Complete guide to features to check
Motor power: Suction power is a determining factor in choosing a professional vacuum cleaner. It is measured in kilopascals (kPa) and indicates the force with which the device sucks up dirt and debris. The higher this value, the more effective the vacuum cleaner will be at collecting fine particles and stubborn dirt.
Airflow: The suction flow, expressed in liters per minute (L/min), represents the volume of air the vacuum cleaner can absorb. This characteristic, combined with the suction power, determines the device's ability to quickly treat large areas.
Tank Capacity: The tank capacity, in liters, indicates the volume of dirt the vacuum can hold before needing to be emptied. A large tank capacity reduces the frequency of work interruptions to empty the unit.
Filtration system: This is essential for capturing fine particles and maintaining air quality. Look for models equipped with HEPA or ULPA filters, which can capture up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.
Ergonomics and maneuverability: The weight, balance, and ease of maneuvering of the vacuum cleaner are important criteria, especially if the device needs to be moved frequently. Choose models with sturdy wheels and ergonomic handles.
Noise level: For the comfort of the user and the working environment, choose a vacuum cleaner with a noise level below 75 decibels (dB). Taski, with its range of Taski Aero vacuum cleaners, offers a range that has been specially designed to significantly reduce noise levels .
Accessories and versatility: Check the availability of a range of accessories (nozzles, brushes, extension tubes, etc.) that will allow you to adapt the vacuum cleaner to different surfaces and types of dirt.

Interview
Do you want to maximize the longevity of your vacuum cleaner? It's important to regularly maintain your professional vacuum cleaner.
Bags need to be replaced relatively frequently . If this is not done, a vacuum cleaner bag may release dust to the outside. Generally, a deterioration in its condition is visually noticeable, indicating that the bag needs to be changed.
Filters are among the elements that frequently need to
be cleaned or even replaced . As such, it is recommended to check their condition once a month. Similarly,
aluminum and
flexible tubes must be cleaned to ensure that they do not have any blocked elements in the duct, potentially hindering suction.
Beyond regular maintenance and inspection, the professional vacuum cleaner will benefit from careful handling. Also, when it is switched on, take care not to be rough with the different parts of the device. Thus, many times a
vacuum cleaner is "pulled" by its power cable, causing
"unexplained" breakdowns which are in fact the simple
disconnection of the wires on the terminals . In the same way, the
electric cable stuck between two doors can cause a
cut inside the sheath ... Similarly, care must be taken to store it carefully, without any part of the vacuum cleaner being exposed to excess heat, for example.
How to choose a professional dust vacuum cleaner?
There are several factors that can help you make an informed choice when choosing a professional vacuum cleaner. Professional users can therefore choose their vacuum cleaner based on:
•
Operating and
maintenance costs . Depending on the presence of filters, bags, or other consumables, choosing a professional vacuum cleaner can involve long-term costs. This is why Voussert offers compatible and standardized vacuum cleaner bags that are often less expensive than bags offered by brands.
•
Vacuum cleaner accessories and equipment are included from the start . Having a variety of equipment integrated into the vacuum cleaner helps reduce the cost of purchasing it. Bundle offers can be of interest if these accessories are useful to you, of course.
•
Noise level . An important element for professional use, the vacuum cleaner must make as little noise as possible if it is
used in a space conducive to calm, such as offices, schools, nurseries, hospitals, etc.
•
Durability and
warranty . Two of the most important elements to reassure you when purchasing a professional vacuum cleaner. Durability ensures the proper use of the equipment for a long time, including in cases of intensive use, when the warranty will cover the costs in the event of malfunctions of essential parts of the device.
Be careful with vacuum cleaners purchased on foreign sites because beyond compliance, there will be the
problem of after-sales service and the country's warranty. •
Budget. Inevitably, this is one of the first criteria for businesses and professionals looking to purchase a
powerful and reliable vacuum cleaner . A professional dust vacuum cleaner will ensure reliability in terms of its simplicity. Thus, the
Numatic Nupro remains a safe bet with thousands of vacuum cleaners sold worldwide each week.
