I would think the upright style cleaners can be used for wet pickup, the question is can the pump be shut off. Water pumps should not be run without water.
The older canister/drum style carpet cleaners (such as Bissell, VAX, Kenmore) mostly could be used for wet or dry vacuuming. I don't believe any are currently available in the US. The last model I knew still available was the Bissell Big Green complete, which was a carpet/upholstery cleaner and wet/dry water filtration vacuum, which was discontinued a year or two ago.

There are steam vacuums that you can use the vacuum function independent of the steam. The one I have is the limatic carbon by TPA Impex out of Italy. The draw back is that you can only use turbo nozzles for carpet. I know they make a model that looks like a rainbow with a power nozzle, but I’m not sure if they make a 110V version for the states. I’ve bought tools from Us Steamvac and the owner has imported some tools for me so I’d check out there website to see if they have anything you might want.

No Well I think the diffrence between a steam cleaner and a vacuum cleaner is that, A steam cleaner steams floors. A vacuum cleaner sucks the floors. | ||

Even with dry carpet cleaning, there are still drawbacks with using that method. In fact when you add those dry carpet cleaning powder onto the carpets, they are actually damp until you let it airdry. Otherwise I would recommend just ripping out all of the carpets and replace them with bare floors if you're concerned with water, mold, or stains not coming out of the carpets. But are still some people like me that prefers mostly carpet over barefloors and through the years that I have cleaned carpets with, I found that professional truck mount cleaners in my opinion are the best way to clean carpets with. I actually find it very satisfying as well.
