3 Top tips on choosing the right vacuum cleaner

SEBO offers some handy healthy tips on what to consider when purchasing a new vacuum cleaner for your home.

Healthy Vacuum = Healthy Home

1. Upright or barrel vacuum cleaner?

SEBO E3 Komfort

Uprights are great for a large carpeted area as they are easy to manoeuvre and increase productivity, whereas a barrel could be considered for small areas with lots of furniture and hard floors.

Many vacuum cleaners, however, can do both jobs as many premises have different floors.

Also, take a look at the attachments and make sure your whole site is catered for (bear in mind you’ll be vacuuming furniture, curtains and A/C vents)

A barrel could be considered for small areas with lots of furniture and hard floors

SEBO FLOORCARE GUIDE

2. What floorcoverings do you have in your home?

It’s not just the difference between carpet or hard flooring; it’s the type of flooring fibre or material too. For example, if you have the niche Triexta carpet fibre, you’ll want a model that specifically caters for that plush pile. The SEBO X7 Boost Automatic (91542AU) with a rotating electric brush roller, large wheels, adjustable brush height and high filtration is recommended by Godfrey Hirst (Eco+) and Feltex (Redbook Green) for the correct care and maintenance of their product.

Hard flooring can be uneven so look for something designed to cope with this, such as a parquet head that comes as standard with the SEBO E3 Premium Barrel (91646AU).

3. Bag or bagless vacuum?

Allergens and bagless vacuums
Allergens in the atmosphere

Bag technology has come a long way and, if you suffer from allergies, asthma or simply want a clean emptying process, look for a machine with micro-fibre high filtration bags which keep all the dust and particles inside.

Bagless debris disposal can allow dirt and allergens to escape back into the air contributing to poor indoor air quality.

Five reasons to take better care of your carpet

Why should you take the time to learn how to take better care of your carpet?

Keep your carpet for your health and vacuum correctly.

Here are five good reasons:

Health

1. You care about the air you breathe.

Did you know that indoor air quality can be worse than that outdoors?

Proper cleaning can improve the air in your home (and car!) by removing pollutants and allergens trapped in the carpet.

Carpet cost

2. Maintaining your carpet correctly also protects your ‘back pocket’…

In the long run proper cleaning helps protect your carpet investment and safeguards you from having to replace it before its time

e.g. Australian Carpet Beetle

Looks

First Impressions Count

3. The beauty of your home requires carpet to be kept in its finest form

First impressions count

— it can be the largest surface area the eye is drawn to and widely touched by guests.

Stepping out of bed onto a lush, clean carpet is more than ever one of life’s pleasures.

4. Your time is extremely valuable.

With the pressures of our demanding lives you don’t have any time to waste on methods that don’t work properly.

5. Your home is your castle

Your place to socialise, rest, and restore. A well-cared-for carpet provides that sense of harmony and flow from room to room that will attract you to the space where you spend so much of your time.

The living room floor is made for fun times

Carpet / Health / Vacuum… So which vacuum suits?

That all depends on your carpet type and fibre. Check out SEBO’s floor guide here

Trouble vacuuming plush thick carpet?

plush carpet vacuum

You can get stuck using the wrong type of vacuum cleaner on plush carpet.

SEBO designs vacuum cleaners to suit a variety of carpet types – even tricky plush, thick, ultra soft cut pile twist. High pile and plush pile carpets need a vacuum cleaner with a good brush roller to effectively clean in and around the carpet fibres removing debris and allergens – Suction only vacuum cleaners simply cannot achieve this effectively.

SEBO X7 Boost best for plush carpet
SEBO X7 BOOST (91547AU) best for plush carpet and thick carpet piles

Many vacuum cleaners simply can’t handle thick carpet!

When it comes to vacuums, one size does not fit all. It’s important to note that your current vacuum may not work well on your fabulous new plush, thick, soft carpet. Over the past several years, it appears some vacuum manufacturers have focused on creating extremely high suction vacuums. High suction vacuums do not work well on thick, high, plush pile carpets, like Triexta, Mohawk’s SmartStrand, Choice’s Flooring Sensitive Choice Brease and Godfrey Hirst’s Eco+ softest offerings.

Most thick plush pile carpet suppliers recommend a vacuum cleaner with the following features:

  • Adjustable height
  • Electric brush roller
  • Good air flow
  • Large wheels
  • High filtration
  • Bagged upright

So, which vacuum should you purchase for thick pile / plush pile carpet?

SEBO X7 Boost Upright with electronic control height adjustment identifies the floor and the height of the carpet nap, raising or lowering the brush automatically for optimum cleaning even on plush, high pile carpet.

Anti- Allergy Vacuum Cleaner

The air is clean with SEBO Vacuums 

A good quality vacuum will of course clean the floor but a great vacuum will also enhance your indoor air quality (IAQ). Dust seems more prevalent nowadays and a lot more people suffering from allergic reactions. Best to invest in a vacuum cleaner with anti-allergy design.

a great vacuum will also enhance your
indoor air quality

SEBO FLOORCARE

Vacuum Cleaner Filtration

anti allergy vacuum design

SEBO vacuums possess 3-step filtration system consisting of:

  1. A multi layer filter bag.
  2. A micro-hygiene filter.
  3. An exhaust filter. 
Sensitive Choice Approved SEBO XP20
Sensitive Choice Approved Partner

Together they achieve excellent filter results.

