Tennant T291 Walk Behind Floor Scrubber
Upgrade to the Tennant T291 for More Features with No Comprise on Compact Operation
When you need more from a compact walk-behind scrubber than the T290 delivers and is the right step up. This battery-powered compact walk-behind scrubber-dryer delivers a 500mm cleaning path, dual 50L solution and recovery tanks, self-propelled drive, and up to 3.5 hours of run time, all in a manoeuvrable machine built for hospitals, retail stores, offices, and schools where tight spaces and congested areas are a daily challenge.
Water-resistant control panel, motor overload protection, no-tool brush and squeegee changes, and Linatex® squeegee blades all contribute to a machine that's easy to operate, easy to maintain, and built to run reliably day after day.
Key Features & Benefits of the Tennant T291
-
ECO mode reduces noise, water consumption, and increases run time — ECO mode lowers the sound level to 63 dB(A) for daytime cleaning in noise-sensitive environments like hospitals, schools, and retail stores, while simultaneously reducing water usage and extending battery run time — making every tank fill go further and reducing the frequency of refill stops across a cleaning shift.
-
Self-propelled drive with pre-programmed Standard and ECO cleaning settings — the self-propelled drive reduces operator fatigue across longer cleaning routes, while the intuitive LCD control panel allows easy switching between Standard and ECO cleaning modes, with indicator lights that alert when the solution tank is low or the recovery tank is full — keeping cleaning routines consistent and reducing operator error.
-
No-tool, no-touch spin-on/spin-off brush and squeegee change system — brush and pad driver changes require no tools and no direct contact with the brush or pad, keeping maintenance fast, hygienic, and simple for any operator, while the fast no-tool squeegee attachment system makes post-cleaning routines quick and easy to complete correctly every time.
-
Self-leveling brush for optimum cleaning performance across different floor surfaces — the self-leveling brush automatically adjusts to maintain consistent contact with the floor regardless of minor surface variations, delivering a more uniform clean across tiles, VCT, concrete, and other hard floor surfaces without operator adjustment.
-
Water-resistant control panel and motor overload protection for long machine life — the water-resistant control panel protects electrical components from water ingress during cleaning, while the output regulator protects the self-propel motor from overwork — two features not found on simpler compact machines that contribute directly to longer machine life and lower service costs over time.
Why Choose the Tennant T291 Over Other Tennant Walk-Behind Models
The T291 sits just above the T290 in the Tennant walk-behind range and is the right choice when the T290's simplicity isn't enough but the larger tanks and wider paths of the T390, T391, T300, and above are more machine than the job requires.
-
ECO mode and a 63 dB(A) sound level make it the compact choice for noise-sensitive environments — the T290 operates at 74 dB(A) with no ECO mode, while the T291's ECO setting drops noise to 63 dB(A) and reduces water consumption simultaneously. For hospitals, schools, retail spaces, and offices where daytime cleaning without disruption is a requirement, the T291 is the compact scrubber that the T290 and T260 simply can't match on noise.
-
More features than the T290 in the same compact footprint — the T291 adds ECO mode, LCD display, water-resistant control panel, motor overload protection, and self-propelled drive over the T290, all within the same compact size. For facilities that need these capabilities but aren't ready to step up to the larger tanks, wider paths, and higher price of the T300 or T391, the T291 sits in exactly the right position in the range.
-
Larger equal solution and recovery tanks than the T290 — the T291's dual 50L/50L tanks hold more than the T290's 40L/50L setup, meaning more floor covered per tank fill and fewer interruptions to the cleaning route — a practical advantage in facilities with medium-sized floor areas that need the machine to run longer between refill stops.
