How are water filter vacuum cleaners different from traditional vacuum cleaners?

Water filter vacuum cleaners such as the Technovap Vac 14 looks just like a traditional vacuum cleaner – only that it has water inside. You have to put water in its tank, and then you must empty it after using. One thing that the traditional vacuum cleaners cannot perform is cleaning on wet or dry surfaces. The water filter vacuum cleaner can do both. It no longer has a dust bag that needs to be replaced from time to time, as you simply pour out the dirty water after you finish cleaning.

How does water work as a filter?

How does the water filter work like in the new Technovap Vac 14 water filter vacuum cleaner? As soon as pollen, dust, dirt and other tiny impurities in the air are forced into the primary chamber, water automatically bonds and dissolves these particles. At the same time, the motor is being protected by a special hydrophobic filter so that the water will not enter it.

Dust and dirt particles are getting trapped as it is bonded with water just before it is being sent to the basin. Meanwhile, nitrogen, argon, oxygen, carbon dioxide and other gases are free to pass through it.

What is it made of?

The Technovap Vac 14 water filter vacuum cleaner contains a dust chamber and a suction assembly. In the dust chamber is a dust collector assembly with a dust collection seat and an upper cap. The collection seat has 2 compartments: filter chamber with water and airflow chamber. Both of these are linked with each other through an airflow duct.

What are the advantages?

The Technovap Vac 14 water filter vacuum cleaner has the ability to remove pollen, bacteria and other allergens from it surface. Such is essentially beneficial to those that have dust allergy or asthma.

In contrast with the traditional vacuum cleaners, allergens that enter the machine are still thrown back into the air after suction. But water filter vacuum cleaners can be installed with an optional HEPA True Filtration system, which add finer filtration for the tiniest germs and bacteria on carpets and floors.

What is the disadvantage?

There are still some people who do not prefer water filter vacuum cleaner because it is bulky. This is because of the water tank inside it. Especially when emptying it, it takes a lot of effort to do so, which makes it not suitable for senior citizens and the physically disabled. However, that’s an old story! Now, the Technovap Vac 14 water filter vacuum cleaner is developed to be much lighter than the first generation of water filter vacuum cleaners.

Water filter vacuum cleaners vs. Ordinary vacuum cleaners

A common problem with ordinary vacuum cleaners, some dust escapes to the atmosphere. Generally, dust cannot escape water. But with the new technology now, vacuum cleaners have already its water filtration thus, there is absolutely no dust escapes during operation.

Water filtering is a great advantage especially necessary for those who have dust allergy or asthma because dust and other elements can no longer be airborne. The air intake passes through water where everything is well-trapped. It can filter 100% of dust, mites, pollen and even the tiniest particles unlike ordinary vacuum cleaners. Another type of filtration these machines have is called HEPA filters for an even finer filtration.  These kinds of filtration, HEPA and water filters are necessary for hospitals where we need to get rid of the tiniest bacteria and germs on the floor.

These machines are also capable of cleaning wet/dry surfaces. There is no need to wait for the floor to be dry to start cleaning. A very useful feature to laundry shops surface that are always wet.

Some water filter vacuum cleaners as being bulky, heavy and expensive, but now, there are models that are very easy to drag around that even aged and disabled individuals are able to work with it. Bulky or not, these machines are worth paying for.

“The reason I made a switch from ordinary vacuum cleaner to this new water filter vacuum cleaner when I had my first daughter 2 years ago who was born with asthma. I cannot bear hearing her having the difficulty to breathe every time I clean the house. Honestly, it is not that cheap to buy water filtration system vacuum cleaners, but with its advantages and how it can benefit your health and those living with you, makes you realize that this is a worthy investment.”
