SOOTDEVIL - INDUSTRIAL HEPA
CHIMNEY SWEEP VACUUMS

The SootDevil Industrial HEPA chimney sweep vacuum cleaner is the most powerful vacuum cleaning range in the UK market. The power to suction ratio is immense due to the powerful 1200w Ametek motors used and largest surface diameter free flowing H14 HEPA filter is utilised, thus creating a very powerful commercial vacuum cleaner due to powerful motors and a HEPA filter that does not restrict the air flow. The SootDevil HEPA chimney sweep vacuum cleaners are also very quiet compared to competitors vacuum cleaners due to it's unique design of noise suppression that is manufactured and fitted within the vacuum motor head.

With the SootDevil range we understand that every chimney sweep uses a vacuum differently, some chimney sweeps prefer wheels, some don't like using wheels and others prefer the vacuum to be on a trolley. Likewise not every chimney sweep wants a twin motor vacuum cleaner and others prefers just a single motor vacuum to operate.

So with this in mind we can give the chimney sweep a choice and not be stuck with only one design or limited choices, so within the SootDevil Chimney Sweep Vacuum range we can offer a single motor vacuum or the option of a twin motor vacuum, the choice of a 10 litre, 15 litre or 25 litre waste drum, then finally the option of no wheels, wheel or mounted on a heavy duty vacuum trolley, so the range can suit each individuals requirements.

2nd Generation

The SootDevil range of vacuums are now a 2nd Generation model from November 2023, they have been redesigned internally and externally.

Internally - The vacuum now runs cooler due to the flow of air over the motors being increased plus more air vents have been increased in size. The decibel level of the vacuum has been reduced, due to redesign and better sound insulation.

Externally - Added to the vacuum is a USB charging socket(1.0Amp), so it can be used to charge torches, phones or some small rechargeable inspection cameras. The illuminated motor switches will now only illuminate when the motor is actively turned on, rather than be illuminated permanently when plugged into the mains. There is a new cable restraint on the rear of the vacuum head, this will reduce the stress on the cable when being wound up.

Airflow

When contemplating a chimney sweep vacuum purchase there is too much emphasis on the number of motors and the wattage a chimney sweep vacuum produces. More importantly is airflow, this should be the first consideration as this determines the strength of the vacuum and the air it can pull through the machine which is measured in CFM(Cubic Feet per Minute) with a pre-filter, HEPA filter and a vacuum hose connected. The SootDevil range of chimney sweep vacuums, use robust Ametek motors that produce 108CFM of airflow with one motor and 175CFM with both motors turned on.

Carrying Weight

Weight can be an issue when carrying a chimney sweep vacuum on a long driveway, upstairs or when full of soot, so the heaviest SootDevil vacuum is 18kg and the lightest is 9.5kg.

Filtration

The SootDevil chimney sweep vacuum filtration use 3 stages of filtration, the first is the closed Hepa-Flo woven filter collection bag, then the pre-filter Dry Filter and finally the H14 rated HEPA filter which is rated at 99.995% efficient, which compared to many popular brands that only use a H13 HEPA filter and are 99.95% efficient. This doesn’t sound a big difference, but it does when it’s keeping the fine dust out of the motors and the customers lounge!
