How To Choose A Backpack Vacuum Cleaner?

Options To Consider:
One Stage or Two Stage Vacuum Motors - "Stages" work like gears in a car's transmission, ramping up the speed. The more "Stages" the better the "suction" for getting out more dirt - hence, cleaner carpets!
"Power Head" vs. Standard Floor Tool - A "Power Head" is a motorized beater bar brush attachment that hits the floor running! High RPM's or fast turning by the motor of the brush turns back the carpet nap for deeper more effective cleaning. Sandia Vacuums with Power Heads provide outstanding performance vs. standard floor tools alone!
"Backpack" vs. "Hip Vac" - A "Backpack" can have a larger motor for more power and larger dirt bag capacity for longer times between bag changes. "Backpacks" have a full back harness with ergonomic design for comfort and overall weight control. A "Hip Vac" offers smaller, lighter performance for worker speed and body flexibility. "Hip Vacs" attach like a belt and are less obtrusive to doing other jobs while wearing. (Customer Feedback Strongly Prefers Backpacks vs. Hip Vacs!)
"HEPA" Filtration - "HEPA" stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air (filter) and this type of filtration can remove 99.97% of all particles 0.3 microns and larger. HEPA vacuums are essential for mold clean-ups and they can make an exceptional difference in the quality of the air. "HEPA" Filtration is achieved by additional filters for your vacuum cleaner's exhaust.
