Hepa bags for Tristar

[mylesrom]

Has anyone tried these from webrestaurant store. Are they the V.A.C. brand. They are cheap enough, but ship is 30 usd to Canada which if I order enough would be worth it. Just would like to know if anyone has tried them.

Im planning on buying some Less tried them in his Compact C8 C9 work well .Il oder some when i get some money he had a good experience whit em .

I have

I got a 9 pack or 12 pack.
They work good. I noticed they get fine dust most vacuum bags miss. They are really good if you have allergies buy them if not buy envirocare much cheaper.

Enviro care will work good but over time fine dust leaks out .ONly after a month or so Hepa bag keep it clean and help whit allergies

 

[lesinutah]

Hmm

When I vacuum my bag is full once or twice a week. I did just empty HEPA and reused once. I don't have bags longer than 2 weeks.
I only say because HEPA are alot more per bag over envirocare. I have a lifetime supply of envirocare and that's not an exaggeration.

You haven't got HEPA yet. How do you know hepa doesn't let dust through.
I'm playing.
I can only say at minimum use envirocare. HEPA if you can afford are good. Just dont use generic bags only envirocare which is oem and recommend by TriStar/interstate. I believe it's the one they recommend but don't quite me.

From what i heard Hepa bag dont let dust throught all that much Les.,
From other vacuum experience fleecee or hepa bag usually dont leak like paper bag so theres that .When i get the cash il upgrade to hepa bag ty .

Are they V.A.C. brand?

Yup they are.I've noticed the in address they have VAC36 that's one of Vacuum American Clean's SKUs
For example:
Vac30 is the Proteam new style 6 quart backpack
Vac14 is Eureka/Sanitaire F+G
Vac36 are the tristar bags.
I'm quite surprised at how many bag types they do produce.

Anyways I have used them in both my DXL and Patriot though not extensively, but I tend to think that hepa bags are always better. The performance boost is pretty small but I think they will retain flow better over time, and keep the cloth bags cleaner.

Unfortunately at this time there are few places to get them not even Essco (vacuum supplier) has them despite having some of VACs other products. I bought mine on Amazon but they're not in stock currently leaving Webstarauntstore with their crazy shipping rates or Evacwarehouse who charges $13.15 per pack.

I sell them in my store. In fact those are the only types of bags I sell.

 

[blackheart]

OH!

Where do you buy those from Tom? Neither Essco nor Steel City seems to have them.

 

[lesinutah]

Hey

Amazon is where I got mine.

I order them, along with ALL their bag types, from Nationwide in New York. They are the manufacturers of Perfect brand cleaners, power nozzles, etc. Greg Palmer turned me on to them. He brought a number of Perfect machines to my house last year when we had the Vacuum Collectors Convention. I'm very pleased with the performance of their brand of bags, especially for the Kirby, Compact, and Electrolux cleaners. They also make the Perfect upright that is a copy of the Electrolux 4000 upright with on-board tools. Very high quality, like the original but with performance improvements. The wholesale price is crazy low for such high quality. I've sold 4 of them to the college in town in just the past 2 months.

So you know why some fitler cap for tristar or compact dont have the iec logo i ordered a new one on ebay dose not have a iec marking on it i was wondering ty .

 

[dysonman1]

It does not have the logo because it is a replacement part not manufactured by interstate engineering. Replacement parts made by another manufacturer are called “Bojack”. They are perfectly fine to use.

 

[compactc9guy]

Thanks you seem to know alot of info about Compact.
