Never Use A SHOP VAC Without One Of These!! (Shop Vac Filter Bags/How HEPA Filters Work...)

Almost everyone has a shop vac...and nearly everyone uses it incorrectly. Shop vacs can cause an even worse mess by distributing harmful, toxic dust around your rooms. This short video from The Honest Carpenter will show you the easiest ways to make your shop vac safe and highly effective!

FILTRATION is the biggest problem with most shop vacs. People tend to rely on the supplied canister/cartridge filter to catch everything.

These filters are good for much of the larger debris we suck up. But, they're often very poor at filtering out much smaller debris. Instead, they tend to eject these harmful particles back out into the room, where they settle on everything!

Also, the pleats in the shop vac filter can easily become clogged, bogging down the motor and making the tool work less efficiently.

The best thing to do to prevent these problems is use a SHOP VAC FILTER BAG.

These fabric bags, used in conjunction with the shop vac canister/cartridge filters, do a great job at catching the much smaller particles that normally get circulated back into the room.

They make a world of difference when vacuuming up DRYWALL DUST, which is often too small to be picked up by just the cartridge filter.

BUT, normal filter bags and cartridge filters aren't enough to catch the most dangerous debris--particles in the .3 micron range. Particles of this size slip through our filters with ease.

In order to get maximum air filtration out of your shop vac, you need to use HEPA filters--High Efficiency Particulate Air Filters. These custom filters catch up to 99.97% of particles .3 microns in size.

Rigid produces a great HEPA filter kit for their 12-16 gallon shop vacs. These HEPA shop vac filtration kits are OSHA approved for Table 1 work!
