Dust extraction !!

[judge]

Ive just spent 3 hrs on the internet looking for a vac for work .something that will be able to handle grinding dust aswell as the usual grout and dust work involved.Also something that doesnt need bags . As usual ive confused myself even more looking at lots of sites (dust extractors,vacs,work vacs ,site vacs,powertool vacs,powertool dust extraction etc ,etc ....) As everything in life im trying not to spend a great deal at moment as im only starting out and the last six months has been quite an expensive time:yikes:. Anybody got any recomendations ???

Have a look at the hire centres, they will have somethink..

I use a Henry for hoovering.

I want a Charles, same as a Henry, but does the water wash, too... and can cope with anything, I'm told...

I would advise you to get something with a power take off socket. That means your power tool can be plugged into the cleaner and it switches on and off with the power tool. This is similar to mine. You can see the socket near the top. If you need 110v you may need to pay a bit more.

I bought an Edward from Screwfix when they had him on offer. This replaced my old vac that didn't have a bag. This one has and even when full still sucks up dust. With the filter in no dust in the air. Recommended.

I had a Henry, he had enough and blew himself up so I went down to B&Q and picked up one of the cheapy wet and drys, performance and power I think its called. Cost 20 something quid and has twice the suck of my henry and has lasted well over 18 months, a bargain if you ask me.

I have no idea what I have done to the post above...

I was well impressed with it, I thought it would only last me a couple of weeks but its still going strong. Has no weight to it at all and could suck granny off the toilet :smilewinkgrin:

So what's it called, got a link? We only have a mini B&Q here, they don't sell anything like that, I need links and names...
