What Determines The Suction Power Of A Vacuum Cleaner

A while ago one of you guys asked me to talk about vacuum cleaners and how they relate to their air intake or better said suction.

What determines the suction power of a vacuum cleaner.

If you do not have carpets and you do not plan to clean upholstered furniture an inexpensive low power vacuum cleaner will do. Needless to say larger cfm equals higher suction power. This means that a power team a canister vacuum cleaner with a power nozzle with a specification of 12 amps might be quite comparable to another power team with a 1200 watt motor that converts to only 10 amps. It is trivial vacuum cleaners are built to suck a high suction power vacuum cleaner is more effective in getting rid of dirt and grime hidden away in your carpets and tricky corners in between pieces of furniture under your bed and so on.

The same applies to the filters. Have you already checked whether the vacuum hose is clogged. In addition to this vacuum motor technology has improved significantly over recent years. This is because the power nozzle motor consumes 1 5 amps the bulb uses additional amperage and so on.

350 w useful power sufficient for dry cleaning of linoleum parquet tile and other smooth surfaces. The fuller the vacuum cleaner bag is the less suction power your vacuum has. Blockages inside of the hose can drastically decrease the suction power. The vacuum cleaner suction power is the most important term relating to the performance of a vacuum cleaner.

400 w is a useful power that allows you to successfully clean the carpet and cope with a large amount of dust and wool if the house has animals. A usual range is between 50 100 cfm depending on the type of vacuum.
