Wide Area Vacuums
Any vacuum that employs a vacuum shoe of 20” and higher is
considered a wide-area vacuum. Most models range from 24”-30”.
Wide area vacuums operate on the same “clean air system” as dual
motor uprights, only in a larger capacity. In most cases, these units
will employ dual vacuum motors to compensate for the larger
opening. These units are designed to be used in large open areas of
carpet or long hallways. Wide area vacuums can offer high filtration and
increased productivity over uprights. Most wide area vacuums utilize a single
brush-roller, some (including the NuWave) employ dual counter-rotating brush
technology. Windsor products include:

Sweeper/Vacs
Over the past five years, sweeper/vacs have seen a steady
increase in replacing cord electric wide area vacuums. This
is based primarily on the tremendous increase in
productivity with a sweeper/vac that is obtained by
eliminating the cord and by utilizing battery power.
Sweeper/vacs operate similar to impeller vacuums, except
