Disaster recovery and restoration can be veiled in mystery to the many who have not undertaken specific training. This glossary explains technical terms to assist both report writing and the understanding of those technical terms so often misunderstood.
Definition
| Automatic Floor Scrubber: |
A self-contained and often self-powered vinyl floor and hard surface cleaning machine. Education Note: An automatic floor scrubber can be used with multiple floor scrubbing/cleaning disks (brushes or pads), that dispenses cleaning solution, scrubs the floor, and takes up the spent solution in one singe operation. The automatic floor scrubbing process, on completion, is meant to leave the floor clean and dry. While many automatic floor scrubbers are designed to walk behind the machine while using electric AC/DC power, some automatic floor scrubbers are large enough to sit in and drive, and are propane powered. See Floor Scrubber, High-speed Buffer |
| Floor Scrubber: |
A cleaning and scrubbing machine that is usually powered by A/C and has 300 RPM. The floor scrubber is a single disk (pad) cleaning machine, and depending on the pad, it becomes a cleaning, scrubbing or stripping machine. Education Note: In a sewage clean-up situation, after gross sewage has been removed and cleaning and sanitizing is the final step, a floor scrubber is highly desirable in cleaning and sanitizing finished floors to porous concrete slabs.
