+1 (978) 295-7538Novatek Novastrip 1026 Infrared Tile Remover – Model N1026
Made to Order
The Novatek Novastrip 1026 (N1026) uses infrared radiant heat to break adhesive bonds beneath floor tiles without water, chiseling, or dust generation. With a 1026 sq in heating footprint, it removes up to six 12" × 12" tiles per cycle. Powered by 220V/50A — requiring no external buck booster — it uses 12V DC controls, a ceramic-coated heat panel, and a triple-redundant safety system. The powder-coated aluminum housing weighs significantly less than competing steel units, and one operator handles the full removal sequence.

Where the Novastrip 1026 Performs
Asbestos tile abatement contractors specify the N1026 because infrared removal keeps tiles intact, which satisfies EPA and OSHA requirements for minimizing fiber release during friable material handling. Flooring contractors performing large commercial remodels use it to clear 1,026 sq in per cycle rather than grinding or chiseling individual tiles, dramatically cutting labor hours. The one-operator design is particularly valuable in tight commercial renovation schedules where labor is the primary cost driver. Restoration companies handling water-damaged buildings use it for adhesive tile removal where water-based methods would further damage subfloors.
Infrared Technology vs. Conventional Tile Removal
Conventional scarifiers and floor grinders generate airborne dust that requires HEPA filtration and containment setup. The N1026 heats the adhesive from above through the tile, softening the bond without fracturing the tile surface or generating dust. The computerized control system governs heating cycles for repeatable results, and the solid-state electronics eliminate relay failures that cause downtime in mechanical-control competitors. For asbestos-containing floor tile, intact removal is often the legally required method — the N1026 makes it operationally practical at scale.
