Choose a vacuum cleaner

A clean home is a healthy home.

A vacuum cleaner is one of your most important cleaning tools.

So, how do you decide what features to look for?  There are five primary features to consider when making a wise, informed purchase:

1. Choose a two motor system.  Let the vacuum do the work, not you!  A two motor system eases the cleaning process.

2. Choose a geared belt.  The vacuum will get more traction and stretch, which equal better cleaning.

3. Look for a model with cyclonic suction, preventing clogs and keeping power at its peak!

4. Blow through occurs with poorly designed bags.  Look for high efficiency filters that prevent fine dirt and dust from passing through the bag and filter and into the air in your home.

5. Finally, look for air breathing attachments.  With such attachments, you will get consistent, high-velocity airflow, again, resulting in more efficient cleaning.

Superior service?  Yes, you deserve it!

Find a dealer who can and will provide the following:

• In-home evaluations for allergy and asthma triggers as well as tips for providing a healthier home.

• Service work on all makes and models of vacuum cleaners with a loaner vacuum available (based on availability).

Just remember, a healthy home protects your family from indoor air pollution.  A quality vacuum will purify the air you breathe, decontaminate surfaces, and help eliminate harmful pollutants responsible for triggering allergies.
