ProTeam Vacuums

Proper Fit for Your ProTeam Commercial Backpack Vacuum

Are you wearing your commercial backpack vacuum correctly?  

• Make sure the waist belt in cinched tight, on your natural waist (not around your hips).  
• The straps should be snug on your torso.  You shouldn’t feel the weight of the machine on your shoulders.

To know if you have your ProTeam backpack on correctly, put your arms straight out from your sides.  If you can see space between the shoulder strap and your shoulders, you have it on correctly!

Easy vacuuming!

 

Hardwood Floor Facts

When using the correct tools, ProTeam backpack vacuums clean 52% faster than a dust mop in crowded classrooms and congested areas.

No. 1 Using traditional dust mopping 

methods requires extensive time 

to train employees.

No. 2 Vacuuming is a faster, 

healthier, and more efficient 

way to clean hard floors.

No. 3 Dust and dirt are immediately 

contained within the Four Level 

Filtration in ProTeam vacuums.

No. 4 Dust mopping continually 

redistributes dirt and fine 

particulate on and into the 

floor, leaving scratches and 

dulling a high gloss finish.

No. 5 Dust bunnies reappear in 24 

hours when a floor has been 

dust mopped as compared to 

72 hours when cleaned with a 

ProTeam backpack vacuum.

Carpet Facts

Daily vacuuming is more important than interim deep cleaning methods.

Dry soil is abrasive; when ground into your carpet, it cuts into carpet fibers— dulling appearance and reducing the longevity.

No. 1 Carpets cover 70% of the 

floors in the United States.

No. 2 Carpet can hold more than 

its weight in soil.

No. 3 70–80% of dust, dirt, and 

grime is tracked into a 

building from outside.

No. 4 30% of dirt is deposited in 

the first 3 feet, while 90% is 

tracked off in the first 25 feet.

No. 5 Carpet soil generally consists 

of 85–95% dry soil and 

5–15% oily soil.

No. 6 Carpet has a high surface area 

and is known to act as an 

organic dust sink containing 

bio-contaminants and allergens.

Quick fact: Get schooled on carpets

Carpet covers 31% of space in new K-12 facilities and 40% in new colleges (see American School & University’s 31^st Annual Office Education Construction Report, May 2005). Carpet is a well-known sink for dirt, animal dander, pollen, dust mites and other asthma triggers. High-level suction and filtration removes asthma triggers that cause health problems.
