Vacuum History

The first vacuum was built in the 1860’s but the first modern vacuum was not patented until 1901. Can anyone stop and think where they would be or how nasty everything would be without a vacuum? I can imagine a lot more work and a lot less time for fun or relaxing.
There are many different types of vacuums for different types of wood, carpet, rugs and tile. There are uprights, canister, drum, wet/dry, pneumatic, back-pack, hand held, robotic, cyclone, central, and constellation to name a few. Read more details about best carpet cleaner. Along with vacuums there are different bags and filters now as well.
Booth started the BVCC (British Vacuum Cleaner Company) in 1901 and refined his invention over the next several decades. Though his “Goblin” model lost out to competition from Hoover in the household vacuum market, his company successfully turned its focus to the industrial market, building ever-larger models for factories and warehouses. Booth’s company, now BVC, lives on today as a unit of pneumatic tube system maker Quirepace Ltd.
