Hoover®SteamVac™ has a powerful 12-amp motor and cleans carpets by applying, scrubbing, and removing hot tap water and cleaning solution. Five rotating patented SpinScrub™ brushes work together, scrubbing carpet fibers on all sides to loosen dirt, and pop out for easy cleaning. Heated cleaning forces hot air directly into the carpet, making the solution and brushes work more efficiently. The fingertip Clean Surge function comes in handy for spot and heavy-traffic areas, and the SpinScrub powered hand tool is great for cleaning upholstery and stairs.
