I'm using my small nozzle Heritage more and more and I'm using the universal style Hepa bags in it. But I'm having a problem with the fit of the bag onto the fill tube. It seems as if every other bag blows off the tube. Does the F style bag holder work better? Also I would like to wire my...

I'm in Wilmington and I don't mind a road trip! Greg

I've pulled my Heritage II out of storage but have no bags for it. Will the newer allergy friendly bags work? How about the newest style bags? Looking on the Kirby website makes me feel that the bag opening's are pretty much the same. Am I right? Thanks! Greg

Thanks for that info! He's been a real workhorse for me over the years and will be again in N.C.! Just put a Hepa bag in and the difference is staggering! Greg

My Princess I has the old cotton batting filter. How often should you change the filter and while I know the new foam one makes the machine a bit louder, will it also improve the suction? Greg

So is this brush roll a BB roll?

Help me refresh my memory! What's the right belt to use on them? In the Tip Top Parts catalog, the OEM knurled belt is O.K. What belt for the polisher? The Sanitronic is a single speed 4 amp machine. The D50 is rated at 5 amps for high. 4 amps for carpet speed? Thanks! Greg

Glad you like it! It hasn't seen daylight since I bought it over 6 years ago. Connie on! Greg

I've never been there. I've been down on my lucky lately and friends have offered me a job and an apartment in way of room & board for taking over their housekeeping and cooking. It's wwhat I did as a profession. I' a widower with no family or ties to keep me in Wa, so at 62 I'm having the...

Hans! I'm moving to Wilmington!! Getting out the the NW! Should be there mid July. Can't weight!

Henry/Jeff see's daylight. My Numatic Henry (labeled such for Jeff Campbell's Clean Team) is out in the light to be packed for his trip to N.C. He's made for the american Market and I've taken a picture of the ratings plate. This machine also has the illusive Power nozzle plug, which I've...

I'm moving from Washington to North Carolina. Which hoover should I take a convertible 1070 or my Concept one? Also my Kirby D50 or my Heritage II small nozzle?

But there's a back pack vacuum in the background. Look like a small Pro Team. Is it? Show it off!

One more question: What model is your Valet? G

Before you do anything try this! If your Valet has has an on-off switch on the unit, without plugging in hose, turn machine on and see if the machine winds up to almost a piercing scream. If it doesn't there's a problem. turn the machine back on and walk through your house listening for a...

Thanks! Another big reason is that the Riccar motors are in parallel. That means they are working side by side and exhausting separately. The VF motors are in series meaning that the first motor is working hard to do its thing, while the upper motor is trying to do its thing PLUS having to...

That's a tough one! Both are excellent machines. The Riccar is a Canadian made unit from a company I respect much. (I'm a retired central installer). Vacuflo has been around a long time also and is out of Ohio. Specs are equal, but the bagged units from Vacuflo are fairly new. For my $$...
