Purchasing automated scrubbers can be expensive and should be thoroughly researched before purchase. The most important things to consider are the cleaning environment and the type of cleaning the unit performs. Automatic scrubber prices range from $ 1000 to $ 30,000. Purchasing an automatic scrubber can quickly make up for the purchase by reducing labor costs, but it can be expensive. The automatic scrubber can clean the floor 10 times faster than cleaning with a regular mop and bucket. The four main things you need to know when purchasing this type of floor equipment are the size, power, unit structure, and brush type required for the environment to be cleaned.
The first thing to check before buying is the size of the area you are cleaning. If the unit is too small, it will take extra time and will increase labor costs. If you purchase a scrubber that is too large for the environment, it is difficult to operate because it is being cleaned, and it may be difficult to clean efficiently. Most automatic scrubbers have a practical and theoretical cleaning time measured in square feet per hour in their specifications. When looking at these numbers, it is always advisable to choose the actual cleaning time per hour and reduce the number by 75%. By doing this, you can explain the obstacles that need to be avoided during cleaning, and explain how to fill and empty the unit. Most floor equipment dealers and manufacturers can test or demonstrate the machine in the area they want to clean. It is recommended that you ask your floor equipment dealer for testing before purchasing or signing documents related to machine sales.
Power is a very important attribute when selecting floor equipment. Power is related to automatic scrubbers in three ways. The number of batteries, the size of the battery, and the type of battery used by the machine. Most floor scrubbers combine a 6 or 12 volt battery to provide a 12, 24, or 36 volt electrical system. By comparison, a 36 volt electrical system takes longer to run between charges than a 12 volt system. If you are cleaning a large area, it is recommended that you use a longer voltage system to get additional runtime so that the area can be cleaned before the automatic scrubber is depleted. The average run time between automatic scrubber charges is 1.5 hours for a 12 volt system to 6 hours for a 36 volt system.
When purchasing an automatic scrubber, the type of floor equipment construction is an important factor. First, there are many types of materials that can create automatic scrubbers. The two most common types of plastic used in automatic scrubbers are ABS plastic and rotocast polyethylene. If you are planning a light cleaning with an automatic scrubber, you can save money by purchasing an ABS plastic machine. ABS plastic can be manufactured inexpensively, but it may crack if the unit hits an obstacle. Rotocast polyethylene is the best option if you are planning a strong commercial cleaning on your machine. This type of structure does not break or break even if it hits an obstacle or object. If you plan to maintain machine ownership for a long time, it is recommended to purchase a Rotocast polyethylene model. This is because it can withstand many years of punishment.
The final attribute to check when purchasing floor equipment such as automatic scrubbers is the type of brush used. The two main types of automatic scrubber brush systems are the cylindrical system and the traditional rotary style. Rotary brushes can help with the cleaning process by using many types of attachments, such as pad drivers, floor pads, powerful cleaning brushes, and grindstones for working on terrazzo and marble floors. Cylindrical systems excel at cleaning tile and VCT floors, but lack the versatility of traditional rotary systems that can use a variety of attachments. Cylindrical systems are also expensive to maintain and repair.
The most common type of automatic scrubber overall is a 20-inch wheel drive rotary system. Most US manufacturers make at least one model of this type of machine. The 20-inch automatic scrubber can clean both large and small areas and is inexpensive to maintain and repair. The most popular floor equipment manufacturers in the United States are Windsor, Tornado, Tenant and NSS. All four of these companies produce reliable models that can withstand the harsh use of at least 10 years in a commercial cleaning environment. When purchasing an automatic scrubber, it is important to amortize the cost of the unit over the period the unit is used. Once you have determined the depreciation unit cost, compare it to the labor saved in the same period. This can clearly indicate whether an automatic scrubber is required in the area being cleaned.
