Compact Floor Scrubbers Compare 3 Models
Compare three compact floor scrubber models from CLEVO for commercial cleaning teams and equipment distributors. Choose HYM3 for a narrow working path, HYM1 for a wider twin-brush head or HYM5 for larger water tanks. Then check your choice against your floor layout, water-service points and handling needs. These operator-guided machines scrub compatible hard floors and recover dirty water during local cleaning tasks.
Choose your compact floor scrubber by the task
Choose the working head for your floor layout, then compare tank capacity and handling weight. Since furniture spacing and turns limit access, allow for the whole machine as well as the cleaning path. Plan the route back to a filling and draining point before choosing your tank size.

The differences that affect your choice
Choose HYM3 for the narrowest working path, HYM1 for the widest brush path or HYM5 for the larger tanks. Then account for your access space, handling load and distance to water-service points.
Working path and recovery width
HYM3 pairs a 280 mm cleaning path with a 340 mm squeegee; HYM5 pairs 350 mm with 420 mm. HYM1 has a 520 mm working path. Overall dimensions and turning space also matter at doorways and furniture legs.
6 L or 13 L of cleaning solution
HYM1 and HYM3 each hold 6 L of solution and 9 L of recovered water. HYM5 holds 13 L and 15 L. Choose the larger tanks when water-service points are farther apart; refill frequency still depends on solution use.
Weight changes the handling plan
Net weights are 20 kg for HYM3, 24 kg for HYM1 and 60 kg for HYM5. Include liquid load when planning storage and transfers, then use an approved handling method for the full load. Do not use compact size as a one-person lifting limit.
Brush details explain the configuration
HYM1 has two 160 W brush motors and a 350 rpm brush speed, while HYM3 has a 200 W brush motor and HYM5 a 400 W motor. Match the tool and cleaning process to the floor rather than ranking cleaning results by motor wattage.
For larger floor routes and tank capacities, compare our walk-behind floor scrubbers. To compare compact, walk-behind and ride-on formats together, return to the floor scrubber selection guide.
Organise compact-floor cleaning in short sections
Use these machines on hard flooring that accepts wet cleaning. Plan manageable sections with access to filling, draining and storage. Then follow your model's instructions for the controls, fitted components and permitted adjustments.
Working head and cleaning tools
The powered tool agitates soil with compatible solution. HYM1 uses a twin-brush arrangement, while the tool material and fit must suit both the machine and floor. Test sensitive coatings and joints before continuing.
Separate solution and recovery tanks
One tank supplies cleaning liquid; the other collects dirty water. Monitor both independently, because even a larger recovery tank needs enough space for the water collected after each solution refill.
Water-recovery components
All three models have a recovery motor and dirty-water tank. HYM3 and HYM5 list 340 and 420 mm squeegees respectively. Keep pickup edges clean and flow paths clear to maintain recovery.
Operator control and movement
Your operator steers through each section and checks the result. Allow room for the head, recovery assembly and handle at turns. Before cleaning under furniture, check the actual operating clearance; use only positions permitted for your model.
Your working sequence
- Clear loose debris, cords and objects. Plan the route around furniture and protect the wet-cleaning area from pedestrian access.
- Isolate power before inspecting tools and recovery components. Check floor compatibility, tanks and battery charge; add water and suitable low-foaming detergent as instructed.
- Test a small area using the model's specified cleaning sequence. Inspect the surface and recovery result before continuing.
- Use steady, overlapping passes and slow at turns. Monitor both tanks and return to the service point when filling or emptying is needed.
- Stop and isolate power before draining or cleaning. Dispose of dirty water at an approved point; clean the tanks and tools and follow charging and storage instructions.

