    Power Head for a numatic NVQ 380 b-22

    I too have a Numatic Henry with a PN outlet...I'll post pics this weeks of how I converted a regular US plug that fits perfectly. It's still going strong 15 year later, though is a little loose. I earn my living cleaning house with this great vacuum! One of the best purchases I've ever made...

    Questions on cleaning tile/non-carpeted flooring.....

    Have you tried a BONA mop and solution? It really cuts through gunk. Also try spraying the floor with 409 and then use a wet Bona mop on it to wash and THEN rinse the floor. I clean a home with a woman who uses lots of hairspray and this cuts it well. Greg

    My new Kirby 512

    The "thing" on the Emptor is to open and add "Sweet Aire" to the pad in the back of the Emptor. It was a fragrance/musk scent that would then be spread through the room(s) through the exhausted air. A lot like Kirby's "Odorific" in later years. Greg

    Aerus/ Lux uprights then and now

    Is there much difference in say a Lux Epic 3500 upright then and the new one now? I know there's an after filter and probably a better brush roll but is it worth the difference? I've a chance to buy a 3500 for $30.00 . Greg