SEBO E, SEBO K, SEBO X and SEBO Felix machines carry the British Allergy Foundation Seal of Approval as well as the Approval from the National Asthma Council of Australia – Sensitive Choice Program, making SEBO the perfect choice for people who suffer from allergies.

S-class Filtration

Only high-quality filter material is used in combination with an excellent sealed vacuum cleaner casing achieve the requirements of SEBO S-class filtration. 

To meet the S-CLASS standard the filtration system has to remove a minimum of 99.97% of particles of 0.3 microns. The SEBO S-CLASS system will remove 100% of particles of 1 micron and above. Dust mite faeces are approx. 10 microns.

The SEBO S-CLASS system will remove 100% of particles of 1 micron and above

SEBO S-CLASS FILTRATION STANDARD

Sealed vacuum bags – anti allergy

Sealable vacuum bags ensures that the fine dust particles stay in the closed vacuum cleaner system. SEBO domestic vacuums have S-class filtration with anti-allergy design. 
Every SEBO bag has a convenient hygiene lid to seal the bag after it is full – no dust or allergens (such as mould spores or pet dander) will escape into the ambient air.

For increased asthma and allergy protection your SEBO vacuum bag door will not close unless the filter and bag are in place.

Electrostatic filter material

Other than usual filtration systems, the SEBO filtration takes place by using the principle of electrostatics. 

Several charged micro fibres block the opposite charged particles. This allows a relative open structure that favours the air stream and at the same time lowers the chance of plugging. The result is a much smoother and long-lasting filtration.

So which vacuum suits?

Allergies: Should you remove your carpets?

Allergy and Asthma sufferers have long been told that having carpets causes allergies and allergic reactions to increase. Read this before you rip your carpets up…

Do you have allergies?

Allergen – Pet dander

…. Believe it or not, you can keep your carpets.

Do carpets cause allergies to increase? Studies have shown that carpets are often better at trapping allergens than hard flooring such as tile or hardwood.

How can carpets be better than hard floor for allergies?

Particles and allergens fall to the floor (out of the breathing zone) and onto the carpet. The fibres of the carpet trap allergens and particles, reducing their continued circulation in the air beneficial for asthma and allergy sufferers.

Minimise allergens in carpets

Proper cleaning with a SEBO vacuum cleaner effectively sucks up the dust, dirt and allergens such as pollen, pet dander, dust mites, in the carpet, locks it in the air tight machine and keeps it out of the air.

Don’t ditch your carpets solely because of allergies.

Creating a healthy home can help you and your family breathe cleaner, fresher air and potentially reduce allergic reactions or allergy-related asthma attacks.

SEBO Vacuum Cleaners remove maximum debris, retain the debris in a sealed system and disposal of the debris is hygienic.

With SEBO you clean the air you breath as well as the floors you walk on!

What you should know about Building Biology and how it affects you

We understand that Building Biology is the study how a man-made environment impacts your health.  Understanding Building Biology principles can help you create a healthier home and workplace using SEBO Vacuum Cleaners.

Indoor air quality and children
EPA studies show poor indoor air quality contributes to poor health and learning outcomes

SEBO vacuum cleaners support the Building Biology principles by:

1. Removing harmful allergens (house dust mites, mould, pet and pest dander)

Deep cleaning electric brush rollers that feature on the premium SEBO vacuum cleaner range remove maximum debris and allergens from carpets and hard floors.

Not all vacuum cleaners are the same. Tests conducted by CHOICE show SEBO vacuum cleaners can remove up to 92 percent of debris from carpets – far more than any other vacuum cleaner brand on the market.

Dust mite drop faeces

The S Class Filtration system captures house dust mites, pollen, mould spores, dust, pet and pest dander. The SEBO S-CLASS system will remove 100% of particles of 1 micron and above. Dust mite faeces are approx. 10 microns.

This method ensures that the fine dust particles and allergens stay in the closed vacuum cleaner system. Every SEBO bag has a convenient hygiene lid to seal the bag after it is full – no dust will escape.

2. Improving indoor air quality (IAQ)

Not only do our vacuum cleaners clean the floor but they also enhance the air. 

Vacuums equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration trap the dirt you can’t see, rather than sending allergens back into the air.

Cleanier air

European manufacturers use the term S-CLASS on their models.

Only high-quality filter material is used in combination with an excellent sealed vacuum cleaner casing achieve the requirements of SEBO S-CLASS filtration. 

The Sensitive Choice® blue butterfly symbol appears on products and services that may be a better choice for people with asthma or allergies.

Bag or Bagless Vacuum

Bag technology has come a long way and, if you suffer from allergies, asthma or simply want a clean emptying process, look for a machine with micro-fibre high filtration vacuum bags which keep all the dust and allergy particles inside.

All SEBO vacuums are bagged technology – more hygienic!

Debris Collection and Disposal

Vacuum bags add another level of filtration – best for hygienic debris disposal

Vacuuming is a great way to improve indoor air quality. Choosing a machine which captures the debris in a filter bag will decrease the chances of dust blow back. The advantage of using is a filter bag is that it is disposable thus you don’t’ have to worry exposing yourself to the harmful dust.
