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?

How a Ducted Vacuum System Can Improve Your Life

When many people think of vacuum cleaners, they imagine the kind of portable unit that needs to be dragged from room to room while vacuuming.

While these kinds of units continue to be used, it's also important to know that there are more centralised options available, which can help to make your life more convenient and your home a better place to live in.

The ducted system is an example of a huge improvement over more portable vacuum cleaner units. It's no wonder this type of system is continuing to grow in popularity in Melbourne and beyond. Here are a number of key benefits offered by this kind of technology.

A Ducted Vacuum System has Stronger Suction

The idea here is that a more portable vacuum cleaner will only have suction power commensurate to the size and efficiency of its motor coupled with the efficiency of its filtration system and its collection method. The smaller the vacuum cleaner, usually the weaker its performance.

Now, compare this to a ducted system where the motor has to be rather large because it has to provide suction power through various ducts to different areas of the house, office or property.

A larger motor means higher suction strength, and this will be appreciated by the user, especially when attempting to vacuum larger, heavier or more numerous pieces of debris.

A Ducted Vacuum System Offers Cleaner Interior Air

One of the problems of a traditional portable vacuum cleaner is that it isn't a closed cycle.

Even with the cleanest filter in place, there is still going to be some dust, pollen, allergens or other tiny debris which will be ejected back into the room being cleaned.

This is a problem, especially if there are people in the vicinity who may suffer from asthma, allergies, or other respiratory issues.

 A ducted system is able to avoid this because it offers 100% filtrationis. The dirt and debris that is vacuumed up goes into the ducts and is ejected safely outside.

This results in much cleaner interior air, which will offer significant health benefits to the people who live or work there.

A Ducted Vacuum System is Easier to Use

Many Melbourne homes and properties have stairways that need to be vacuumed.

A traditional vacuum cleaner will tend to be a pain to use in these areas because of the need to drag the unit up and down steps while balancing and vacuuming.

A ducted system does away with this hassle because there is no portable unit to lug around. There is only the hose which will follow you as you proceed up or down the stair case and is so light and easy to manipulate.

Ducted vacuum

Since there is no portable unit to worry about, there's less of a need to navigate carefully around furniture, over thick carpet, or manoeuvring around the pieces of furniture within the room.

You will certainly find that the centralised (ducted) system is more convenient to use, and as a result you will suffer from fewer aches and pains, less wear and tear on carpets, floors, walls and furniture, and less time used up by annoying vacuuming chores.
