A spilled coffee in the lobby at 10 a.m. can't wait for the night crew and the big extractor. The Mosquito 3-Gallon Spotter rolls out of a closet on its retractable handle, plugs into one outlet and pulls the stain before it sets. You choose the pump, 55, 120 or 220 PSI, and whether you want a 1,000 W in-line heater.
Every model includes a 7 ft vacuum and solution hose and a 4 in stainless steel hand tool with a clear view head, so you can see the water you're pulling out.
For a 3-gallon spotter, this one is built like a bigger machine: a rotomolded body, a double wall solution tank around the pump and motor to cut noise, a Foam-shield that keeps moisture out of the motor, and a molded-in cord wrap that releases with one pull. The retractable handle and the balanced top handle make it easy to roll down a hallway or lift into a car.
One pricing quirk worth knowing: Mosquito's 2026 pricing makes the 220 PSI non-heated $1,146.15, less than the 120 PSI non-heated at $1,171. Unless you specifically want the 120 PSI pump, the 220 PSI gives you more pressure for less. The 55 PSI model at $935 is plenty for spot cleaning; the higher pressures help on upholstery and car interiors.
Three pumps. 55 PSI FloJet for spotting, 120 PSI or 220 PSI AquaTec for upholstery, autos and stubborn stains.
1,000 W in-line heater option. Stainless steel, up to 201°F, with dual ceramic thermostats.
82 in of lift, 97 CFM. Mosquito's Super vacuum motor pulls water back out so spots dry fast.
Clear view hand tool included. 4 in stainless steel tool with a clear head and brass valve, plus a 7 ft hose set.
Portable and tidy. Retractable handle, hidden top carry handle, non-marking sealed ball bearing wheels and a molded-in quick-release cord wrap.
Rotomolded in the USA. Lifetime body warranty, 3 years on the motor and pump.
All six share the same body, tanks and Super vacuum motor. The difference is the pump and heat.

Mosquito's noise-diffusing exhaust manifold redirects motor air through sound-absorbing material, and the double wall solution tank wraps the pump and vacuum motor for even less noise, useful in offices and hotels during the day. A single rotary latch lets you lift off the recovery tank to dump it, and an in-line clear view filter protects the pump from running dry.
Every model has the same body, tanks and Super vacuum motor, so parts and filters are shared across the range. The recovery tank filter (650-0005) and in-line strainer (500-0002) are the wear parts to keep on hand; ask us and we'll order them with your spotter.
Blot or vacuum up what you can first. Pre-spray the spot with a carpet spotter matched to the stain, give it a minute, then spray and extract with the hand tool, working from the outside of the spot inward. Finish with a few dry vacuum passes. On heated models, switch on the heater a few minutes before you start.
