The CAT C21V Stainless Steel HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum is a heavy-duty commercial vacuum designed for facilities that need to handle both dry debris and liquid cleanup with one machine. With a large 21-gallon stainless steel tank, HEPA filtration, 120 CFM airflow and 70 inches of water lift, it gives commercial cleaning crews the capacity and suction needed for demanding day-to-day work.
For janitorial contractors, facility maintenance teams and businesses managing large floor areas, the C21V offers an efficient alternative to switching between separate machines for dry debris and spills. Its long power cord, mobile dolly design and full set of cleaning attachments make it practical commercial cleaning equipment for warehouses, restaurants, schools, retail facilities and other high-traffic environments.
More Capacity Means Fewer Interruptions
On larger cleaning jobs, stopping repeatedly to empty a small vacuum can quickly eat into labour time. The C21V's 21-gallon tank capacity allows operators to work through larger amounts of debris and liquid before needing to stop and empty the machine.
The vacuum delivers 120 CFM of airflow and 70" of water lift, giving cleaning crews useful performance for everything from routine floor maintenance to heavier wet cleanup. A 14-inch cleaning width also helps operators cover open floor areas efficiently.
For cleaning companies working on tight schedules, that combination of capacity and performance can make a noticeable difference in how smoothly a job progresses.
Built for Commercial Mobility and Everyday Use
A large-capacity vacuum still needs to be manageable on the job. CAT equips the C21V with a dolly-style frame, large push handle, two rear wheels and two front casters, making it easier to move through commercial facilities despite its larger tank.
The 50-foot power cord is particularly useful in warehouses, hallways, restaurants and other larger spaces because operators can cover more ground without constantly searching for another outlet. On-board tool storage keeps commonly used attachments with the vacuum, reducing trips back to a janitorial closet or service vehicle.
Its stainless steel and plastic construction is designed with commercial durability in mind, while the removable canister helps make routine maintenance and emptying more straightforward.

Ideal Applications
The CAT C21V is particularly useful anywhere cleaning crews regularly encounter a combination of dry debris, fine dust and liquid spills. Its large capacity makes it better suited to commercial environments than smaller shop-style vacuums where frequent emptying can slow down the job.
It is a practical choice for:
- Warehouses and distribution centres
- Commercial cleaning contractors
- Schools and educational facilities
- Restaurants and food service areas
- Retail stores and shopping facilities
- Healthcare and institutional facilities
- Construction and renovation cleanup
- Workshops and maintenance departments
- Office and commercial buildings
- Hospitality facilities
- High-traffic common areas
The wet/dry capability is especially useful for contractors who clean different types of facilities. Instead of carrying separate equipment for everyday debris and unexpected spills, crews have one professional cleaning machine ready for both.
A Practical Commercial Vacuum for Larger Jobs
For businesses that need more capacity than a standard wet/dry vacuum can provide, the CAT C21V offers a useful combination of 21-gallon capacity, HEPA filtration, 120 CFM airflow and commercial-grade mobility. Its included wet and dry floor tools also mean crews can put the machine to work across a range of cleaning situations without purchasing the basic attachments separately.
