Did You Know Eureka Upright Vacuum is a Green Product
For all you Green guys out there, a Eureka Upright Vacuum can actually help the air quality in your home! That and pick up dirt from your floor. Who would have thought? And you can even use it on floors that aren’t carpeted!
Really—some upright vacuums add to their primary role with recent technologies that can clean the air, in addition to picking up dirt on the floor. Cyclonic systems is one such technology, that contains the air inside the vacuum mechanism, then puts it through a HEPA filter before pushing it out into the room again. You can see the potential benefits to all asthma and allergy sufferers. HEPA filters trap fine particles (think airborne pollen and dust mite excrement—ughh!) that can trigger problems for such people.
That’s impressive, particularly when one thinks that the original HEPA filter was invented in during World War II and was used in the Manhattan Project to trap airborne radioactive particles.
The technology is quite interesting. HEPA filters are made of a mat of fibres of fiberglass between 0.5 and 2.0 micron. That’s pretty small, and one can imagine that they would catch a lot of the problematic particles in the air of your house. The filter intercepts the bad particles and traps them by making them adhere to the filter.

I’m sure you’re all tired of changing those dirty, dusty bags from your upright. Well the Eureka Upright Vacuum is a bagless cleaner, so not only can you avoid spreading more dirt in the air because no bag change is needed, you can also save money by not having to buy replacement bags.
Let’s look at one Eureka Upright Vacuum model—the Sanitaire 4570. Eureka is the oldest and most well known in the business. It has a fully sealed HEPA motor—unrivaled by other makes. Traditionally marketed to commercial users, it’s designed to be run 8 hours a day, each day of the week, so it could well last a lifetime for you. That would save you money over the long term as well.
The Eureka Upright Vacuum Sanitaire 4570 includes a double ball bearing design, that’s meant to last twice as long as ordinary domestic vacuums. It has a heat protection design to keep it from overheating, and a really long cord—50 feet—that makes it easy to avoid plugging in, then moving the plug repeatedly around your house when you clean. It has some great tools, including a dusting brush made of horsehair, and it has adjustments for 7 levels of carpet. This model has a lot of suction power, with a wider than usual base, so you can cover more floor area with each pass, along with a bristle ball bearing brush roll that really adds to the sucking power, and even the belt can be changed easily.
