Principle of operation

The washing vacuum cleaner works on the same technology as conventional vacuum cleaners for dry cleaning. The difference is that the washing vacuum retracts dust dissolved in water.

This is not very convenient if clean water is over and in order to pour a new batch, you will have to interrupt the cleaning, turn off the appliance, remove the container, fill it and then install it again.

Have horizontal vacuum cleaners this problem is solved - it will not be difficult to replenish the supply of clean water. The tank for clean water is located on the outside of the case. Therefore, these models are more convenient to use.
