Mosquito America Spotter 3G-0055-AS Carpet Extractor – 220 PSI, 97 CFM

Mosquito America 3-Gallon Spotter Extractor with 220 PSI and 201°F Inline Heater

The Mosquito America Spotter 3G-0055-AS is a commercial-grade portable carpet extractor that delivers 220 PSI of solution pressure, 82" of water lift, and 97 CFM of airflow from a 19"H × 21"L × 9"W package weighing under 30 lbs. Built entirely in the USA with epoxy-coated vacuum fans, marine-grade sealed bearings, and Viton-seal chemical-resistant pumps, this machine is engineered for restoration contractors, carpet cleaning technicians, and facility managers who need spotting power without the footprint of a portable.

3G-0055-AS Machine Specifications and Construction

• Solution pump: 220 PSI — Viton-seal pump handles hot solution and aggressive chemistry without degradation
• Vacuum motor: 82" water lift / 97 CFM / 8A — Ametek side-discharge motor with noise-diffusing exhaust manifold
• Inline heater: 201°F stainless steel / 7A — constant-temperature heating raises solution temp for faster fiber release
• Tank capacity: 2.9 gal solution / 2.6 gal recovery — single-body design keeps footprint at 19"H × 21"L × 9"W
• Bearings: marine-grade sealed — rated for water exposure and continuous commercial use
• Body warranty: lifetime — epoxy-coated aluminum body; 1-year on pump and motor
• Power cord: 20 ft UL-listed — integrated strain relief, NEMA 5-15P plug, runs on standard 120V circuit

Where the Spotter 3G-0055-AS Outperforms Larger Machines

The Mosquito Spotter is the go-to choice for spot and stain work in spaces where a full-size portable extractor is too cumbersome to maneuver — hotel corridors, office suites, vehicle interiors, and upholstery restoration. Its compact 21-inch length fits through narrow doorways and into elevator cabs without disassembly. Restoration technicians use it as a secondary machine for targeted extraction after a truck-mount has dried a room, while carpet cleaning crews carry it as their dedicated upholstery and stair tool. The 201°F heater ensures enzyme treatments and solvent chemistry activate properly even when working away from a hot-water source.

Pressure Delivery, Tool Kit, and Single-Tank Architecture

At the wand end, the 220 PSI pump drives solution through 8 feet of reinforced hose and a stainless-steel hand tool with a brass shutoff valve, giving technicians fingertip pressure control without returning to the machine. The single-tank design — one chamber for clean solution, one for recovery — keeps the unit at under 30 lbs when empty and eliminates the fill/drain complexity of two-tank systems. The included 4" clear-view acrylic hand tool lets operators watch soil transfer in real time, an important quality-check in restoration work. For heated operation the stainless inline heater draws 7A and the vacuum motor draws 8A, for a combined 15A draw that fits on a standard 15A dedicated circuit.
