We designed the PowerDash Pet Hard Floor Cleaner specifically for hard floor surfaces. We do not recommend using on carpet or area rugs.

The PowerDash Pet Hard Floor Cleaner uses powerful SpinScrub brushes and a fast-drying system to wash and dry your floors for you. Once the PowerDash Pet Hard Floor cleaner is turned on and in the reclined position, squeeze the trigger to dispense clean water and solution, push forward to wash and scrub your floors clean. Let go of the trigger, stopping the clean water and solution from dispensing, then pull back over the freshly washed path to suction up the dirty water left on the floor. Continue with this rhythm until all desired hard floors are cleaned.

While the Hard Floor Cleaner is turned on, the fast-drying system is continuously working to minimize the amount of water left on your floors. This system includes a front wiper that gently squeegees any excess water off your floors, combined with powerful suction that captures dirty water and sends it straight to the dirty water tank.

We recommend using our Hoover Multi-Surface solutions, including our Renewal, Paws & Claws, Hardwood, and Tile & Grout formulas. To maintain your PowerDash Pet Hard Floor Cleaner we do not recommend adding Bleach, essential oils, multi-purpose hand spray cleaners, or other multi-purpose cleaners not designed to be used in a machine.
