+1 (978) 295-7538Bissell Big Green Commercial BGH-17E 17-Inch Heavy-Duty Floor Stripping Machine
The Bissell Big Green Commercial BGH-17E is the single-speed, heavy-duty 17-inch floor machine in the Big Green commercial line — purpose-built for floor stripping, deep scrubbing, and aggressive shampooing on commercial VCT, terrazzo, and tile. The 1.5 HP motor runs at a steady 175 RPM through a triple-planetary high-torque transmission designed to absorb the load of stripping pads pulling old floor finish. The all-metal polished aluminum chassis adds the weight needed for effective pad contact during stripping passes, and the 5-year motor and gearbox warranty backs the heaviest-duty work in the lineup.
Where the BGH-17E Sits in the Bissell Big Green Lineup:
- BGH-17E (this machine) – single-speed 175 RPM, heavy-duty stripping and scrubbing
- BGTS-17 – dual-speed 175/300 RPM, scrub and buff in one machine
- The BGH-17E is the choice when the primary task is stripping, deep scrubbing, or shampooing — operations that demand torque and pad pressure rather than buffing speed
BGH-17E Stripping Power and Build
- 1.5 HP Motor at Steady 175 RPM – torque-optimized for floor stripping pads and heavy-duty scrubbing where higher RPM would burn the pad before stripping the finish
- Triple-Planetary Transmission – multi-stage gear reduction transfers maximum torque to the pad without bogging under load
- All-Metal Polished Aluminum Chassis – machine weight (106 lbs) supplies the downward pad pressure that finish-stripping requires
- 5-Year Motor and Gearbox Warranty – the longest motor coverage in the Big Green commercial line, reflecting the BGH-17E's designed-in heavy-duty service profile
- Non-Conductive Dual Triggers + Interlock Switch – two-handed operation requirement keeps the operator engaged during high-torque stripping passes
- 50-Foot 14/3 Safety Cord – covers a full classroom or commercial corridor on a single outlet without an extension cord
- 6-Inch Non-Marking Wheels – protects finished floors during repositioning between strip-and-recoat zones
Where the BGH-17E Is Deployed
Schools and government buildings use the BGH-17E for summer floor refinishing programs where stripped VCT and terrazzo are recoated overnight. Healthcare facilities use it for waxed-floor refinishing in main corridors and lobbies during lower-occupancy windows. Retail and grocery operators use it for stripping cure-coated VCT in stockrooms and back-of-house aisles. Restoration contractors handling fire and smoke damage use the BGH-17E to scrub and strip soiled commercial floors before applying new finish coats.
