Using A Wet And Dry Vacuum Cleaner

By Michelle Bery

Household maintenance is an ongoing process. Just when you think you’ve wiped up the last crumb, dusted the last shelf, and mopped the last undefined floor stickiness, it starts all over again. Vacuuming can be the toughest part; different messes require different clean up. With a wet and dry vacuum cleaner you can handle any type of mess.

A wet and dry vacuum cleaner – also known as a shop vac – has the ability to clean dry material such as dirt, debris, and other allergens, as well as wet messes such as small spills or even larger floods resulting from appliances or water that has collected in a basement after an excessive rain. With one flip of a switch, the wet and dry vacuum cleaner can go from one project to another seamlessly. The design of the wet and dry vacuum is simple; a hose – that comes standard with several attachments – plugs into a large tub canister that is usually on wheels allowing you to move freely from one spot to another. The tub should be emptied periodically and can be done so by lifting the lid of the tub and removing the motor.

While a wet and dry vacuum cleaner is far too large and awkward to be conducive to every day cleaning, it has enormous functionality in tackling more complex projects. And the wider hose allows it to pick up a variety of materials without the threat of it getting clogged. For these reasons a wet and dry vacuum cleaner is kept by homeowners to handle larger projects and by industrial cleaning crews that tackle considerable clean-ups on a frequent basis.

While these systems are rarely found in your local retail outlet, finding a suitable wet and dry vacuum cleaner can be as easy as visiting your nearest home improvement store. Do some research before you go, however, so that you can narrow down choices by user and industrial reviews, inclusion of attachments that will meet your needs, and price. When you find a wet and dry vacuum cleaner that is suitable for your requirements then you’re ready to purchase.
