Hi Melinda,



I've had great results with Miele vacuums. You can get them with HEPA filters, variable suction and a set of microtools. Add in a screen and your own soft brushes and  you're good to go. I've bought them for two museums that did not have budgets for a Nilfisk.



Good luck,

Subject:[MUSEUM-L] Affordable Museum Vacuum??

Hello Listers,

Does anyone have experience in purchasing an affordable museum vacuum? I found several products online labelled museum vacuum with the hepa filter, but they are all a couple thousand dollars. Is there a traditional vacuum that can be modified for museum purposes? A low suction option is necessary for our purposes.

Any advice is much appreciated. Will take my answers off list. :-)

Have a great day!
