No Cord in the Corridor. One 28-Inch Pass.
The Mastercraft® SV280 Battery runs on two 36V lithium-ion batteries, so no cord crosses a corridor while residents with walkers and wheelchairs move through it. Its 28-inch path is more than twice the width of a standard 13-inch commercial upright.

Order Summary
The Case for Cordless
A cord across a corridor sits in your residents’ path.
Housekeeping runs while residents are up and moving. A cordless machine takes one temporary hazard out of the cleaning path.
Accident Hazards: The Federal Rule
In nursing homes, the Medicare and Medicaid requirements for long-term care facilities say the facility must ensure that “the resident environment remains as free of accident hazards as is possible”. The SV280 Battery takes the vacuum cord out of the cleaning path. Compliance depends on your facility’s whole program; the machine is one part of it.
Walkers, Wheelchairs and Rollators
Residents in assisted living and skilled nursing use walkers, wheelchairs, canes and rollators. A vacuum cord stretched across a corridor during cleaning sits in their path. The SV280 Battery runs on two 36V lithium-ion batteries, so there is no cord to route around them.
Coverage Math: One-Third the Passes
The SV280’s 28-inch path covers more than twice the width of a standard 13-inch commercial upright on each pass. On a 10,000 sq ft open area, its product page puts it at roughly one-third the passes of a standard upright, and with no outlets to find between wings, that time goes back to your housekeeping staff.
Where It Works
Corridors, Common Rooms and Offices
The SV280 on hard floors and commercial carpet in the spaces a senior living community runs.
The Machine
Mastercraft® SV280, Battery or Corded
Two models with the same 28-inch path on hard floors and carpet: the SV280 Battery on two 36V lithium-ion batteries for corridors in use, or the corded SV280 on a 60 ft cord for off-hours cleaning.
Which floors it covers in your community
Resident corridors and wings
Covered: corridor carpet and carpet tile, LVT and vinyl, with no attachment change. The SV280 Battery runs while residents are up; the corded SV280 suits corridors cleaned when they are not.
Dining rooms, common rooms and chapels
Covered: commercial carpet, hardwood and vinyl in dining rooms, activity rooms, lounges and chapels, turned around between meals or events with one 28-inch pass at a time.
Memory care
Covered: the same floors as the resident wings. With no cord to route, staff can stop and step aside for a resident without moving a cord out of the way.
Offices, lobbies and nurses’ stations
Covered: lobby and office carpet, entry tile and vinyl. For rooms with strict air-quality rules, pair it with an Enviromaster® HEPA vacuum: the SV280 is not a sealed HEPA vacuum.

Questions
What Housekeeping Directors and Administrators Ask
What senior living teams ask before they order. A person answers at (845) 565-8850.
How does a cordless vacuum help with CMS surveys?
In nursing homes, the Medicare and Medicaid requirements for long-term care facilities say the facility must ensure that “the resident environment remains as free of accident hazards as is possible”. The SV280 Battery takes the vacuum cord out of the cleaning path. Compliance depends on your facility’s whole program; the machine is one part of it. Assisted living communities follow their state’s rules.
Can it clean LVP, vinyl tile and carpet?
Yes. It picks up from hard floors and carpet, LVT and vinyl included, with no surface change or attachment swap.
Is it a HEPA vacuum?
No. Both SV280 models use a cloth and dust bag filtration system; neither is a sealed HEPA vacuum. For rooms with strict indoor air-quality rules, pair it with an Enviromaster® HEPA vacuum.
Is it CRI certified?
The corded SV280 (SV280P) holds the Carpet and Rug Institute’s Seal of Approval at the Gold level, certificate SOA100460. The SV280 Battery is not CRI certified.
Battery or corded: which model?
The SV280 Battery suits corridors and common rooms in use: no cord crosses a resident’s path, and its product page describes a quiet motor for spaces in use. The corded SV280 suits cleaning when residents are not in the area, with outlets within reach of its 60 ft cord. Both clean 28 inches per pass.
How long do the batteries last?
The SV280 Battery comes with two 36V lithium-ion batteries. One runs while the other charges, for full-shift runtime.
How much floor does the SV280 cover?
Its 28 inch cleaning path is more than twice the width of a standard 13 to 14 inch commercial upright. On a 10,000 sq ft open area, the SV280 can complete the job in roughly one-third the passes of a standard upright.
What comes in the box?
The SV280 Battery comes with two 36V lithium-ion batteries. The corded SV280 ships with a Wide Area Vacuum Filter Bag 2 Pack, a zippered cloth filter bag and a brush roll.
Which bags and parts fit?
The Wide Area Vacuum Filter Bag 2 Pack | Infiltrator®, the zippered cloth filter bag and the brush roll are listed for the corded SV280; the order section offers them as spares when you choose that model. For SV280 Battery parts, call (845) 565-8850.
