The necessary task of vacuum cleaning needn’t be tedious and long winded, in fact regular cleaning with the right vacuum has definite health benefits.
With greater suction capabilities and durability, a commercial vacuum will out-perform a residential model and make the job of keeping your business looking its best much easier. We know it can be hard to know which type is right for you and your business.
A few things to remember when making your choosing may include:
In this blog we’ll talk you through the different types of commercial vacuum cleaners available and their capabilities.
Back-pack vacuum cleaners are lightweight and feature an adjustable harness to reduce strain and maximise comfort for the wearer.
These vacuums are designed to boost mobility and productivity, plus the increased range of motion and ease of use makes them ideal for use in tight spaces such as under desks, high surfaces and stairs.
Cordless vacuum cleaners are a fantastic option for quick clean ups or awkward spaces as they are more manoeuvrable because they’re not restricted by cords or dependant on plug sockets. These vacuums get their power from a battery source which requires charging between uses, and usually have an average run time of 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on which power level you’re operating in.
Many models still come with the standard accessories such as an extendable pole, different brush heads, and a crevice tool that can get right into those hard to reach places.
A wet and dry vacuum is a versatile cleaner in the fact that it can be used to clean both wet and dry spills without compromising power or performance.
Most wet and dry vacuums feature either a trolley system or castor wheels for easy transportation and efficient cleaning. These can be used on many different types of flooring such as carpet, hard floors, stairs, and tiles.
Vacuum cleaner bags are an essential component of most vacuums as they trap dust and debris while acting as an air filter, helping to ensure air quality while you clean. Unlike bagless cleaners, they make waste disposal easy – virtually eliminating that plume of dust when you empty your vacuum.
However, not all types are the same, they’re available in many different materials such as micro fibre, paper, cloth and multi-layered varieties. It also depends on which type of bag the manufacturer recommends for the model you’re using, keep reading below for more details on each.
Micro fibre bags offer great suction performance and superior dust capture technology. Micro fibre itself acts an air filter, improving the quality of air leaving the vacuum, and keeping the filters cleaner for longer which means less cleaning and maintenance! They are also a cost effective option as they’re more damage resistant than other types of vacuum bags.
Paper bags allow for great airflow around the vacuums filters and motor as they are designed to capture high levels of dust. This type of vacuum bag has been around since the 1950’s as a disposable alternative to traditional cloth bags, which makes them convenient and hygienic for regular use. Many brands will have a paper bag option available for most models of vacuum cleaners.
Cloth bags are the original type of vacuum cleaner bag, they provide good suction and dust capture. Cloth bags are washable, reusable and damage resistant, making them an eco friendly option.
Offering high filtration, multi layered bags are designed with a double layer to help retain small dust particles which is ideal for pet hair removal or those suffering from allergies. These bags are the cream of the crop for keeping debris out of your vacuums filters and motor.
