The Sandia Optimizer 300 PSI 12-gallon carpet extractor with heat is built for cleaning contractors and facility crews who want truck-mount-level deep cleaning in a portable machine. Its dual 2-stage 6.6-inch vacuum motors deliver strong sealed suction and fast solution recovery, so carpet rinses cleaner and dries faster between jobs.
Built for deep commercial carpet cleaning
This extractor is aimed at users who clean carpet for a living and need power, capacity, and reliable recovery. Common use cases include:
- Restoration and janitorial crews deep-cleaning office, hospitality, and retail carpet
- Apartment turnovers and large residential jobs where drying time matters
- High-traffic commercial accounts that need truck-mount-style results without parking a rig outside
- Encapsulation and hot-water extraction with the in-line heat for tougher soils
The 300 PSI demand pump drives solution deep into carpet fibers, while the 215-inch water lift pulls it back out, lifting embedded dirt other portables leave behind. Sandia rates these 6.6-inch motors as roughly 42 percent more efficient than a comparable 3-stage 500 PSI extractor, so crews get more sealed suction at a lower amp draw.
Heat and motor longevity
The in-line heater raises solution temperature for better cleaning on grease and traffic lanes. Thermal-protected, sealed motors with Sandia's Eternity Brush System are designed for roughly three times longer brush life, and the air-intake design keeps the motors running cool to prevent overheating during long jobs.

Frequently asked questions
Does this really clean like a truck mount?
It is designed to approach truck-mount cleaning performance in a portable. The dual 2-stage 6.6-inch motors and 215-inch water lift recover solution efficiently, which is what drives deeper cleaning and faster drying, though a true truck mount still offers more raw power for very large jobs.
Do I need two outlets to run it?
Yes. It uses two 25-foot cords, so plan to plug the motors into separate circuits to avoid tripping a breaker, which is standard practice for dual-motor portable extractors.
What does the heat add?
The in-line heater warms the solution, which improves cleaning on grease and heavily soiled traffic lanes. Heat is most useful on commercial carpet and restoration work.
How long will the carpet take to dry?
Because the 215-inch water lift recovers more solution, carpet generally dries faster than with lower-suction portables. Actual dry time depends on carpet type, airflow, and humidity.
