Airflex Storm: The best portable carpet cleaner you have ever used or your money back!

Unleash the Power of the Airflex Storm!
  • Our most powerful professional carpet cleaning machine
  • Airflex Storm cleans around 4 times faster than a standard 130psi / twin vac professional machine
  • Much faster drying
  • Double the vacuum power of most professional extractors
  • Can power 200ft of hoses!
  • ‘Truckmount’-style speed and drying times at a fraction the cost!
  • All our machines are for industrial/commercial use only

The British designed and built Airflex Storm is our top-of-the-range flagship extractor.

The incredibly powerful 600psi Airflex Storm can run 200ft hoses direct from your van, with a host of features to help you clean to a higher standard faster and with with less effort.

The Airflex Storm’s high performance pump and super-powered parallel vacuum set-up mean the operator can move the wand up to 4 times faster – you can move the wand just as quickly as you would if using a truckmount, without needing to spend lots of time on additional dry wand passes (necessary with ‘in-series’ machines).

Half your extraction time with the Airflex Storm…

Airflex Storm comes fitted with a beast of a 600psi pump, suitable for both carpet and hard floor cleaning. This fully adjustable powerhouse of a pump allows you to clean more carpets in less time. Fewer passes of the wand are needed, with the water pressure doing more of the work for you.

…dry in half the time

The Airflex Storm is fitted with an extremely powerful vacuum motor system – far more powerful than the standard Lamb Ametek 1200 or 1400 watt motors used on Airflex Pro and Airflex Turbo machines. Vacuum performance on the Storm is comparable to 3 x 1400 watt heavy duty Lamb Ametek vacuum motors!

This incredible vacuum power allows you to move the wand much more quickly. Soil extraction is far more efficient and fewer dry passes are required. Drying times are much faster and you have enough power to clean 200ft away from the machine. The gap between portable and fuel-powdered truck mount has never been so small.

You will not believe the difference in speed, ease of use and drying times when you try one of the Airflex Storm machine.

Now with optional auto-feed system

With the Airflex Storm auto-feed system, you can connect Airflex Storm directly to any external or van-mounted water tank. This reduces set-up times significantly and there’s no need to install a separate pump. Just drop the auto-feed hose from Airflex Storm into any external water tank and you are ready to go. Still more time saved.

We can also fit a hozelock type connector if you want to connect directly to a tap.

High efficiency cleaning direct from the van with Airflex Storm

Airflex Storm is our best direct-from-the-van cleaning solution yet:

  • No more lugging around heavy equipment
  • No more time wasted filling and emptying buckets at the sink
  • No more machine noise and mess in the customer’s premises
  • No more time wasted setting up and packing away equipment unnecessarily

With Airflex Storm running direct from the van, you can be set up and ready to clean in seconds, with faster cleaning and faster drying times.

Airflex Storm cleans more carpets in less time and with less effort. It’s a faster, easier, more convenient and more profitable way to clean.

The flexibility of a portable machine…

But what about the jobs you can’t do ‘truck mounted’? Simply unhook Airflex Storm from the van and you now have an incredibly powerful portable extractor that goes all the places a fuel-powered truck mount cannot.

So if you have a job on the 5th floor? Or if you can’t park close enough to the building? Or if you are worried about pedestrians tripping over hoses? No worries! Airflex Storm still does the job.

Airflex Storm is significantly lighter than its predecessor Airflex Turbo. And with the Airflex easy-loading system, loading and unloading the machine is so easy – there’s no need to install a ramp in your van.

Guaranteed to WOW your customers

The Airflex Storm is a highly professional looking machines that cannot fail to impress your customers. Expect lots of comments from customers when you own an Airflex Storm – there is no doubt you are using modern top-of-the-range equipment when you turn up with one of these machines.

We believe that a modern looking top-of-the-range machine can only give customers more confidence in your work, and more confidence in recommending your services.

Optional exhaust silencer

Add an Airflex exhaust silencer to reduce machine noise significantly and to exhaust damp air away from the working area, thereby reducing drying times.

Easy access and maintenance

The Airflex Storm’s motor housing can be accessed in less than 20 seconds. The vac motors have quick connect electrical fittings and can be changed very quickly and easily. The pump head has a quick release system which means it can be changed in as little as 10 minutes. This all makes life a lot easier for your maintenance engineer and saves you money in maintenance costs.

A fraction the cost of a fixed truck mount system

Airflex Storm gives you the time saving and convenience of being able to clean direct from the van, but with the flexibility and low running costs of a portable extractor.

  • Low initial investment – a fraction the cost of a fuel powered truck mount
  • Local repair network – servicing can be arranged quickly with less downtime
  • Low running costs – plugs into your customer’s electricity supply just like a normal portable machine
  • High return on investment
  • For the cost of just one top-of-the-range fuel powered truck mount, you could purchase up to 6 Airflex Storm machines. Ask yourself; which has the potential to earn you more?

I’ve been using Ashbys Enforcer since 2013 and used to love it. However after series of electrical problems(relays, capacitors, melted plugs and est. I’ve decide it’s time to move on. Having read a lot for the storm I’ve downed my future choices to 3 machines -Another Enforcer ,Storm and Alltec Advance. Went for the Storm 800 psi as its the lightest and easier to work on, and still the most powerful from the bunch.Well impressed just need to be extra careful with the dirty tank lid.

30 years of involvement with the cleaning industry has led to many trials, tests and changes of equipement, until Cleansmart introduced the Airflex range. Carefully thought out and designed, all the usual pitfalls of extraction machines have been firmly addressed resulting in the finest, most powerful and reliable machines available. Buying the Turbo to start, followed by the Storm over three years ago, and two minitwins, one being a 300 psi with bigger vacs. They are in regular use, the Storm van mounted with 150 feet of 2″ hose on a reel, and the muni 300 , we call it the ‘little giant’, for smaller jobs (van mounted too). Super reliable, relentless awesome power, at an affordable price.

After working in this industry for about 15 years, I’ve have used a wide variety of carpet cleaning machines and I have to say this is the best one I’ve owned. It looks the part and works as well as it looks and produces great results. I’ve been so impressed I’ve recommended this machine to other companies and also bought the ‘Air Flex Mini’ for smaller jobs. Plus the training days I got with the machines were well worth it.

Great machine, it’s a girls best friend (at work anyway!)

I’ve had my Airflex Storm for just over 2 years now and it has never let me down. Since then I’ve cleaned thousands of carpets and dozens of suites with excellent results. I run mine from the van as much as I can and with the remote control it makes it even easier to use. When need be, I can disconnect it from my water tank and just use it like any other portable, it’s just so versatile. I’ve used my machine with over 125 feet of hose with very little loss of suction giving excellent drying times. When my customers see it, it really does impress them, especially when it’s turned on and they can hear the power of the vacuums. I would highly recommend this machine and Cleansmart to any carpet cleaners out there.
