Good afternoon, fellow TexCon'ers - Here’s a link to a seller of the
HEPA filter vacuum cleaner that I recommend highly (and use myself in my
private practice). Click on the following link to view the Euroclean UZ964H HEPA HIP Style
BACKPACK at The Vac Shop North, Inc.: http://www.vacsrus.com/CartGenie/prodInfo.asp?pid=10&cid=8
Yes, the vacuum cleaner costs less than $400. Of course, by the time
you add in the cost of the HEPA filters, etc., it is more than $400. But
considerably less than a Nilfisk vacuum. The EuroClean has an optional floor
nozzle available that makes vacuuming floors/carpeting easier. Since the
vacuum cleaner is worn around your waist (think obi-like), it is very easy to
use when vacuuming textiles/costumes while on exhibit. I also like that you
don’t trip over the thing since you are wearing it. No speed control however. I
use the micro-vacuum attachments at the nozzle. Regards, Margaret (Meg) Geiss-Mooney Textile/Costume Conservator mgmooney@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- -- |
