FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Powr-Flite, a leading manufacturer of professional cleaning equipment, announces the development of an entirely reengineered backpack vacuum.
The new Comfort Pro backpacks are designed to be more comfortable and more effective than backpacks now available while also safeguarding indoor air quality and the environment.
And because they have just earned the coveted Gold Seal of Approval from the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI), users can rest assured these machines will perform at industry-leading levels while providing superior operator comfort.
The Comfort Pro backpack vacuum is available in both a 6-quart and 10-quart capacity. Both come equipped with a high-quality tool kit; a 50-foot safety-yellow power cord; and two HEPA* filter bags.
According to Eric Hickman, product manager for Powr-Flite, “One of the things that make these backpack vacuums so comfortable to use is their lightweight, ergonomically designed harness, manufactured for us exclusively by Deuter, the number one manufacturer of outdoor hiking backpacks in the world.”
In addition to this improved harness, the machine’s features include:
- Reduced Noise. The standard model Comfort Pro is a quiet 68 decibels; the premium system produces only 62 decibels, making it one of the quietest backpack vacuum cleaners in the industry.
- Reduced Operating Temperature. The Comfort Pro premium model features a patent-pending system that pulls warm air away from the operator to keep them cool and comfortable.
- Hands-Free Operation. All of the Comfort Pro’s tools are designed to clip onto the waist belt of either machine, providing easy access and improving worker productivity.
- Four Levels of Filtration. Along with HEPA filters, both systems come with a washable, reusable cloth microfilter; a pre-motor filter that protects the motor and the machine’s components; and an easy-to-access, washable, reusable post-motor filter.
“In the course of developing these machines, we meticulously examined every detail, from how well they perform to how comfortable they are to use,” says Hickman. “We believe our engineers have really succeeded with the Comfort Pro.”
