Vacuums for Pet Hair Buying Guide
Love your dog or cat, but hate the pet hair that they leave all over your house? Not just any vacuum can fulfill your needs.
If you have a
long-haired pet you will want to steer clear from vacuums that use rollers since hair can easily become entangled in them. You
may want to look for a vacuum that
has a HEPA filter to help reduce dander and other irritants from your
carpet and uses regular bags so that dander doesn't fall right back
onto the floor. You’ll definitely want to
stick with bags if you plan on using any type of carpet powder before
you
vacuum.
Pet hair tends to stick to carpet and furniture with ridiculous strength, so the more suction power you have the better. Suction power is often measured in amps on a vacuum, so a higher amp rating means you'll have more suction power at your disposal. Long hoses from the pickup head to the collection bag leave a lot of room for pet hair to become clogged. Choose a vacuum with a short hose--or none at all (such as an upright)--to eliminate the chore of constantly cleaning your vacuum.
