Facility, Floor & Outdoor covers 19 cleaning applications and 83 distinct cleaning targets. Find the job in the table, then take the construction and filament from that page — many of these are reach problems first, so the handle, pole or rod system is part of the specification.

What kinds of access problem does Facility, Floor & Outdoor work involve?
The targets in this group sort into a handful of access problems, and the construction follows from which one you have:
| Access problem | Targets in this category |
|---|---|
| general accessible surfaces | 42 |
| large floor areas | 12 |
| flat open surfaces | 8 |
| screens and perforated surfaces | 7 |
| narrow openings, ports and slots | 4 |
In practical brush terms: two applications in this category can share a residue and still need different brushes, because the opening differs. Start from the access problem, not the industry name.
How do I choose the right application?
Start from the surface you are clearing, find it in the table, and open that page for the target-by-target breakdown.
If your job is not listed, match on debris and surface: grit and road dirt on concrete, leaf and sludge in a gutter, soot in a flue and lint in a duct call for different stiffness, and the surface underneath decides how much of it you can use. Surfaces here are mostly large, open and abrasive, so the nearest listed application is usually the one with the same surface hardness and the same debris size.
The part people get wrong: these 19 applications run from a floor scrubber disc to a gutter brush on a pole, and the only thing they have in common is that the work happens outside a production line — not the brush. Weather is the variable people leave out: UV, frost and standing water shorten filament life outdoors far faster than the cleaning duty does.
