The new CPS 55 EVO has finally arrived on the market: the professional scrubber dryer by Comet is ideal for cleaning medium-sized areas.

Available from March 2025 at the Italian top dealers specializing in the sale of professional cleaning machines, this very compact man-behind scrubber dryer has three distinguishing features: easy, intuitive and high-performance.

Let’s find out, then, all its details and pluses. Not before recapitulating how it works and what the benefits of using a scrubber dryer are.

 

HOW A FLOOR SCRUBBER DRYER WORKS

The scrubber dryer is the most effective tool for professionally cleaning and sanitizing floors: a machine designed to quickly wash and dry all indoor and outdoor floors (with the exception of carpeting, natural wood parquet and suspended floors, abrasive materials and uneven surfaces).

It consists of a washing body and roller discs or brushes that rotate as they are sprayed with a water-detergent solution. This is the part that actually cleans the floor, followed by a collection and suction system which, with the help of a rubber blade, collects the dirty water without leaving any residue on the floor.

Scrubber dryers are powered by an electric motor, corded to an outlet or equipped with a battery pack. A further and more important distinction should be made between man-behind and ride-on scrubber dryers, depending on how they are driven: the former are pushed from the rear by special handles, the latter are equipped with a seat to carry an operator and a steering wheel to be maneuvered.

The choice between the two types is related to the size of the floor to be cleaned: man-behind ones are more compact, thus suitable for small areas and confined spaces; ride-on ones, which are larger and more powerful, are more suitable for larger and more spacious areas.

In both cases, however, the scrubber dryer is a must-have for the routine and repeated cleaning of spaces open to the public, being able to wash in a short time and leave the floor immediately dry and sanitized, in one go and without the slightest effort.

In addition to a level of hygiene unmatched by mops and rags, safety is an important plus that comes with the use of a scrubber dryer, as it can be used without fencing the area to the public and, at the same time, eliminating the risk of dangerous slips and accidents.

Saving water and detergent increases the number of advantages of scrubber dryers: an automatic scrubber uses detergent in a concentrated manner, maximizing the yield of the cleaning solution with a comparison to traditional methods estimated at 0.05 versus 0.5 liters for cleaning 10 square meters.
