Glossary

Waterlift - this is a measure of vacuum suction. It is a standardized measurement in which the vacuum is connected to a U-shaped tube filled with water. The vacuum is attached to one side of the tube and is turned on. The motor suction creates a vacuum in the tube and causes the water to raise in the tube. The height the water will raise in the tube is measured and is referred to as "waterlift". For example, a 100 inch waterlift means the the vacuum motor was able to raise the column of water in the tube 100 inches.

Air Flow - this is a measure of the volume of air that is moving through the vacuum. The air volume is measured in cubic feet of air per minute. This is called a "CFM" rating. For example, a rating of 150 CFM means that 150 cubic feet of air is passing through the vacuum per minute.

Important Considerations

There are many factors factors that contribute to a vacuum cleaner's cleaning performance.

• Vacuum Suction (waterlift) and Air Flow (cfm) -  Good suction is the power needed to pull in the dirt and debris into the vacuum. Good air flow is needed to carry the dirt and debris into the dust bag. A vacuum with high suction and poor air flow with not provide good cleaning performance. Additionally, a vacuum with good air flow and poor suction will also perform poorly. Therefore, a vacuum must have both good suction and good air flow characteristics.

• Operating Tools - Properly designed, used and maintained tools will improve cleaning performance. For example, power heads have roller brushes that rotate and agitate floor materials and should operate at the correct height. If they are too low, there is not enough carpet agitation due to the material resistance and there may be inadequate air flow due to the low opening between the carpet and tool. Too high a setting and there will not be deep enough fiber agitation to remove deeper dirt and debris.

• Sealed System Performance - A vacuum can have great tools, suction and air flow, but if it it has poor filtration capability or leaks particles back into the home rather than retain them in the vacuum cleaner, then overall, it is a poor performer. Not only does a leaky vacuum cleaner make your house dirtier and dustier, but you will be exposed to potential allergen triggers that can exasperate a family's allergy and asthma suffering.

SEBO vacuums are designed as a system. They have taken into consideration all the factors of suction, air flow, tool design and provide a certified and tested sealed system to ensure optimum cleaning performance. This is what makes them the perfect choice for Asthma and Allergy sufferers as well as anyone that wants a high quality, reasonably priced vacuum cleaner that will continue perform for years.
