PF57 / PF58 Dual-Motor Wet/Dry Vacuum — 192 CFM for Industrial Recovery in 20-Gallon Tank
The Powr-Flite PF57 (stainless steel) and PF58 (polyethylene) are dual-motor 20-gallon wet/dry vacuums delivering 192 CFM and 80" water lift from two 1,200W / 1.6 HP motors. Compared to the single-motor PF55/PF56 at 114 CFM, the dual-motor configuration handles heavier debris loads, longer hose runs, and demanding industrial recovery jobs without suction drop. Both include 1.5" x 10" swivel hose, 2-piece wand, full tool kit, and 2-stage filtration.
PF57 / PF58 Dual-Motor Performance and Tank Configuration
The dual-motor configuration is the deciding factor: two 1.6 HP motors in tandem push 192 CFM versus 114 CFM on the single-motor units, and the increased airflow maintains performance through longer hose runs and heavier material.
Two 1,200W / 1.6 HP motors, 192 CFM total airflow — 68% more airflow than single-motor models; pulls material through longer hose runs without the suction drop that limits single-motor units on extended reach jobs
80" water lift — lower than the single-motor models' 100" due to dual-motor configuration; optimized for high-volume airflow over maximum static suction
20-gallon tank in stainless (PF57, 78 lbs) or poly (PF58, 62 lbs) — stainless for corrosive fluid recovery; poly for general industrial use where lower weight matters on multi-operator jobs
Drain systems: tip-and-pour (PF57) vs. drain hose (PF58) — poly model drains without lifting a 60+ lb tank; stainless tips to drain into a floor drain or collection container
1.5" hose with swivel connector — wide bore resists clogging on heavy material; 360-degree swivel at tank connection eliminates kinking on directional work
Front-mount squeegee available (FM200 / FM200H) — optional add-on for wide-area floor water pickup that outpaces wand recovery on flat surfaces
PF57 / PF58 Applications and Environments
Manufacturing and industrial facilities with heavy material handling use the dual-motor models for machine coolant, cutting fluid, and metal chip recovery where single-motor units lose performance mid-job. Commercial laundry and food processing operations with large-volume wash-down recovery programs run these as the primary wet recovery unit for their 20-gallon capacity and high airflow. Restoration contractors handling large commercial water damage events use the PF57 stainless for sanitizable recovery in situations requiring documented cleaning protocols. Construction contractors on concrete grinding, surface preparation, and renovation projects use the 192 CFM airflow for maintaining recovery rates through 10-ft-plus hose extensions.

Located in the Twin Cities in Minnesota, we acquired our Brio Air Filter in mid-late Spring of this year (2023) when pollen count was high and we were beginning to experience the effects of Poor Air Quality Index as a result of smoke particulates from fires in Canada that caused the air in much of Minnesota to become hazy and simply dirty.
It is so easy to share our experience with the Brio Air Filter given how quickly and efficiently it removed pollen, dust, and smoke particles from the environment inside our home. Two people in our home who suffer from pollen-related allergies during the spring immediately experienced easier breathing and elimination of symptoms within the house. With respect to smoke particulates from Canada drifting into our environment, EVERYONE in our home experienced directly improved breathing and smell of the air when entering from outside.
An additional piece of information to account for is that we have always employed high grade furnace filters in our home’s central HVAC system. With that high grade filtration in place both prior to and after acquiring a Brio home air filter, we all quickly agreed that deploying the Brio in our home made an easily noticeable positive difference in breathing inside our home. Additionally, those of us who clean our home have observed that dust builds up slower on our floors and furniture than before we deployed the Brio unit.
We did note that the Brio is not as quiet as a few other brands/models on the market that we have tried in our home but the efficiency and quality of the filtration, along with the air turnover rate it provides,allows us to locate the Brio unit in central rooms away from the bedrooms. Since we made that change there has been no noise-related effect on our sleep, while the unit maintains the same level of air cleanliness throughout our home.
A last key point to make is how easy the Brio unit is to maintain. The simplicity of the modular construction of the Brio unit makes it very quick and easy to keep the filtration sections clean. We have not yet reached a point of filter replacement but it is obvious to us that the replacement will take a matter of seconds and can be executed by anyone in our home, including our 10-year-old son.
It seems to help reduce my allergy issues. We're glad we bought it. The only problem I had was not seeing any cubic footage recommendations in the online description when purchasing the unit. Bedrooms vary widely in size!!
