EDIC carpet cleaners provide commercial cleaning crews with a self-contained machine that cleans carpet and upholstery in a single pass. The EDIC Galaxy series leads this lineup. It pairs portable extractors with dual vacuum motors, adjustable PSI settings, and stainless steel tanks to deliver the extraction output that janitorial and restoration operators depend on.
EDIC carpet extractors run a self-contained system — pump, vacuum, and solution delivery in one portable unit — so operators cover more floor without hauling extra equipment. Each machine uses brush agitation to clean carpets at the fiber level, paired with a strong water lift that pulls dirt to the surface for full extraction.
The Galaxy series forms the core of the EDIC carpet extractor lineup. These units run on 3-stage vac motor systems that generate the CFM output and water lift needed to work deep into carpet fibers, not just skim the surface. Tank capacity also reaches 17 gallons on larger models, extending run time across wide commercial floors between empty cycles.
The Galaxy Pro 2700 features adjustable solution pressure and a dual-motor configuration, making it a reliable cleaning machine for hotels, offices, and restoration sites.
Perfect for:
Not ideal for:
High-volume commercial contracts with thousands of square feet of heavily soiled carpet per visit. At that scale, you want more tank capacity and a higher-output heating system.
If you're past the startup phase and running a crew, you're probably thinking about capacity, specifically, how many jobs can you knock out before you stop to dump and refill tanks.
Mid-range portables in the 12 to 17-gallon fresh water and recovery tank range hit that sweet spot between portability and production.
Look for machines that specify dual 3-stage or dual 2-stage vacuum motors, since those ratings directly affect your wet-lift performance on thicker-pile carpet.
A single-motor unit may handle area rugs well, but on dense commercial carpet, it'll leave moisture behind, which means longer dry times and unhappy clients.
Perfect for:
Not ideal for:
Solo operators who need a compact unit they can carry up stairs alone. A fully loaded 12-gallon machine can weigh up to 80 lbs.
Select Galaxy models accept an external heater that raises the solution temperature for faster soil breakdown on heavily trafficked carpet. Heated portable carpet extractors reduce dwell time and cut the number of passes needed for stubborn stains.
These EDIC extractors support a full range of accessories that attach directly to the unit:

A 17-gallon self-contained carpet extractor gives operators extended run time on wide-area floors. Larger tanks reduce interruptions during full-day jobs in hotels, offices, and restoration sites.
A 3-stage vac motor produces high CFM airflow and water lift to pull embedded dirt from deep carpet fibers. More stages generate stronger suction, improving results on heavily soiled commercial carpet.
Yes. Attach an upholstery-cleaning tool or detail wand, and the machine transitions from carpet to fabric surfaces such as seating, vehicle interiors, and stairs without additional equipment.
Heat-ready units accept an external heater that raises the solution temperature, breaking down soils faster. This cuts dwell time and delivers cleaner results in fewer passes on commercial carpet.
Hot water extraction performs best when the water temperature at the carpet surface is between 150°F and 200°F.
Most portable extractors with onboard heaters can hit that range, though heat loss through longer hose runs is real - expect a measurable drop at 50 feet of hose.
That's why machines with dedicated heating elements matter on jobs where a truckmount isn't an option.
It holds up well. The Galaxy runs a 500 PSI adjustable pump with dual 2-stage vacuums, delivering solid water pressure and strong recovery in a single machine.
The right choice depends entirely on your job type and access.
Truckmounts are faster and hotter for open commercial spaces.
But here's the thing: plenty of professional-grade portables with onboard heat handle multi-unit residential and healthcare facilities, and stair access better than a truckmount ever could.
If your work is varied, a portable extractor gives you options a truckmount simply can't.
Absolutely.
