What vacuum cleaner is best for pet hair?

For pet lovers, it’s always nice to have our little friends around us when we’re at home. Their innocence and cuteness can relieve you from stress and fatigue from work. They make you feel loved.

However, as much as we love our pets, there is one thing that all owners are afraid of: pet hair. This is even more accurate for those who have cats or dogs.

If you don’t clean your place frequently, there are high chances that you’ve been breathing in hair-filled air all day long.

That being said, if this is happening to you, you’ll need to have the room cleaned, and fast. A reliable vacuum cleaner is certainly a great help when it comes to this matter, but first, you’ll need to have yourself the best vacuum cleaner for pet hair.

Hence, in this post, we’ll be showing you all the important factors when it comes to picking your new vacuum cleaner.

Suction power

First things first, regardless of the features and pricing, your vacuum must come with decent suction power, so that it can collect all the scattered hairs in your apartment. If your vacuum has a low suction power, chances are that you won’t collect any dirt and pet hair with it. That being said, your vacuum cleaner should come with a suction power no less than 1000W. Plus, if you have carpet in your house, you might want to invest in a vacuum with even more power.

Maneuverability

In addition, depending on your preferences, the vacuum should come with certain maneuverability, so you can work well with it. To start with, you should care about the weight of your vacuum. Try to go for lightweight vacuum cleaners, instead of heavy ones. The reduced weight and size will make it much easier for you to work in tight spaces.

If you only have a small apartment, and pet hair is your main concern, then handheld vacuums will be a better choice for you, since you can use them for a more concentrated cleaning approach.

Vacuuming head and attachment

Along with the suction power, your vacuum heads play an important role in cleaning up pet hairs. That being said, for this specific type of waste, the flat vacuuming heads with soft bristles are recommended. The unique design works well on most surfaces and floor types, so you’ll find it relatively easy cleaning up your pet hair.

Filtration

You might not know this, but your filter has a close connection to the air quality. That’s because when your vacuum cleaner is operating, it also releases air into the atmospheres. So, if the filtration isn’t working properly, you might breathe in hair-filled air without notice. Hence, it’s recommended that your vacuum cleaner is HEPA filtered.

Bagged vs bagless

Last but not least, we have the ever-raging controversy, and it’s about the use of bagged and bagless vacuum cleaners. Some people believe that using bagged vacuums will help to reduce the amount of dirt being returned to the atmosphere, and some think that using bagless vacuum cleaners is more economic. For us, we think it’s a matter of preference,since not all products are perfect, and the results greatly depend on the owner.

It could possibly be the opening switch at the back of the GD drive. It may be thinking the door is open. I have had an issue like this before and I sprayed contact cleaner in the switch which fixed it. Take the cover off and try moving the leaver by hand then switching it on. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET AN ELECTRIC SHOCK

edit------

It may also be worthwhile re-seating the GD Drive as the connection between GD drive and motherboard may not be good.
