                            Replacing the plug is as simple as buying a similar diameter, rubber cork to put in it on the inside so this way, it won’t blow out. However, another issue that I’m sure you will have with a detachable blower is that the exhaust port turbulence is excessive. My product, the vacuum vortex completely eliminates that as it adds HEPA filtration to the canister. Check out the website VacuVortex.com and you’ll see.

                            By|Sep 29, 2025

                              Simply purchase a rubber cork of about the same diameter as the plug and use it on the inside so this way, it doesn’t blow out. Another problem that you exist I’m sure is that the blower port creates excessive turbulence. The VacuVortex will not only eliminate the turbulence, but it will also create HEPA filtration for the unit

                                  I love my vacuum but still dont understand why it has to blow from the exhaust and make everything go flying as I try to clean. I am from a company that makes the attachment to stop the gust. The vacuum would be a game changer if each one attenuated like my patented invention the VacuVorteX™

                                  Hi Stormpap, Thank you for writing us a review. We sincerely apologize for any convenience and confusion. However, it is normal for the vacuum to both suck and blow at the same time. The air blowing out from the vacuum is part of its normal operation. It is not recommended to stop or interrupt the airflow from the blowing port, as this may strain the motor and cause it to overheat or potentially burn out. That said, there is a air diffuser (part number VT2525) available that can help disperse the strong stream of air. This accessory also provides a slight reduction in noise level and can improve the pitch of the exhaust noise on most vacuums. This part is available at your local Home Depot. If you have questions or concerns, you may call us at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.

                                    No more sawdust!
                                    We recently cleaned out the garage and found sawdust everywhere. I figured it was time to get a vacuum that connects to my saws because sweeping up afterwords was not cutting it. It takes a minute to set it up, but so much nicer. Plus it can do other things like be ready for a water spill.

                                          Be careful - the latches/handles snap off!
                                          I purchased the 10-gallon stainless WD1060 vacuum. I was handing the vacuum down from an attic opening with my friend below. The vacuum had bacteria (Zoogloea) laden water inside as I have just sucked out an air conditioner drain line that was completely clogged. As I was lowering the vacuum down through the attic hatch, with my friend holding the vacuum from below, the plastic latch/ handles gave out and the drum crashed down onto the stepladder, tilted over, splashed the contents (which is fairly disgusting) all over my friend and then down onto the hallway carpet. Quite the disgusting mess and my friend drenched.... Looking at the design of the handles, it is VERY easy for the handles to pop off of the very small round plastic pins when there is some weight in the drum. The handles do not lock in on the pins (they slip on) and look like they are designed more for easy assembly at the factory than ensuring something like what happened to us doesn't ever happen. I probably had two gallons of water in the vacuum, so not that heavy, but not that light either. Very disappointing design. I modified the handles by drilling a pilot hole into the round pins and adding a washer and screw to lock in the latches. After adding the screws I filled the drum with water up to the vacuum hole and I could lift the vacuum by the handle securely. The latch/handle is OK being plastic, but the other parts should be metal. I have added pictures of how I added the screws. I used 3 drill bits to make the hole to make sure I didn't split the plastic.

                                            It’s rare but annoying when the nozzle comes adrift during vacuuming and doubly so if the nozzle is deep under a car seat at the time so this range of locking accessories for Ridgid’s popular 2 ½ inch wet and dry shop vac’s is very useful to have. The locking mechanism itself is simple but strong and effective. Made of high quality plastic the accessory attachments fit the existing range of Ridgid shop vac’s without the need for any modification of the original vacuum tubes and extensions. In fact, there is no reason why these locking accessories will not fit any brand of 2 ½ inch vacuums.
