Background and Identification
The Clarke Carpet Extractor EX20-100SC-HD (or just EX20-100SC) is manufactured by Nilfisk, a Denmark-based company that manufactures professional cleaning equipment. Nilfisk produces equipment that is suitable for the industrial market as well as consumer and commercial markets. Clarke began in 1916 as a maker of floor sanders as well as other vacuums and cleaning equipment. It was bought by Studebaker Company in the 1960s and later by Nilfisk. Clarke is now a regional brand within the Nilfisk company.
This carpet extractor with a built-in heater is intended to be used to clean floors. It is one of three models of EX20 carpet cleaners, along with the EX20-100C and the EX20-100H. The heater is included to reduce drying time, since the floors could be at risk for mildew and damage if they are left wet after being cleaned.
