The Sandia Sniper 80-3500 is a 12-gallon carpet extractor with a 500 PSI adjustable pump and dual 3-stage vacuum motors, built for cleaning contractors who want high solution pressure for deep extraction across a wide range of carpet. The adjustable pump lets crews dial pressure to the job, and the large tanks keep them cleaning longer between dumps.
Built for deep, high-pressure extraction
The 80-3500 suits cleaners who tackle heavily soiled and commercial carpet:
- Restoration and janitorial crews on glue-down and high-traffic commercial carpet
- Apartment turns and large residential jobs needing strong rinse pressure
- Accounts where adjustable pressure (100, 200, 300, or 500 PSI) helps match carpet type
- Crews who want big-tank capacity to reduce fill-and-dump downtime
The 500 PSI pump drives solution deep into fibers, and dual 3-stage vacuum motors deliver up to 205 inches of water lift for efficient recovery and faster drying. An innovative air-intake design pulls cool outside air over the motors to reduce temperature and prevent overheating during long jobs.
Built to work hard and stay protected
Roto-molded polyethylene solution and recovery tanks resist dents in tough environments, and 12-gallon capacity speeds fill and dump. Waist-high recessed controls prevent bending and stooping and stay protected in use, transit, and storage. Ten-inch non-skid, non-marking wheels make stair climbing easy without scuffing floors. The machine weighs about 131 pounds. This is the non-heated configuration.

Frequently asked questions
Why would I want an adjustable pump?
Adjustable pressure lets you use lower PSI on delicate or residential carpet and full 500 PSI on heavily soiled commercial glue-down. One machine covers more carpet types without over-wetting delicate fibers.
Does this model have heat?
No. The 80-3500 is the non-heated configuration. If you need heated solution for grease and traffic lanes, choose a heated Sniper model instead.
How many outlets does it need?
It uses two 25-foot cords, so plug the motors into separate circuits to avoid tripping a breaker, which is standard for dual-motor extractors.
Is it hard to move and store?
Ten-inch non-skid wheels make stair climbing manageable, and the roto-molded tanks and recessed controls are built to survive transport and storage. At about 131 pounds it is a full-size portable, so plan for two-person loading when needed.
