Bissell BG697 38" Push Power Sweeper – Triple Brush, 13.2 Gal, 44 lbs
Bissell BG697 38" Push Power Sweeper for Commercial Floors
The BG697 covers 38 inches per pass with a triple-brush system — two counter-rotating front brushes and one fiberglass bottom roller — that collects both fine dust and coarse debris in a single sweep. The 13.2-gallon debris container holds significantly more than standard push sweepers, cutting the number of empty cycles on large floor areas. Integrated side rollers clean along walls and into corners without repositioning.

Commercial Spaces Where the BG697 Is Deployed
Warehouses use the BG697 between scheduled maintenance cycles to clear cardboard dust, packing material, and fine debris from concrete floors. Retail stores with large footprints run it before opening to clear overnight settled dust. Convention centers and event spaces use it for post-event sweeping before extraction cleaning. The 13.2-gallon container and 38-inch path reduce the number of passes and empty cycles on open floor plans, which directly reduces labor time per shift.
Push Sweeper vs. Upright Vacuum for Large Floor Areas
A push sweeper collects dry debris mechanically without filtration, motor noise, or power cord management — making it the practical choice for open warehouses, loading docks, and retail aisles where vacuuming is impractical. The BG697's triple brush design handles the transition from fine dust to larger debris without clogging, and the large debris container eliminates the frequent interruptions that smaller units require. For facilities that need both sweeping and extraction, pair the BG697 with a walk-behind floor scrubber.
