The Tornado BR 28/27 (catalog #99775C) is a 24V ride-on scrubber with a 28-inch cylindrical cleaning path, a 27-gallon solution tank, and a 28-gallon recovery tank, clearing up to 37,673 sq. ft. per hour. The cylindrical brush runs at 785 RPM under as much as 320 pounds of pressure and sweeps debris into a tray as it scrubs, which drops the separate sweeping pass. A 6-foot turning radius keeps it working in aisles where bigger riders cannot turn, and the flooded lead-acid battery pack powers a full shift between charges.

Who the BR 28/27 Is For
Ride-on scrubbers earn their keep on open floors where an operator would otherwise walk miles behind a machine. Supermarkets, schools, healthcare buildings, and warehouses give the BR 28/27 the runs it is built for, and the seated position keeps operators comfortable across a full shift. Productivity near 37,000 sq. ft. an hour replaces several walk-behind passes. Because the frame turns inside a 6-foot radius, crews still reach end caps and tight corners that usually force a switch back to mopping.
How the Deck, Tanks, and Battery Work
A cylindrical brush spans the full 28-inch path and spins at 785 RPM, lifting grit and fine debris into an onboard tray so the floor is swept and scrubbed in the same pass. Pressure climbs to 320 pounds for ground-in soil on textured surfaces and grout lines.
The 27-gallon solution tank feeds the deck while the 38.5-inch squeegee recovers water into the 28-gallon tank, and the squeegee lifts automatically in reverse. Its 24V flooded lead-acid battery carries the lowest upfront cost of the BR range and tops up with periodic watering.

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!!
