The Hydro-Force Olympus 1200 PSI portable extractor is the workhorse most commercial carpet cleaners eventually settle on after burning through entry-level portables. Dual 3-stage vac motors, a 1200 PSI heavy-duty pump, auto fill and auto pump out, and 12-gallon roto-molded tanks let one operator run a full eight-hour route without unloading at every job. Built for daily route work in hotels, healthcare, schools, and rental restoration.
Built for daily commercial route work
Olympus owners in the IICRC and Cleanfax forum communities consistently report this machine handles 5-10 commercial accounts a day without overheating - the cavity ventilation design that keeps the dual motors cool is the reason. Compared with a 500 PSI single-motor portable, the 1200 PSI Olympus cuts pre-spray dwell-time short, lifts ground-in soil in one pass instead of two, and dries carpets fast enough that hotel rooms can re-rent the same day.
Use cases
- Hotel and hospitality route work - auto fill from a building tap and auto pump out to floor drain mean longer runs with no breaks for filling and dumping.
- Restaurant carpet and entry mats - 1200 PSI punches through grease and food soil that overwhelm lighter machines.
- Multi-family turnovers - twelve-gallon waste tank covers an entire 2-bedroom unit without dumping mid-job.
- Restoration pre-cleaning - dual 3-stage vacs pull standing water from over-wet carpet during loss mitigation.
- Truck-mount backup - many owners keep an Olympus on the van as a backup for when the truck-mount is down for service.

Frequently asked questions
What size cleaning jobs is the Olympus 1200 designed for?
The Olympus 1200 is sized for daily commercial carpet cleaning - hotels, restaurants, schools, multi-family housing, and route truck-based residential work. Twelve-gallon solution and waste tanks plus auto fill/auto pump out keep you cleaning while a helper handles the truck or a building tap, and the dual 3-stage vac motors deliver 200+ inches of water lift so carpet dries fast enough for same-day re-occupancy.
How is the Olympus different from a 500 PSI portable extractor?
A 500 PSI portable maxes out on light maintenance soil. The Olympus 1200 PSI pump punches through traffic lanes, restaurant grease, and ground-in protein soil that 500 PSI machines simply walk over. The dual vac motors also pull substantially more air than a single-motor 3-stage, which is why Olympus owners consistently report shorter dry times in forums and trade groups.
Do I need a 220V circuit to run this machine?
No - the Olympus 1200 runs on standard 115V power and ships with pigtail cord connections so each motor can be on its own 20A circuit when needed. That is the practical reality of running dual vacs and a 1200 PSI pump on common building power without tripping breakers.
What is the warranty on the tanks and frame?
The roto-molded tank body carries a 5-year warranty. Vac motors and the pump follow standard Hydro-Force component warranties. Authorized dealer support and parts inventory are handled in-house at Discount Cleaning Products - no third-party parts hunt if something fails in service.
