Power and its nuances

So, the declared power of the engine can be 2000 W, and at the same time it will suck it bad, leaving garbage on the carpeting. Therefore, it is very important to know which suction index is acceptable:

• For the cleaning of the apartment and small areas, units with an indicator of 300 units are suitable.
• If you have a big house, then buy yourself a device with the designation 400AW and even a large suction parameter.

Important! If you bought a vacuum cleaner with a suction power of 450 units, and remove a small area - it's ok. With this use, the unit itself is rebuilt and selects the most optimal operating mode.

Based on the above data, we strongly recommend that you do not pay attention to the marketing moves of marketers, when they claim that the power of 2500 watts is an indicator of absorption, it is not so. Worldwide, the most powerful unit is characterized by a suction index of 900 units.
