Bagged vs. Bagless Vacuum Cleaner
Whether you have a bagless HEPA filter, a pre-filter, or disposable bags, they all need to be changed at some point. With the average life of a vacuum cleaner, you can expect to spend the same on either collection system for filters, but if you value your time, you can expect to spend quite a bit more on a bagless system.
To keep your bagless vacuum carpet cleaner operating at peak levels, you’ll need to empty the dirt container when it is full and perform regular maintenance on the filter.The type of filter the vacuum uses will determine just how much service will be required, although most use a pleated HEPA filter.
Cleaning
Even though the claim of better airflow performance with bagless vacuums is true in a sense, over the life of the vacuum you’ll get the same, or maybe even better performance from a bagged vacuum cleaner system.
With bagged vacuum cleaners, the performance will start at 100% with each new bag then slowly drop as the bag starts to fill. Just how quickly the performance drops depends on how well the bag is constructed. With the average vacuum and the average bag, you may replace the bag every 3 – 4 weeks with 90% of performance the first week, 70% in weeks 2 and 3, then 50% of less in the fourth week.
The short cycle will insure that you get a 100% peak carpet cleaning every 3 or 4 weeks from the vacuum cleaner. The filtered cyclonic machines have filters that are designed to last 6 months, 12 months, and even up to 18 months before they need to be replaced.
Pets
If you have dogs or cats, whether you see it or not, almost all domestic animals shed their fur on a regular basis throughout their lives.Pet owners often wonder as well, which vacuum is the best to remove pet hair.
For pretty much the same reasons that fur sticks to the carpet, it will also stick to your bagless vacuum’s pleated filter cartridge. The fur will reduce the performance of airflow, and is also a pain in the neck to clean off the filter.
Over time, the fiber that makes up the filter can retain odor from pets, even if you clean the filter well. If your filter requires replacing only once a year, you could end up with a vacuum that spits odors that will stink up your house pretty bad.
Bagged up
Those vacuums that use bags will often provide for neat disposal of a full bag. There are some brands such as BOSCH that actually engineer bag disposal into the system. With BOSCH canister vacuums, the replacement of bags is a single dust free step. The new mega filt bags have a built in closure system that upon removal, will slide shut and trap the dirt and debris inside of the bag, making removal quick and easy.
Still, there are many people out there who love bagless machines.Bagless vacuums will continue at a slow place to gain market share, and people will continue to buy them. For many, a bagless vacuum can be the right vacuum to have.
