DrainVac was founded in 1982 by Conrad Sevigny, a professional carpet cleaner. Frustrated by the need to constantly interrupt cleaning in order to empty soiled water from a storage tank, he worked tirelessly in his garage to develop a vacuum system that could empty itself automatically.
With his working prototype, the process was much easier and quicker: place the system on a toilet bowl, connect the water hose to a hot water tap and start cleaning. No refilling or emptying required! Today, the DrainVac “ProXtrak” Liquid Extractor is adored the world over by professionals in carpet cleaning and disaster recovery for its powerful suction, continuous operation and it’s unique ability to lift large amounts of liquid quickly.
Over the last 30 years, the DrainVac range has expanded to include a variety of residential and commercial vacuum systems including another world first; a ducted automatic wet & dry. From a small family business based in St. Hyacinthe Canada, DrainVac quickly grew into a thriving enterprise with a network of distributors and retailers in 30 countries and in 2011 the range was finally made available in Australia.
