Heavy-Duty Floor Scrubber Comparison: AIOLITH AF2013 vs AF2217 vs AF2225
Compare AIOLITH Floor Scrubbers by Route, Brush Pressure and Operating Format
The AF2013, AF2217 and AF2225 all use commercial rotary scrubbing, but they are designed for different facility routes and operator workloads.

AF2013: Compact Walk-Behind
Choose AF2013 when maneuverability in tighter routes matters most. Its 20 in working width and 66 lb brush pressure make it a practical option for retail, schools, offices, clinics and smaller warehouse routes.
AF2217: Self-Propelled Walk-Behind
AF2217 adds a dedicated traction motor, larger tanks and 88 lb brush pressure. It is a stronger fit when longer routes make repeated pushing tiring.
AF2225: Micro Ride-On
AF2225 is designed for longer large-area routes where operator walking itself becomes inefficient. Its maximum gradient specification is 18%, not 18 degrees.
Brush or Pad Selection
Do not choose a cleaning tool only from the phrase “heavy duty.” Match the brush or pad, chemical and pressure to the actual floor finish and soil. Sensitive finishes should be tested first and maintained according to the flooring manufacturer’s guidance.
Battery, Warranty and Support
AF2013, AF2217 and AF2225 use 24 V 100 Ah lithium batteries specified for 5,000+ charge cycles. The cycle specification is not a guaranteed calendar lifespan. Actual calendar life depends on charging, depth of discharge, temperature, storage, workload, and battery condition. Review the current written product and warranty terms for coverage, exclusions, claim procedures, regional terms, and duration before purchase. Human technical support provides an initial response within one business day.
Bottom Line
Choose AF2013 for compact routes, AF2217 for self-propelled walk-behind productivity, and AF2225 when ride-on operation is justified by route length and operator workload.
