REDUCING THE POWER OF VACUUMS

REDUCING THE POWER OF VACUUMS

Europe’s energy saving and environmental protection policy reduces the power of vacuums Over recent years we have seen an increase in many energy saving initiatives from the government. Since the passing of these proposals it has encouraged many organizations and households to do what they can to help the environment and reduce energy.

Now the European commission and European bureaucrats have created the Europe’s energy saving and environmental protection policy to reduce the maximum power of vacuum cleaners in a bid to save energy.

Although the cleanliness of some households may suffer, cost savings is one reward we would love to reap. The current economic state going greener may result in the reduction of energy costs. However, it is health issues that are reining the counter argument. According to the Telegraph, ‘manufacturers say it could also reduce cleaners' ability to remove fine particles from the air they pump back into the atmosphere, potentially leading to nasty side-effects for allergy and asthma sufferers.’

With many issues being raised, the European commission may have to redraft their proposal. 

The ERP180 from Numatic International delivers a 30% reduction in energy consumption with their highest efficiency motor and still provides the same professional, high-performance cleaning results you expect from a Numatic machine, while saving you money too.
