An autoscrubber is an automated cleaning machine used to clean floors. It is equipped with a water tank, rotating brushes and a suction system that allow deep cleaning of floors.

Yes. In fact, several names are given to these devices. The most common would probably be the name ''Zamboni floor''. Whether we are talking about an autoscrubber, a floor washer or a zamboni, it is the same device. The autoscrubber of its real name is in fact a combination of three or even four devices (the mop, a floor brush, a vacuum cleaner and a squeejee).

An autoscrubber works by spraying water and cleaning solution onto the floor, then using rotating brushes to scrub and loosen dirt. The dirty water is then sucked up and stored in a recovery tank.

Autoscrubbers can be used on a variety of floors, including tile, stone, concrete, and vinyl floors.

Autoscrubbers come in a range of different sizes, from handheld machines for small areas to larger machines for commercial and industrial areas.

Regular maintenance of an autoscrubber consists of regularly emptying and cleaning clean and dirty water tanks, cleaning brushes and hoses, replacing filters and checking fluid levels.

Autoscrubbers use less water than manual cleaning. They are equipped with a dirty water collection system, which means that they only use the amount of water necessary to clean the surface.

The time needed to clean a surface depends on its size and the size of the machine used. However, autoscrubbers are generally faster than manual cleaning and can clean large areas in a relatively short time.

Autoscrubbers are environmentally friendly because they use less water and cleaners than manual cleaning. This reduces the amount of chemicals that enter the environment.

The life of an autoscrubber depends on the quality of the machine and the maintenance it receives. Top quality machines can last up to 10 years or more with regular maintenance.
