Choosing a vacuum cleaner can be confusing for many
consumers, as the number of vacuum types and options can seem
bewildering. When it comes to vacuums, there are just as many choices as
there are uses, and although some may think that vacuums simply remove
dirt and dust from carpets and rugs, many of today's modern vacuums can
be used for a variety of cleaning tasks. In addition to the ubiquitous
upright vacuum and cyclonic bagless vacuum, there are also specialty
vacuums to help you cope with hardwood floors, pet hair, and even
allergy problems. Therefore, not only will selecting the correct vacuum
for your specific needs make your cleaning job easier, it will enhance
and prolong the appearance of your floors.

Upright Vacuums
are perhaps the most common, and these are excellent at cleaning large, clear carpet surfaces. Upright vacuums have a pump that is mounted above the suction intake, with the bag mounted on the handle that is waist-high. |
Canister Vacuums
are useful for hard-to-reach spots such as under furniture and on stairs. They sport a cylindrical design that houses a motor and bag in a separate canister unit, which is then connected to the vacuum head by a hose. |
Handheld Vacuums
efficient for quick clean up of spills and messes, and are also great for vacuuming the interior of automobiles. These are usually battery-operated or electric, but have limited suction capabilities.

Vacuum Knowledge
Is a Central Vacuum System Right For You? Vacuuming floors may often seem like a tedious chore,
and lugging around a bulky vacuum around the house can be both annoying
and exhausting at the same time. Thankfully, however, with the advent of
the central vacuum, this type of vacuuming system can help you handle
this common household duty with minimal noise, dust, and yes, even
effort.
Standard vacuum cleaners are devices that use air pumps to create a
partial vacuum to suck up dust, dirt, and debris from floors. This dirt
is then collected by some kind of filtration system or cyclone which
aids in disposal. Like standard canister or upright vacuums, central
vacuum cleaners use suction motors and bags to help remove particulates
from carpets and hardwood floors. However, they are different from
standard vacuums in that their motors and bags are located in a
central location within a building. Vacuum inlets are strategically
situated in various places within a home or building, and the only thing
that needs to be moved from room to room is the vacuum pickup head and
hose.
