpet cleaner?

Box extractors offer larger tanks and higher pressure, while self-contained units integrate brushes and extraction in one machine for easier operation.

Do heated carpet extractors clean better than unheated models?

Yes, heated extractors dissolve grease and tough stains more effectively by warming the cleaning solution, resulting in deeper cleaning performance.

How long does carpet take to dry after commercial extraction?

Commercial carpets typically dry in 2- 6 hours after hot-water extraction, depending on airflow, humidity, and pile depth. Running air movers or increasing HVAC circulation after cleaning accelerates drying and reduces slip risk.
