This no nonsense 16 Gallon wet dry vacuum cleaner has the power, durability and collection capacity to be the jobsite workhorse. Includes: 6. 5 peak HP shop vacuum cleaner, 7-foot locking hose; 2-1/2-inch accessories utility nozzle, car nozzle, wet nozzle, 2 extension wands, WS21200F standard Qwik Lock vacuum filter, owner’s manual. Also compatible with WS22200F Fine Dust Filter and WS23200F HEPA Media Cartridge Filters, and for wet pick-up, the WS24200F Wet Filter. At WORKSHOP, we use real-life wet and dry messes in our testing, and design our vacuums to strike the best balance between airflow and sealed suction. Airflow measures CFM (cubic feet per minute) or volume of air moved, which is important when picking up dry messes. Sealed Suction (inches) measures the raw strength of suction when picking up liquids. The measurement that best captures both aspects of suction is Max Air Watts tested to ASTM standard, and the WS1600VA has among the highest in its class. All the included accessories can store away neatly on the vacuum’s caster feet or lid surface with integrated storage wells. The 20-foot power cord can be wrapped around the vacuum head. Wet spill? No Problem! Wet cleanup is easy with the drainage port at the bottom of the vacuum to empty out any liquids. Plus, the extra-large 16-gallon drum has enough capacity to accommodate large cleaning tasks. This vacuum also includes an integrated blowing port for added versatility. There is nothing more annoying than a hose that constantly pulls loose during use. When a hose detaches, suction is lost and work grinds to a halt. WORKSHOP hoses feature locking adapters that keep the hose securely connected to the Vac during use. The hose design also saves you time by allowing you to quickly attach and detach the hose when desired, instead of twisting and screwing the hose in place like competitive product – just click and go!