Clean tanks, sound recovery parts and the correct floor-care process support everyday operation. Follow the instructions for your model when cleaning, charging or servicing the machine.
Routine care
- Drain dirty water after use and clean the tanks, tools and fitted recovery components. Follow the model instructions for any filters and parts that may be washed.
- Inspect brush wear, pickup edges, hoses and connections. Stop and investigate reduced recovery or persistent water trails before resuming work.
- Isolate power before removing tools, clearing blockages or making adjustments. Keep water jets away from controls, motors and electrical connections.
- Use the matched battery and charger instructions for charging and storage. Allow cleaned components to dry and store the machine securely in the designated place.
Application limits
- Use wet cleaning only on compatible hard flooring. Assess carpets, unsealed wood, upholstery and moisture-sensitive joints separately; do not apply this hard-floor process to them without suitable equipment and surface guidance.
- Do not recover flammable liquids or hazardous dust. Use suitable low-foaming detergent and keep people clear until the cleaned surface is safe for access.
- Plan safe handling for the full machine and its contents. Do not force it over steps, operate it on stairs or treat net weight as a one-person lifting limit; follow the machine's slope and load restrictions.
Need a replacement part?
Keep the model and fitted assembly together when identifying tools or recovery parts.
Tools for your compact floor scrubber
Build the consumables and service-parts list around the exact model and floor finish. Your quotation identifies the supplied components, while additional brushes, pads and replacement items appear separately.
Brushes and permitted cleaning pads
Request brushes or permitted pad arrangements by model, fitting and floor finish so each tool can be matched to its working head.
Recovery wear parts
Order pickup blades, hoses and other wear parts for the assembly fitted to your model. Include the exact model and part identification, even when the machines have similar dimensions.
Low-foaming cleaning solution
Match detergent to the floor finish and recovery system, at the instructed dilution. Extra concentration cannot replace a suitable tool and surface test.

Compare HYM3's narrow working path, HYM1's wider twin-brush path and HYM5's larger tanks against the actual area. Check the full machine and recovery assembly at access points before choosing a model.
Compact floor scrubber buying questions
Answers for your model shortlist, operation and purchasing plan.
Can a compact floor scrubber work between or under
furniture?
Allow room for the whole machine, head and recovery assembly. Although HYM3 has the narrowest working path here at 280 mm, its squeegee is 340 mm. Check the actual operating clearance before cleaning under furniture, and use only positions permitted for your model.
Which floor types are suitable for wet scrubbing?
The finish, joints and installation must tolerate the selected water, tool and detergent combination. Therefore, test a small section before continuing. Do not extend the same process to carpet, unsealed wood or moisture-sensitive flooring.
Can I refill the solution tank without emptying the
recovery tank?
Only while enough recovery space remains within the operating instructions. Monitor both tanks independently, because their unequal sizes still require you to check recovery space before refilling the solution tank.
Are these machines easy for one person to lift?
Plan handling for the full load rather than assuming one-person lifting. These models weigh 20–60 kg net before liquid is added, so use an approved transfer method. Do not use the machines to clean stairs.
How long can the machines run?
The stated operating times are 1.5 hours for HYM1 and HYM3 and 2 hours for HYM5. However, actual time varies with battery condition and cleaning load. Include filling and draining stops when planning the work completed during a shift.
Does compact mean self-propelled or automatic?
An operator guides these compact scrubber dryers, controls the task and monitors the floor. Powered brushing and water recovery are cleaning functions, not autonomous navigation. Plan operator-guided use; do not assume self-propelled travel or unattended cleaning.
Can people walk on the floor immediately after a pass?
Keep the area protected until the surface is safe, even after water recovery. Inspect turns, joints and water trails before reopening. If pickup declines, stop and investigate; recovery does not guarantee instant dryness or slip-free flooring.
Does a higher motor rating mean better cleaning?
No. Wattage describes motor configuration, while tool contact, material, detergent, soil and floor condition affect the cleaning result. Compare a representative surface trial rather than ranking machines by motor power.
What do you need for a distributor or bulk quote?
Send model quantities, floor and access details, destination, charging requirements and requested wear parts. Then use the written offer to check the supplied configuration, packing, MOQ and lead time for your order.
Which tools, batteries and chargers are included?
The supplied package is specific to the model and configuration. Your quotation identifies the included components, while extra brushes, permitted pads and service items appear separately. Check the fitted battery and matched charger configuration as part of the order.
