Diversey Defoamer Foam Control Liquid for Extractors 32 oz Pack of 6 — Ready-to-Use Unscented

Diversey 95002620 Defoamer is a ready-to-use, low-odor liquid that quickly eliminates and prevents foam in recovery tanks, protecting equipment and restoring suction performance.

When foam builds in extractor recovery tanks or autoscrubber systems it reduces vacuum efficiency and can cause erratic machine operation. This unscented, pre-mixed defoamer is formulated for instant use—no dilution required—and is intended for recovery tanks, hoses and cleaning tools used in carpet extraction and floor cleaning. Its fast action helps maintain consistent cleaning performance and decreases the risk of foam-related component wear.

How does this defoamer restore extractor suction and machine performance?

Foam in the recovery tank creates air pockets and interrupts the vacuum stream, which reduces fluid pick-up and can force operators to stop and drain tanks more frequently. Adding a small amount of this product breaks foam quickly, allowing the vacuum to re-establish normal flow and maintain cleaning productivity.

• Quick-acting formula disperses foam to recover suction faster
• Added directly to recovery tanks—no pre-mixing needed
• Helps keep cleaning cycles continuous, reducing downtime

Will using this product help extend my machine’s service life?

Excessive foam can stress pumps, motors and seals by altering normal fluid dynamics and creating unexpected loads. By controlling foam proactively, the defoamer reduces strain on internal components and lowers the chance of foam-related faults or premature wear.

• Reduces foam-related mechanical stress on motors and pumps
• Minimizes need for emergency maintenance due to foam issues
• Supports longer intervals between repair cycles when used appropriately

How do I apply this defoamer safely and effectively?

The product is supplied ready-to-use and is dosed directly into recovery tanks or hoses as needed during operation. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidance and label directions for recommended quantities; a little goes a long way to knock down foam without altering cleaning chemistry.

• Add small increments directly to the recovery tank while machine is running
• Suitable for use with carpet extractors, autoscrubbers, hoses and hand tools
• Low-odor, unscented formula for commercial use where fragrances are undesirable

What safety and handling points should I consider?

Because this is a concentrated cleaning adjunct, use standard chemical handling practices: wear appropriate PPE per the label and store containers upright in a cool, ventilated area. Avoid mixing with other chemistries unless recommended by Diversey; always consult the product label for specific precautions and first-aid measures.

• Follow label instructions for PPE and storage
• Do not mix with incompatible products; refer to manufacturer guidance
• Dispose of empty containers according to local regulations

Who is this for: Facilities managers, cleaning contractors and janitorial staff who operate carpet extractors, autoscrubbers and wet recovery equipment will find this product useful. It’s aimed at teams that need a fast, unscented foam control solution to maintain machine performance, reduce interruptions, and protect equipment investment during routine floor and carpet cleaning operations.
