They are efficient enough to cater to the needs of an average household. On the other hand, commercial vacuum cleaners are heavy-duty and designed specifically to clean larger areas and that too for extended periods of time.

    Professional cleaning requires better performance and more reliable and efficient machines that can carry out all sorts of dry and wet cleaning in offices and commercial buildings. Many people prefer to hire services from professional companies with commercial vacuum cleaners for the reason they

  6. How Often Should We Vacuum?

    How Often Should We Vacuum?

    There are a few factors that help us determine how often and how thoroughly a house or business needs to be vacuumed. The location, season, the number of occupants and visitors in the house or business, whether or not there are pets and how susceptible the house or business is to outside elements are all key considerations in the assessment of your vacuum cleaning regime. Obviously the amount of foot traffic in certain areas influences the dust collection at any given time. Entrances and thoroughfares are main dust collectors.

  8. Farewell Dyson DC02 HEPA Filters. Parting is such sweet sorrow.

    It is a sad day indeed when a company stops supporting a once successful product.

    Unfortunately, in the case of vacuum industry juggernaut - Dyson Ltd - that day has come to pass.

    We at VacuumSpot were recently informed by a Dyson representative that the exhaust HEPA filter for the Dyson DC02 vacuum cleaner has been discontinued. It appears that Dyson are winding down support for some of their older products, in this case the Dyson DC02 vacuum cleaner.

    Polyester, disco balls and huge shoes made of cork were the height of fashion and technology in those days.

    But what does this have to do with vacuum cleaner bags ?! Well, a great deal my ever inquisitive reader.
