No need to clean the interior of the shop vac. I don't do anything special with my shop vac besides simple garage clean up after a wood working project. These bags are priceless in keeping my shop vac clean and reducing the dust that it spits back in the air. I love these bags and will never run my shop vac without one. The trap the tiniest particles, and when it's time to empty out the container, it's as simple as pulling one of these bags out and putting in a new one.
For the price, I think they are well worth it. I understand what some may think, however, after cleaning up many different types of nail, glass, metal scraps and shards, and really filling this in my 18 gallon Shop Vac, this thing did not rip. Okay, how can I say it's a great bag. That was impressive. I can't think of much more to say about a bag, except it fits well. Dust stays in, where it belongs.
Great if it is dry only. Creates a mess. Slightest bit of moisture makes the bag break.
The bottom line is that these "high efficiency" bags by Shop Vac are simply outstanding. foot house that is being built), and wanted something that would do the job without clogging the vacuum filter and/or motor or spewing dust back into the air. There was also NO dust inside the canister - the inside of the canister didn't have a single spec of dust after 3 solid hours of vacuuming. One bag was enough to take care of the entire 2400 sq.
I now use these bags for everything, even general cleaning of dry debris, as the bags keep the Shop Vac filters in superb shape and are very easy to remove and toss in the trash once full. The bags are expensive, but WORTH it. house (covered in drywall dust), without stressing the Shop Vac motor. I purchased a new Contractor-grade 16-gallon Shop Vac for a big drywall dust clean-up job (to clean up my new 2400 sq. The high efficiency Shop Vac bag seemed like a great option, especially because drywall dust clings to everything, and figured that I would go through multiple HEPA filters (if I opted not to use a collection bag) to clean up an entire house full of drywall dust. After sucking over 40 lbs of drywall dust into this bag, I hardly noticed any loss of suction from the Shop Vac, and absolutely NO drywall dust made it onto the HEPA filter. You can fill these bags to the brim without your Shop Vac losing suction power, and won't need to worry about changing your filter out every few weeks, even from messy jobs.
If you use your Shop Vac sporadically for general clean up of dry debris (sawdust, dirt, drywall dust, etc)., 1 bag should last you several months, and you'll save $$ in not having to replace your cartridge filters. I have destroyed vacuums in the past by sucking up drywall dust, and didn't want to see a brand new $140 Shop Vac bite the dust, no pun intended. These bags stop the drywall dust in its tracks, I would estimate that 97-99% of the dust is filtered by the bag itself. 1 cartridge HEPA filter costs as much as 2 bags. ft.
add a HEPA filter (the red one) and say goodbye to even the finest dust. Very, very impressive. I used one of these while finishing the inside of my garage with a Porter Cable drywall sanding machine (also unusually good). Didn't even have to move the cars out to sand the new walls.
