Sandia 10-0812 100 PSI Replacement Pump for Sniper and Optimizer Extractors
When a Sandia extractor starts losing spray pressure, misting unevenly, or leaving lanes of carpet under-wetted, the pump is the first component to check. The Sandia 10-0812 is the genuine 100 psi replacement pump fitted to Sandia Sniper 6-gallon and Sniper and Optimizer 12-gallon portable carpet extractors. Carpet cleaning contractors and auto detailers install this pump to bring a hard-worked machine back to factory spray performance for a fraction of the cost of a new extractor.
Use Cases
- Restoring solution pressure on a Sandia Sniper 86-2100 6-gallon extractor that has faded after seasons of daily use.
- Rebuilding a Sniper 80-2100 or Optimizer 66-2100 12-gallon machine before the busy spring cleaning season.
- Keeping a backup pump on the truck so a mid-job pump failure does not cost a day of scheduled work.
- Auto detailing shops running 6-gallon automotive extractors through multiple interiors a day, where consistent 100 psi spray keeps chemical dwell and rinse predictable.
- Restoration and janitorial crews that maintain their own extractor fleet in-house instead of sending machines out for service.

Sandia Warranty
Sandia backs its 100 psi pumps with a 2-year warranty, the strongest coverage in its parts line. Vacuum motors also carry 2-year coverage, other pumps carry 1 year, and parts, tools, and accessories carry 90 days. The warranty does not cover failures caused by improper or missing maintenance, misuse, tampering, substitution of parts, storage in freezing conditions, or running the pump dry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which machines does the Sandia 10-0812 fit?
It is the standard 100 psi pump used across Sandia Sniper 6-gallon and Sniper and Optimizer 12-gallon portable extractors. Check the pump rating on your model - machines built with 200 or 500 psi pumps use a different part.
How do I know the pump is the problem and not a clog?
Before replacing the pump, clear the spray jets, check the inline filter, and confirm the solution tank screen is clean. If pressure is still weak or pulsing with clean jets and full tanks, the pump has usually worn out.
Is this pump covered by warranty?
Yes. Sandia covers 100 psi pumps for 2 years against defects. Freeze damage and running the pump dry are not covered, so winterize the machine and never run it with an empty solution tank.
Can I replace the pump myself?
Most owners can. The pump is accessible with basic hand tools - unplug the machine, drain both tanks, disconnect the solution lines and wiring, and swap the unit. Photograph connections before removal to make reassembly straightforward.
