What is a wet and dry vacuum cleaner?

A wet and dry vacuum cleaner (or an industrial vacuum cleaner) is a vacuum cleaner designed for cleaning, for example, construction waste, wastewater and similar dirt that ordinary vacuum cleaners have difficulty handling.

The wet/dry vacuum cleaner is a further development of the ordinary household vacuum cleaner and has been developed to meet the demands of the craft, industry and cleaning sectors. The wet/dry vacuum cleaner differs from the normal vacuum cleaner by also being able to vacuum up water. It is not dependent on a bag being inserted, but filters using a folded paper filter, which is available either as a flat filter placed at the top of the vacuum cleaner, or a filter cartridge that protrudes into the dust container. Wet/dry vacuum cleaners are very popular in crafts and industrial trades, as they are very versatile, simple and robust. The motor part is built in a so-called bypass system, where the electrical parts are separated from the suction turbine. This is a prerequisite for being able to vacuum up moist dirt or water with the vacuum cleaner.

The machine is very versatile, but its greatest application is where there are larger amounts of dust or wet dirt. Since it can also vacuum up liquids, it can be used for cleaning up after floods, clogged drains, vacuuming up drifting snow and similar tasks.

You cannot use an ordinary vacuum cleaner to vacuum up moist dirt or water, as the vacuum cleaner will be damaged and, in the worst case, break down.
