  • Some motor technologies provide quieter operation without sacrificing airflow and suction.
  • Filters trap dirt, drywall dust and other debris and prevents it from recirculation. Some shop vacuums with HEPA filters harness more than 99% of dust mites, pollens and other allergens. Many filters also include antimicrobial treatments that help prevent the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew and other harmful substances.
  • The more stages in the filtration system, the more control for maximizing performance with a wide range of debris types.
  • On-board or built-in tool storage holds all of your nozzles and cleaning accessories along the side of the vacuum.
  • For easy storage, some vacuums feature wall-mounting capabilities for saving space.
  • Built-in spouts or drains that make emptying liquid content simple and easy for hassle-free cleanup.
  • Hoses and nozzles with large, wide passageways greatly reduces the potential for clogs and blockages.
