WILL LOWERING THE VACUUM HEIGHT
CLOSER TO THE CARPET PICK UP MORE DIRT?
Running your
vacuum too low on the carpet height position makes a vacuum clean
less, and puts strain on your belts. (HINT) Start your carpet height
on its highest position, turn the vacuum on and move down until
you hear the vacuum change pitch. That's the right carpet height.
WHAT CAUSES VACUUMS TO BE LOUD
OR NOISY?
Will typically be one of the
following:
Broken fan
Bad brush roller
Bad motor bearings
Vacuum is clogged
DOES HIGHER AMPERAGE MEAN MORE
POWER?
Not necessarily. Amperage denotes
how much electricity is being used. Some vacuums use less electricity
but have more powerful motors.
WHAT IS BETTER UPRIGHT OR CANISTER?
70% prefer uprights and 30% prefer
canisters. However we have found that whatever you were brought
up with is what you will prefer.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A
BAGLESS CLEANER?
No need to purchase vacuums bags,
and most bagless cleaners offer HEPA filtration.
HOW DO I KNOW WHEN TO CHANGE
BAGS OR FILTERS?
Most people change bags once a month
and filters once a year, but this varies depending on usage.
HEPA VS. MICRON (WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE)
Micron filtration filters 99% of particles
as small as 5.0 microns.
HEPA filtration filters 99.975% of particles as small as .03
microns.
