It runs two internal vacuum chambers behind a single edge-to-edge slot, rides on its own wheels instead of relying on operator down-pressure, and carries an integrated spray gun, a clear sight tube and a solution temperature gauge. Vpro manufactures it in the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a truckmount tool. Vpro engineers the Gemini for machines running a 45-series blower or larger, so it is not a match for portable extractors.

Where airflow runs short, the middle of the slot does the work and the ends leave moisture behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gemini splits the slot across two internal vacuum chambers so airflow is shared across the full width rather than drawn toward one centre port. That is also why the blower requirement matters: the design assumes a commercial truckmount, not a portable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWheels, weight and the seal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gemini is built to hold itself down through airflow rather than through the operator leaning on it. The wheels carry the tool between strokes, and the magnetic upright stand parks it without laying it on the carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn dense, high-friction commercial carpet a tool that seals hard can become difficult to drag. Vpro fits an adjustable seal for exactly that reason, so the seal can be backed off where the tool would otherwise grip too firmly. If a wide tool feels like it is locking to the floor, the seal is usually the first adjustment, not the vacuum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo vacuum chambers behind a single edge-to-edge slot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour jets with eight flow settings, so solution volume can be matched to the fibre and the soil load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlider control for suction level at the tool.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear suction tube, so what is coming off the carpet is visible during the stroke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolution temperature gauge at the tool rather than at the machine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated spray gun for pre-spray and spotting without changing tools.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheeled operation with magnetic upright parking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnap-on, screwless PTFE glides for tool-free changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGlides and service parts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gemini is supplied with slotted virgin PTFE glides.

A portable will not deliver the airflow this head is designed around, and the result is water left in the carpet. If you are running a portable, a narrower wand is the right tool — see the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/carpet-wands\"\u003ecarpet wands range\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this a rotary tool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Gemini is a wand and cleans in straight strokes. It has no rotating head, so there is no spinning action to manage on delicate fibre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy red, and can I get a different colour?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed refers to the powder-coated handle assembly. The head is clear anodised aluminium, which is Vpro's standard. Coloured anodised heads are available from Vpro at extra cost, and Vpro is upfront that anodised colour fades and marks with professional use. Clear anodised is the most durable finish of the three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it compare with a standard Vpro wand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vpro titanium wands are general-purpose tools suited to residential and light commercial work, and several will run on a strong portable. The Gemini is a commercial production tool: wider coverage per stroke, wheeled, and dependent on truckmount airflow. For a lighter everyday wand, look at the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/vpro-titanium-swivel-wand-14-x-2-4-jet\"\u003eVpro Titanium Swivel Wand 14 x 2 inch\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it come with glides fitted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Vpro supplies the Gemini with its slotted PTFE glides, which snap on without screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be serviced in Australia?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
