Volta Ducted vacuum Vs. Portable vacuum cleaners

How can you decide on which vacuuming system to use in your home?

Sometimes, when a vacuum cleaner goes bad, there may be confusion concerning which type will make a better replacement.

Portable vacuum cleaners are quite common and are used worldwide to clean houses and have been fitted with HEPA filters which are fitted on the air outlet part of the machine to prevent the majority of the dust from going back into the air.

This portable vacuum cleaner is an incredible innovation especially for health reasons for individuals in that vicinity.

Its efficiency in regards to keeping the living area of the home free from allergens is only supposed by a Ducted vacuum System.

Difference between ducted vacuum cleaners and a portable vacuum cleaner.

The portable vacuum cleaner, which is either bagged or bagless, has a motor which is built into the system with a short hose (about 2 meters) fitted inside.

As a result one needs to keep the motor unit close at hand whilst doping the cleaning – ie pulling the unit all around the home.

These motor units can be quite noisy and uncomfortable, imagine having to carry the machine up a flight of stairs.

With any portable cleaner the vacuumed/exhausted air remains within the living area of the home and thus there is always a degree of dust mites, allergens, pollens etc. that are exhausted back into the rooms.

Ducted vacuum systems, also called a central vacuum systems, are a lot different as they have a motor which is installed away from the living area of the home- such as the garage.

The Ducted vacuum is much longer and is usually between 9 and 12 meters in length.

The hose cuff can be plugged into the different inlets, and the dust can be vacuumed out through pipes to the primary unit.

This central system has the advantage of being a quiet system since it the motor is located away from the living area ensuring that the vacuumed air and dust etc. is entirely removed from the home.

The Volta Ducted system uses a lightweight/crushproof hose which can easily be moved around in the home.

Blockages are rare in the ducted vacuum system so long as the installation has be completed to the appropriate standards (see our DIY booklet).

Our Ducted vacuum system will perform at least as good as if not much better than any portable cleaner.

Also, the ducted vacuum cleaner has been proven to reduce allergens in the air which could trigger asthma and allergies and improves the general quality of air in a home.

The ducted vacuum cleaners can be enhanced by running an exhaust and a muffler to the outskirts of a building.

Today, ducted vacuum systems have been approved in Australia and New Zealand by the National Asthma Council in Australia and also, the Asthma and Respiratory Foundation NZ.

The ducted system is also a part of the prestigious sensitive choice partner program and is the only brand that has been adopted by these organizations.

Now that you have considered the differences between both devices, why don’t you opt for a cleaner and healthier air in your home with the Ducted vacuum Systems?
