The Kärcher NT 22/1 Ap L is a compact, lightweight wet and dry vacuum designed for light to moderate commercial cleaning. Its 1,300-watt motor handles dry dust, coarse debris and liquids, while the 22-litre container provides practical capacity for offices, retail spaces, workshops, service vehicles and smaller job sites.
Weighing only 5.7 kg without accessories, this professional wet/dry vacuum is easy to carry between locations and convenient to store when space is limited. Its compact design makes it especially useful for mobile cleaners, maintenance teams and contractors who need dependable wet and dry pickup without transporting a larger machine.
Semi-Automatic Filter Cleaning Maintains Suction
The Kärcher Ap semi-automatic filter-cleaning system helps restore airflow when dust begins accumulating on the filter. Activating the system sends a burst of air through the filter, helping maintain strong suction and reducing the need to remove and clean the filter manually during a job.
A washable, moisture-resistant PES cartridge filter allows the vacuum to move between wet and dry applications without requiring the filter to be dried first. This makes it easier to handle different types of debris during the same cleaning shift.
Compact Design for Mobile Commercial Cleaning
The suction hose connects directly to the machine head, allowing more of the 22-litre container’s volume to be used. This reduces how frequently the container needs to be emptied while keeping the vacuum compact and easy to manoeuvre.
A stop swivel castor helps keep the machine in place when needed, while the lightweight body and compact dimensions make transportation and storage straightforward. The vacuum includes the main tools required for standard wet and dry floor cleaning.
