Dry Vacuums

Dry Vacuums

Another popular option for contact cleaners. Dry vacuums, sometimes referrered to as drum vaccums, cylinder vacuums or pullalong vacuums are usually lightweight and can be carried if desired. Dry canister vacuums are excellent for builders cleans, or other situations where heavy dirt is being collected. The dirt sits in the bottom of the drum and the motor, located on the top of the vacuum can suck, unobstructed by the collected debris and dirt.

 

Chose a dry vacuum if you:

  • Have a small to medium-sized house or flat. The cleaning head is generally much smaller on a cylinder so it will take you longer to vacuum compared with an upright.
  • Have awkwardly shaped rooms or a lot of furniture to clean around. Cylinders are lighter and more manoeuvrable for getting under tables and cleaning stairs.
  • Have a mix of carpets, rugs and hard floors as cylinders are ideal for cleaning a wider variety of surfaces.
  • Need a lightweight cleaner which you can carry up and down stairs.
  • Have limited storage space.
