5 options for finding the right value vacuum bag

A vacuum bag is something you forget about, until you absolutely need one. And while running out of vacuum bags might not be as bad as running out of lightbulbs or batters or (heaven forbid) toilet paper, in the universe of household or workspace maintenance, a clean floor is the foundation of a clean space. All you have to do is make sure you’re stocked up on the right bag for your machine. Here are five value options to keep your office, workspace, or home front clean and hygienic.

Hoover is one of the first names in vacuuming, for good reason. This VEVA 30-Pack of HEPA Vacuum Bags comes in Style Q, meaning they’re compatible with the Hoover Lightweight Upright Vacuum Cleaners (model AH10000, AH10179). Made with HEPAVAC 5-layer technology and electrostatic internal filter material, they’re ideal for allergy sufferers and asthmatics. They capture particulate matter down to 0.3 microns, which is a lot of cleaning capacity for a lightweight vacuum.

Shop vacs are another level of suction entirely, and this VEVA 20 Pack of Vacuum Filter Bags, Type H, accommodates standard model shop vacs between 5 and 8 gallons (not compatible with Ridgid Vacuum). They can capture particles as small as 1 micron, allowing you to rid your workspace of cement and drywall dust, sawdust, random household debris dust, as well as the usual suspects like pollen.
Another 30-pack, these VEVA SuperVac Vacuum Bags come in Style 1/7, compatible with a range of Bissell model vacuums (PowerForce Bagged Upright Vacuum, PowerForce Bagged Vacuum, etc. See product label for full details). The SUPER VAC Micro-Allergen media filter bag can catch particles as small as 1 micron (think: dust, pet dander, pollen, and mites).
If you’re running a larger shop vac, this 15-Pack of Vacuum Filter Bags, Type F, from VEVA is a good buy. The bags are easy to install, and work with standard 10 to 14-gallon shop vacs (not compatible with Ridgid Vacuum). Even here, the SUPER VAC media filter technology in the bag will capture particles and allergens as small as 1 micron, ridding your workspace of wood dust, construction debris, pollen, dust, and other small particles.
If you run an Oreck and need to stock up, this VEVA 40-Pack SuperVac Vaccum Bags in Style BB is a value. You get the same Super Vac microallergen media filter protection, eradicating particles down to 1 micron (nasty mold spores, pollen, mites, and of course dust). The bags work with a variety Oreck Handheld Vacuum models (see product label for details), and are easy to install and replace.

In this day adn age, vacuuming your home or office note only rids the floor area of visible, unattractive particulate matter. Modern vacuum technology can actually help clean the air of your work or home space. Ridding your environment of allergens, microbes, and particulate irritants of all shapes and (tiny) sizes is especially vital in this era, as consumers pay more attention to their health and the hygiene of their living and working spaces. Buy right and you’ll breath easy.

Being in construction for years or as a startup can be challenging and lucrative. Having the right heavy equipment can make a big difference in how fast and effective you are.
