[vacuumssuck213]

so I have wanted to know if anyone knows any where to buy dirt meters for g series/ classic heritage etc. I've seen a few non Kirby dealer associated people using these dirt meters and have been looking for a demo tool like this for years any sugestions?

Are the dirt meters for Electrolux canisters (all models)?

 

[Gr8DaneDad]

Kevin,


 


Electrolux never did anything quite so fancy as a dirt meter.  There are cloth demo bags for every model to dump the dirt on the floor/couch/carpet/mattress. The better ones have a clear plastic top so you can see the cyclonic action whipping the dirt around in the bag before dumping.

The dirt

meter for Electrolux was first on the Model XXX to the Renny. Renny on needed to be changed and was put in a wand. The new Platinum has one made for it.The one illustrated is for Renny on thru Guardian series except Guardian Ultra.

Wow that is cool. Even my former boss who has been selling Electrolux/Aerus since 1965 was unaware of a dirt meter. Or maybe he just 'forgot'.

There was also a plastic 'basket' to be used with test cloth that dropped into clear plate of cloth bag with a clear plastic circle that fit where hose plugs in when Discovery II was introduced.Mostly ignored by salesmen until forgotten.
