The Tornado BR 22/14T (model 99695T) is a 24V traction-drive walk-behind scrubber with a 22" cylindrical brush that sweeps debris into a tray while it scrubs, so lightly soiled floors skip the separate pre-sweep. It covers a theoretical 22,000 sq. ft. per hour, carries 14-gallon solution and 15-gallon recovery tanks, and runs at just 67 dB(A) for cleaning during occupied hours. A four-sided parabolic squeegee leaves drier, streak-free edges. The machine fits schools, hotels, and healthcare buildings with 10,000–30,000 sq. ft. of hard floor and corridors too tight for a 26" unit.
BR 22/14T Cylindrical Brush, Traction Drive, and Squeegee Design
A cylindrical brush is the key reason to pick this over a disc machine in its size class: it sweeps and scrubs at once, so debris pickup doesn't need a pre-sweep on lightly soiled floors.
22" cylindrical brush — picks up dry debris and scrubs in one motion; drops the separate sweep step on moderately soiled floors
Four-sided parabolic squeegee — wraps the scrub deck on all four sides for drier floors and fewer streaks at pass edges than two-sided designs
Traction drive included — no operator push on flat floors; the 24V system moves the machine while the operator steers and manages solution
On-board 24V, 20A charger — plug in at end of shift; the TPPL variant pairs its charger to NXS120 batteries
67 dB(A) sound level — below most occupied-facility noise policies; runs during school hours, busy hotel lobbies, and clinical areas
14-gal solution / 15-gal recovery tanks — sized for continuous 3-hour runs in most schools and mid-size buildings without refill stops
BR 22/14T Applications and Environments
Schools and districts are the most common buyers. The cylindrical brush removes the pre-sweep step that typically adds 20–30 minutes per building, and the 67 dB rating lets custodial staff run the machine during the school day. Hotels with hard-surface corridors and lobby floors between 5,000 and 15,000 sq ft per floor specify it for night cleaning, where the traction drive eases operator fatigue across 6-hour shifts. Outpatient clinics and small hospital buildings use it in treatment corridors, waiting areas, and admin wings where the 22" path fits standard doorway-width halls and the cylindrical system handles fine debris like dust, paper, and packaging. Restaurants with sealed concrete or quarry tile run it after close, where sweeping and scrubbing in one pass saves 20–30 minutes per shift.

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!!
