The Sandia Sniper 80-2300-H is a 12-gallon heated carpet extractor with a 300 PSI adjustable pump and dual 2-stage vacuum motors, built for cleaning crews that run long jobs and want hot-water performance without a truck mount. The large tanks and strong recovery make it a workhorse for apartment turns, offices, and restoration where filling, dumping, and dry time all eat into the day.
Built for
- Carpet cleaning contractors - 300 PSI hot extraction lifts traffic-lane soil on residential and commercial carpet.
- Apartment turns and property management - 12-gallon tanks mean fewer fill-and-dump trips per unit.
- Offices and hospitality - strong recovery shortens dry time so spaces reopen sooner.
- Restoration crews - high water lift pulls more moisture for faster drying.
Hot water, big tanks, strong lift
An adjustable 300 PSI pump lets you dial pressure to the carpet, while the 2,000-watt in-line heater raises solution temperature up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit to dissolve oils and ground-in soil. Dual 2-stage vacuum motors deliver up to 205 inches of water lift for thorough extraction and faster drying, and the 12-gallon solution and recovery tanks are roto-molded polyethylene that resists cracks, chips, and dents. Waist-high recessed controls keep operation comfortable and safe, and 10-inch non-marking wheels roll over floors and stairs without scuffing.

Frequently asked questions
What does the heater add over a cold-water extractor?
The 2,000-watt in-line heater warms solution up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, which dissolves oils and traffic-lane soil faster so carpet rinses cleaner and dries with less residue than cold-water cleaning.
Why does water lift matter?
The dual 2-stage motors produce up to 205 inches of water lift, which pulls more moisture back out of the carpet. Better recovery means shorter dry times and less risk of wicking or mold.
How big a job can the 12-gallon tanks handle?
The 12-gallon solution and recovery tanks let you clean larger areas between fill and dump cycles, cutting downtime on apartment turns and big commercial floors.
What power does it need?
The 80-2300-H requires two 20-amp outlets - one for the vacuum motors and one for the heater and pump - so plan to plug into two separate circuits to avoid tripping breakers.
Is it comfortable to operate for long shifts?
Yes. The recessed, waist-high controls eliminate stooping, and 10-inch non-skid, non-marking wheels make it easy to roll between rooms and up stairs without scuffing floors.
