Description
Large commercial shop vacuums are too bulky to store on mobile janitorial carts or transport in small maintenance vehicles. The Lavex 5 Gallon Poly Commercial Wet / Dry Vacuum with Toolkit delivers powerful wet and dry pickup in a compact, durable format. It holds 5 Gallons under 1200 Watt power. Canister capacity requires frequent dumping on large spills.
The recovery canister uses high-density injection-molded polyethylene that resists impact fractures from dropped tools and rejects caustic cleaning chemicals. A commercial 1200 Watt vacuum motor delivers strong suction velocity through an oversized motor housing with sound-dampening foam. Four swiveling ball casters mount to an integrated wide base to provide roll stability across low-pile commercial carpet.
Compact Custodial Cleanup Hardware System
A lightweight poly profile lets facility caretakers move vacuum power between office suites and public restrooms without wall scuffs. The full toolkit equips operators for wet water extraction and detail furniture dusting.
- 5 Gallon high-density poly canister resists cracking from rough handling and dropped maintenance tools.
- 1200 Watt commercial vacuum motor generates strong suction for rapid spill cleanup across hard floors.
- Four-caster wide base design rolls smooth across door thresholds without tipping over.
- Washable cloth filter captures dry construction dust while a foam sleeve manages wet slurry pickup.
- Complete commercial toolkit includes a flexible suction hose, extension wands, squeegee, and crevice tool.
- Large top carry handle balances empty machine weight for carrying up commercial staircases.
- Molded on-board tool storage slots keep wands and specialty nozzles organized during transport.
Electrical Load Vacuum Bench Telemetry
Pulling water through the squeegee nozzle draws 10.0 Amps from a standard 120 Volt electrical outlet. Motor casing temperature stabilizes at 128°F after 30 minutes of continuous carpet extraction work. The vacuum motor delivers 78 inches of waterlift suction at 90 CFM airflow. Operating sound emissions register an ultra-quiet 72 dBA at five feet.
Custodial Application Bounds Field Directives
Office cleaners, retail store staff, and small apartment maintenance crews handle daily messes fast with this compact poly vacuum. Do not use this vacuum for massive basement flood water removal because small tank volume requires constant dumping. Never vacuum hot fireplace embers or combustible paint overspray.
- Rinse collected dirt and chemical residue from the poly tank with clean water after each shift.
- Clean the cloth filter bag with compressed air and inspect for fabric tears every 20 hours of dry use.
- Check the power cord plug prongs for bends or loose ground pins before every use.
