Tips on purchasing a
commercial vacuum cleaner
Commercial vacuum cleaners range in cost
from 200 to 2000 dollars . When you purchase a commercial vacuum cleaner
you should look at the purchase as an investment. If you are purchasing
the vacuum for a residential or commercial cleaning company you need a
vacuum cleaner that won't breakdown, is inexpensive to repair and is
user friendly. Some commercial vacuum cleaners can have a life span of
up to 15 years whereas single motor vacuum cleaners can loose power
after just one year. There are three factors to look at when buying a
vacuum cleaner.
The first factor to look at when buying a commercial vacuum is the
manufacturer. Make sure to purchase a vacuum from an established
manufacturer that has had ample time to perfect their product. You can
usually purchase a commercial vacuum at a lower price from a newer, less
known company but you won't have a track record to compare it too. Some
of the largest manufacturers of commercial vacuum cleaners are Hoover,
Eureka, National Super Service, Proteam and Crusader. These companies
have established track records and you can easily find reviews on their
vacuum cleaner products on the internet.
The second factor in purchasing a vacuum cleaner is its features. When
looking at vacuum cleaners consider what you are going to use it for. Do
you clean main traffic areas, small work station cubicles, large open
areas or places that are hard to reach. If you vacuum a lot of hallways
or walking traffic areas a commercial upright vacuum cleaner is usually
the most efficient at this task. Commercial back pack vacuum cleaners
are perfect for vacuuming cubicles and hard to reach places. For large
carpeted areas such as banquet halls and conference areas a wide area
vacuum is recommended. These vacuum cleaners can clean paths up to 3ft
wide in one pass and are equipped with large debris tanks for extended
use. Features also include optional tools for the vacuum cleaner. Some
manufacturers of commercial vacuum cleaners like NSS give you a large
selection of additional tools that can be added to your vacuum to
perform specific duties. Attachments such as crevice tools, extension
tools, bare floor tools and extension tubes can be useful for a variety
of tasks.
The third and final factor in purchasing a vacuum cleaner is the
warranty. If you intend to keep your vacuum cleaner for as long as you
can, you can reduce repair costs by getting the longest and most
comprehensive warranty plan possible. Repair service by a knowledgeable
technician can be costly so make sure to pick a vacuum with a long
service warranty. Vacuum parts are relatively inexpensive for vacuum
cleaners and usually amount to about a third of the cost on an average
repair. Also make sure to read the fine print on a vacuum warranty, it
has been my experience that some vacuum cleaner manufacturers have a
warranty clause for just about everything.
After you have considered all the factors that come into play when
buying a commercial vacuum cleaner and have picked out a few models in
your price range compare the specifications side by side. Usually the
vacuum cleaner with the most power and wider cleaning path is the smart
pick. Make sure you price out vacuum cleaner filter bags and vacuum
belts because this cost alone over time can add up.
