Numatics - Commercials or Domestics?

[rootcyclone]

Hi everyone!

I've recently been looking at Numatic vacuums, both the domestic and industrial ranges. I'm pleased with both, although both ranges share some design similarities.

The domestic stuff seems pretty good, although I have heard things such as that the commercial vacs by Numatic are built a little bit better than domestic stuff.

Anyone know if domestic is best or commercial is best in Numatic vacuums?

Talk to me people!

There's not much difference except the commercial models have a bigger dust bag & bin so to cater for hotels etc. But many just buy Henry TBH.

There is barely any difference. The regular domestic Henry will easily give years of service in a commercial setting.

Actually, the so-called 'domestic' Henry is one of the best of the lot as it has the most durable tool kit of many Numatic models. The capacity of most models is the same as Henry, it's just that the bases are wider. And even on larger "Edward" sized cleaners, a good deal of people still use the smaller Henry bags as they are the easiest and cheapest to obtain.

I understand the mains lead is slightly longer on some of the commercial ranges, but I understand also that the motors on both commercial and domestic models is generally the same.
