If your cleaning staff or contract cleaner are still using tub vacs then now is the time to ask them why.
A recent study tested how long it took different types of vacuums to clean the same sized area – revealing that backpack vacuums are almost three times more productive than canister and upright vacuums.*
We have worked out some savings based on this eg.:
- The average UK primary school is 6000 sq/m
- UK minimum wage April 2018 is £7.83 per hour
- Most schools are vacuumed every week night (lets pretend this is a thorough vacuum rather than a spot vacuum)
- There are 12 weeks of school holidays per year
Yearly cost to vacuum using a tub vac = £40K
Yearly cost to vacuum using a Pacvac = £14K
Yearly Saving = £27K
Do you still think a Pacvac is too expensive?
