Does the HydroVac work on carpets?

No. It is built for sealed hard floors such as tile, vinyl and sealed wood. Wet cleaning on carpet or unsealed wood can damage the floor.

How often do I empty the tank?

The dirty water tank holds 0.09 gal, so expect to empty it after most cleaning sessions. Larger messes may need several empties.

What does the self-cleaning cycle do?

It flushes the brush roll with clean water and spins off debris after a job. You still need to empty the dirty tank and let parts dry.

Is it corded or cordless?

It is corded and needs a wall outlet while running. That gives steady suction but limits how far you can go from a socket.

Expect the unit, a brush roll, a filter and a measuring cup for solution. Check the listing for the exact included accessories.

Our take on the Shark HydroVac 3-in-1 Vacuum, Mop & Self-Cleaning System

The Shark HydroVac is a corded hard-floor cleaner that vacuums, mops and then rinses its own brush roll in one pass. It picks up wet and dry messes together and stores the dirty water in a small tank. It suits quick cleanups on sealed hard floors rather than whole-home deep cleaning.
