Title: wet and dry vacuum with auto pump out?
Post by: drive surgeon on November 11, 2008, 04:56:11 pm
hi guys was thinking of buying a wet n dry vacuum with an auto pump out but when i think of it with all the sludgre i will be sucking up from block paving etc the pump will get clogged up with all sorts of crap.  is that mainly for floods etc.  will a normal wet and dry vac be ok.   or do you think an auto pump out one will be more usefull especially if i connect the vac to my flat surface cleaner?  ???

why not buy a cheaper wet vac and mount a pump with a float switch  then fit a one way valve on the wet vac body and connected to the pump outlet ,cheaper than £1200 from numatic.

we use a small wet and dry and it works fine. evry job at moment looks like a swimming pool so comes in handy. you will be surprised how well it does it . it looks like all your water is still on top but it soon gets sucked up. cost us a fiver off car boot.
