Vådtørstøvsugere

Vådtørstøvsugere, also known as wet/dry vacuums, are versatile cleaning appliances capable of handling both liquid spills and dry debris. Unlike traditional vacuums designed solely for dry dust and dirt, vådtørstøvsugere are equipped with features that allow them to safely and effectively pick up liquids. This dual functionality makes them ideal for a wide range of tasks, from cleaning up basement floods and garage messes to tackling everyday spills in kitchens and workshops.

The design of a vådtørstøvsuger typically includes a robust motor, a collection tank that can accommodate both wet and dry materials, and often a float mechanism that automatically shuts off the vacuum when the liquid level reaches a maximum capacity, preventing motor damage. For dry vacuuming, a filter is used to trap dust and particles. When switching to wet pickup, this filter is usually removed or a different type of filter is employed to prevent it from becoming saturated and ineffective.

Common applications for vådtørstøvsugere include household cleaning such as carpet cleaning, water extraction from flooded areas, and cleaning up after DIY projects. They are also frequently found in automotive detailing, workshops, and industrial settings where a variety of cleaning challenges may arise. The ability to switch between wet and dry modes makes them a practical and cost-effective solution for comprehensive cleaning needs.
