Abstract

A cleaning apparatus includes a housing, a suction assembly, and a liquid delivery system. A wand is in fluid communication with the suction assembly and the liquid delivery system via an accessory hose. A rotary scrubbing tool is selectively coupled to the wand. The rotary scrubbing tool includes a motor assembly and a support member. A pad base is operably coupled to the motor assembly for driving rotation of the pad base. The pad base defines an air outlet and a liquid outlet proximate to a central rotational axis and a fluid inlet proximate to a peripheral edge. The suction assembly directs air through the air outlet, across the pad base, and through the fluid inlet. Liquid dispensed from the liquid delivery system via the liquid outlet is directed across the pad base and through the fluid inlet by the suction assembly.
