Meet EPA Lead-Safe Guidelines
The Dustless HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum employs a certified HEPA filter to meet EPA RRP lead-safe guidelines. It is certified to IEST-RP-CC001.5 insuring a minimum filtration efficiency of 99.97% at 0.3 micron. Be safe - go Dustless.
Switch from Wet to Dry Operation Without Stopping
Unlike other HEPA vacuums, the Dustless HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum can be used to vacuum up water without fear of getting your valuable HEPA filter wet. A baffle wall inside the canister keeps water from reaching the HEPA filter, under normal operation. Go back and forth between wet and dry operation without stopping to change filters or make other adjustments.
Quiet and Powerful
The Dustless HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum emits only 81 decibels of noise and has a powerful motor that runs at 24,140 RPMs that produces 76.9-inch water lift at 126-CFM. The 16 gallon canister and micro pre-filter bag support optimum air flow while holding up to 40 pounds of dirt and debris. Other vacuums lose suction after ingesting just several pounds of dust.Delta 18-900L , Shop Fox W1668, Porter-Cable 513 , Makita RF1101KIT2, PacTool International, Makita 9741, Festool TS 55 EQ, Makita TW1000, Makita 5402NA, Hitachi NV83A3 , SKIL 3410-02, Bosch HDH181-01 , Grizzly G0654 , Bosch 4100DG-09, Festool 571810, Stanley Bostitch N75C-1, Hakko Soldering Station FX-951, StripinatorTM Model 808, DEWALT DC300K, Hitachi NV75AG, Steel City Tool Works 40300H, DEWALT DCS330L , DEWALT D55154 , Milwaukee 6180-20, Shop Fox W1671, JET JML 1014VSI, Panasonic EY7540LN2L, DEWALT DCK298L2, QEP 61024, Makita 2705 , Triton TRA001, Makita LC1230 , Flex LE12-3-100 , JET 629004K, Bosch 24618-01, Bosch 11263EVS, JET J-41002, Jancy USA-101, BLUEROCKTM BRM 35, Festool 567696 , Steel City Tool Works 40100, Rol-Air Air Compressor , Max CN565S 1-3, Hobart 500502 , Festool 583492 , Makita 6935FDWDEX, Makita JN1601, Jet JJP-8BT, Bosch MX30EL-37

What's in the Box
Dustless HEPA Wet/Dry Vacuum comes with certified HEPA filter, two extension wands, crevice tool, utility nozzle, one micro pre-filter bag, 12-foot crush-proof hose, and 16-gallon capacity canister. The motor is 5 horsepower, 10.6 amp 120-volts with a 15-foot power cord.
STRENGTHS: It is worth watching the videos so you can understand the strengths of the vacuum. This unit can suck up things like concrete dust then water with no problem. Very little dust gets out if any when you empty the drum and that alone is a big help. If the vac tips over in use the HEPA filter is very unlikely to get wet. There is a HEPA filter, filter cover and filter bag all of which are sub micron. The suction is strong considering the level of filtration. The vac holds a lot and the bags are reasonably priced for what the do. These are not simple paper bags of old and they are near the size of coffee sack (large). The hose is high quality and the attachments work well. If you really compare all the strengths this vac can not be beat - at least we could not find one that was better.

FITTINGS: Some of the fittings can fall off but if you have used this kind of stuff you know that some fitting on vacuums can also get stuck on and for me personally I rather they fall off occasionally. They are friction fittings so they are as tight as you cram them on, so you can make them tighter if you want to.
This unit is great for abatement or many other uses. You really do not need to be breathing dust and lead and asbestos are only the tip of the iceberg so to speak. Those are just some of the very very few toxins they have budget to regulate.
Some classics that you might be exposed to that you really should not breathe:
Insulation (much like asbestos)
Drywall
Aluminum oxide from sand paper
Titanium from paint (whitener)
Wood dust (well known to harm the lungs)
Plastic (if you cut, router or sand plastic)
Ever wonder what grinding disks, saw blades and the stuff they coat drill bits is made of? Not likely you should breath it as those slowly wear down.
Mold
Glues and adhesives (like if you remove flooring and such)
The list goes on so why not protect yourself to the sub-micron level?

TO BUYERS:
Get an attachment that is fuzzy on the end (dusting) if you can.
TO THE MANUFACTURER:
The exhaust should be able to be ported out a hose if needed - needs a port - port could be a sound muffler also.
Consider, having different wheels (non-swivel) on the back so the vac handles better and does not take off sideways for the first 6" to a foot.
Consider making the cord opposite the hose on the front rather than the same and yet have the switch on the front.
Ensure nails can not pop the bag.

The vacuum works great! With the Dustless pre filter bag I couldn't even see any dust in the container after filling up half the bag. When dealing with wet or sticky paint the inside of the hose will tend to get coated with the gunk. The hose is super maneuverable and flexible but does need to be cleaned well when dealing with sticky paint chips or dust.
