Vax Air cylinder - Performance comes in all sizes

July 22, 2011 - PRLog -- The lightweight Air multi-cyclonic cylinder from Vax: 30% more suction + 60% more dust capacity than the average multi cyclonic cylinder1

Designed in Britain by an iconic British company, the Air cylinder combines power, dust capacity and lightness to create a high performance vacuum cleaner that is easier to carry, easier to use and easier to store away.

It’s being launched by Vax as part of their ‘Performance is everything’ Air range campaign. The TV commercial features a performance of one of the most uncompromising art forms, ballet. Starring prima ballerina Claire Galtier, who trained at the Conservatoire National de Paris, it was shot on a Phantom HD at 500 frames a second. When viewed that’s twenty times slower than the human eye. Slow motion film reveals the strength and precision of her airborne moves, which look effortless in real time. Such effortless elegance only comes with hard work and lots of practice.

The Vax Air cylinder is the result of over 30 years practice in designing intelligent floorcare solutions for British homes. Twelve cyclones inside the Air cylinder spin rapidly to separate dust from the airflow so it collects in the container, not the filters. As the filters don’t get blocked with dust, you always have constant, powerful suction as you clean and there’s no frustrating drop off in performance2. For those that are sensitive to allergies, the Air cylinder has H12 HEPA filtration to remove pollen, dust mites and other allergens from the airflow, so you can breathe more easily. Weighing in at just 5.5kg, it has 314 air watts of suction power and a full sized 2.5 litre dust capacity.

There are three models in the new Air cylinder range with prices starting from RRP £199.99. For homes with pets, the Air Pet cylinder (RRP £229.99) has tools for picking up stubborn animal hairs and anti-bacterial HEPA filtration to help keep pet-related odours at bay. At the top of the range, the Air Total Home cylinder (RRP £249.99) has a long stretch hose to reach right to the top of your staircase and six different cleaning tools, so you always have just the right one for the job.
