The Razorback Vac Mate is a vacuum booster box for portable extractors. It adds vacuum airflow to the extraction system so a portable keeps recovering water over longer hose runs, which lets you leave the machine in a convenient spot and keep working at the wand.
It suits professional carpet cleaners and restoration contractors working in apartments, high-rise buildings, aged care facilities, hotels and large residential properties. The Vac Mate is designed for compatible portable extractors fitted with a vacuum booster connection port.
Clean further, recover more water, dry faster
By adding vacuum airflow into the extraction system, the Vac Mate helps improve water recovery, reduce carpet drying times and increase productivity on larger jobs. For operators regularly working beyond standard hose lengths, a vacuum booster can be one of the most effective upgrades available for a portable extractor.
Why use a vacuum booster?
As hose lengths increase, airflow and water recovery naturally decrease. The further the wand is from the machine, the harder the vacuum motors work to maintain extraction. The Vac Mate adds vacuum performance into the system, so you keep stronger airflow and water recovery over extended hose runs.
The result is:
- Improved water recovery
- Faster carpet drying times
- Increased extraction performance
- Greater usable hose lengths
- Improved productivity on larger jobs
- Less machine movement during cleaning
- Better performance in apartments and multi-storey buildings
- Improved flood extraction capability
Get more from the portable you already own
A vacuum booster lets operators get more performance from their existing equipment without the expense of upgrading to a larger portable extractor or truckmount. The Vac Mate is particularly useful in:
- Apartments and high-rise buildings: leave the machine downstairs, in the hallway or service area while keeping strong extraction at the wand.
- Large residential homes: reduce the need to keep repositioning the machine through the property.
- Commercial carpet cleaning: improve productivity in offices, schools, aged care facilities, hotels, shopping centres and commercial buildings.
- Water damage restoration: improve water recovery during flood extraction and structural drying, where removing as much water as possible is critical.
Improve water recovery and reduce drying times
The more water you recover during extraction, the faster carpets and soft furnishings dry. Improved vacuum performance can help:
- Reduce carpet drying times
- Improve cleaning results
- Reduce wick-back issues
- Reduce re-soiling
- Improve customer satisfaction
- Increase daily production

Power on site
A booster adds vacuum motors, and vacuum motors draw current. Plan the circuits before the job: run the booster from a separate circuit to the extractor, from an RCD-protected outlet with a tested and tagged lead.
Frequently asked questions
Does a vacuum booster improve drying times?
Yes. Improved water recovery removes more moisture during extraction, helping carpets and upholstery dry faster.
Can I use a vacuum booster on apartment and high-rise jobs?
Yes. Vacuum boosters are commonly used where operators need to run longer hose lengths while leaving the machine in a convenient location.
Is a vacuum booster useful for water damage restoration?
Yes. Additional vacuum performance can improve water recovery during flood extraction and water damage restoration projects.
Do I need a truckmount if I have a vacuum booster?
Not necessarily. A vacuum booster can significantly improve the performance of a portable extractor and is often one of the most cost-effective upgrades available for professional cleaners.
Will the Vac Mate work with my machine?
The Vac Mate is designed for compatible portable extractors fitted with a vacuum booster connection port. Contact Carpet Cleaners Warehouse with your machine model if you are unsure about compatibility.
