The Tempest is unique in its design. Over the years the specification and performance of HWC machines has increased. This has also increased the size and weight of the machines to what we think is unmanageable for many people.
Some machines weigh well in excess of 65kilos and some manufacturers avoid telling the true weight.
That is the reason we have developed the two part design which means each unit is much easier to lift and handle.
This machine can be easily carried upstairs by one person.
With the competitors’ larger machines it is often necessary to run very long hose lengths as the equipment can’t be maneouvred to the location of the job. Long hose lengths means a decrease in vacuum pressure and heat at the tool end. With the Tempest you can always get the machine to the jobmeaning shorter and more efficient hose lengths.
Performance on site is better than performance in the street.
The Tempest can run long hoses to 150ft if required.
*No more problems with three storey flats!
Built in noise suppression
Lengthy power lead
Unique twin unit design
Splashproof switch panel
Large opening for easy fill
Heavy duty castors
Marine grade glass reinforced plastic with high gloss finish
Upper wheels for easy transport
Casing made of marine grade G.R.P. which has a higher strength to weight ratio than moulded polyethylene machines. Unlike plastic machines the Tempest has a high gloss finish that can be easily cleaned and polished to keep its appearance in as new condition for many years.

Twin genuine AMETEK vacuum motors (1 x 6.6″/600W High Airflow and 1 x 5.7″/1200W high vacuum 3 stage) mounted in series or parallel. (Series recommended)
Vac motors are powered by our unique dedicated soft start modules that gradually feed power to the motors over a 5 second period. This means less stress for the motors giving longer working life. Another advantage is their is no power surge on start up. Note soft starts are different from delay starts fitted on some machines and which hold the power back for 5 seconds and then start the motor manually but still giving all the stress and surge of a normally switched motor.
220psi diaphragm pump with electronic variable pressure control. Compact and lightweight it’s the ideal choice. This pump can handle water temperature to 75degrees and is extremely chemical resistant in comparison to piston pumps which have a temperature limit of 60degrees and are very chemical sensitive. Some manufacturers advise not to allow any chemicals through the pump at all meaning that all jobs have to be completely pre-sprayed with the cleaning solution before commencing the clean.
Immersion type 3kw with double overheat protection. No more worries about running the tank dry and burning out the element. Large size element for low watts density means a long life. Fully thermostatically controlled.
Never been seen before, adds almost no weight to the machine. This totally unique system means you can fill up the tank with cold water and start to clean with hot in 5 minutes.
The Tempest has built in noise suppression material and specially constructed silencing box to dramatically reduce the unwelcoming loud nature of of a carpet cleaning machine. Talk to your customers without switching the machine off.
