Floor Scrubber Data: Original Research, Benchmarks and Cost Models
Most floor scrubber numbers you find online are brochure figures: theoretical productivity with no turns or tank stops, runtime measured on the lowest setting, savings claims with no stated assumptions. This section is our answer to that. Each page builds a transparent Scrubber Guide model from a small set of shared reference numbers, states every assumption in a Methodology section, and then shows the results in tables you can check and rerun for your own floor. The productivity benchmarks estimate square feet per hour by path width, speed and efficiency. The labor cost analysis turns those rates into annual cost at $18, $22 and $28 per hour, with payback math. Water and chemical use covers gallons per 10,000 sq ft (930 m2), tank coverage and detergent spend by dilution. Battery runtime data compares lead-acid and lithium by amp-hours and current draw. The market overview maps machine classes and the trends reshaping the industry, from robotics to subscriptions. Every modeled figure is labeled as a Scrubber Guide estimate, and every page includes a sensitivity analysis showing which inputs move the answer most, so you know how far to trust it. For quick answers on a single machine, the productivity calculator and ROI calculator use the same formulas.
