Steamvac RD5
Featuring a 2500PSI Italian-made pump and twin multi-stage 1200 watt motors to deliver 600PSI of working pressure, the Steamvac RD5 carpet extractor gives you exceptional cleaning power. Designed to fit into tight spaces, the 4-wheel castor system and 2 pneumatic tyres make it easy to wheel around, while a heavy-duty aluminium sub-frame and fibreglass body ensure years of reliable service.
- Vacuum Motors: The extractor is equipped with multi-stage motors that significantly increase water lift. This means carpets dry faster, allowing facilities to be back in use sooner after cleaning. The powerful motors ensure that extraction is thorough, removing more dirt and moisture with each pass.
- Pump PSI: The 2500PSI pump operates at a working pressure of 600PSI, delivering the cleaning solution with precision and force. The PSI, or pounds per square inch, is crucial as it determines the pressure at which the cleaning solution is applied. This model’s high PSI capability allows for deep penetration into carpet fibers, lifting stubborn dirt and grime effectively. Additionally, adjustable PSI settings provide the flexibility to cater to different fabric types and soil levels, ensuring optimal results without causing damage.

Understanding the Key Operational Differences Between Carpet Extractors and Carpet Cleaners
When deciding between a carpet extractor and a carpet cleaner, it’s essential to recognize that each operates distinctively, catering to different cleaning needs. Here’s how they differ:
Carpet Extractors
- Deep Cleaning Power: Carpet extractors are designed for deep cleaning. They target deeply embedded dirt and stains using an intense cleaning approach, making them ideal for heavy-duty needs.
- Advanced Water System: Equipped with large tanks, extractors often come with options to keep water and cleaning solutions heated consistently, enhancing cleaning efficiency.
- Pressurized Spray and Suction: These machines operate by deploying pressurized water into the carpet. The combination of pressure and suction effectively extracts both water and dirt, depositing them into a recovery tank.
- Commercial Use: Their robust construction makes extractors suitable for commercial environments like hotels and offices, where frequent and intensive cleaning is required.
Carpet Cleaners
- Surface Cleaning Focus: Carpet cleaners focus more on the surface of the carpet, efficiently removing everyday dirt and light stains, rather than deep-seated issues.
- Agitation and Water Detergent Mix: These devices use a combination of water, detergent, and mechanical action, such as brushes or pads, to dislodge dirt from the carpet fibers.
- Dual-Tank System: Typically, carpet cleaners include two tanks—one for clean water and detergent, and another for the resulting dirty water.
- Residential Use: Carpet cleaners are generally more suited for residential settings, providing effective cleaning for household carpets without the aggressive action needed in commercial areas.
In summary, while both carpet extractors and carpet cleaners excel in maintaining carpet hygiene, extractors offer a deeper clean suited for professional and commercial settings, whereas carpet cleaners are perfect for regular maintenance in homes.
This combination of high PSI and advanced motor technology provides a superior cleaning experience, making the Steamvac RD5 an ideal choice for both commercial and residential applications.
