Whether you’re sucking up spills or cleaning out your wood stove, there are so many uses for a wet-dry vac, both at home and at a year-round cottage. And once you’ve tried a battery-powered version, like the 60V AC/DC Wet/Dry Vacuum from Greenworks, you’ll be astonished that you ever got through the season without one. Here are five reasons why a battery-powered wet/dry vac is perfect for the cottage.
Going cordless makes cleanup easier
From your boathouse to your bunkie and everywhere in between, your vacuum needs to travel well beyond your cottage workshop. So why tack on the chore of finding an outlet and unspooling your extension cord every time there’s a mess? Corded vacs certainly have their place—which is why the 60V AC/DC Wet/Dry Vacuum from Greenworks also has an integrated backup cord—but for sheer maneuverability and convenience, there’s no easier way to clean up than with a powerful battery-powered shop vac. Plus, it has onboard storage for the included hose, crevice tool, and floor nozzle, so you’ll be ready for any task.
A blower feature for twice the tasks
One of the features that makes a wet/dry vac so versatile is the blower function, and the light weight and portability of the Greenworks 60V AC/DC Wet/Dry Vacuum makes that feature all the more useful. No matter where you are on your cottage property, you can clear leaves and debris, inflate mattresses and pool toys, and even dry off wet furniture and tools so they don’t rust. You can even dislodge leaves, pine needles, and dirt from gutters to keep your drainage systems healthy—an especially important task before winter!
Powerful suction for big messes
A wet/dry vac is great for cleaning everything from your car and boat seats to the gunk that collects in your patio-door flashing, but the bigger jobs are where it really shines. And with a long-lasting 60V lithium-ion battery and a powerful brushless motor, you’ll have all the suction you need to pump out pooled water in your basement, clear away sawdust in your workshop, and even unclog sinks and drains. And the 34-litre tank’s built-in drain makes it hassle-free to empty any liquids.
Perfect for both indoors and out
The Greenworks 60V AC/DC Wet/Dry Vacuum has plenty of features that make it perfect for outdoor uses, from its portability to its blower function. But its H13-grade HEPA filter also makes it a great choice for indoors, especially during the winter, when indoor air quality matters most. Whether you’re cleaning spills and flooding, sucking up pet hair, clearing out dryer lint, or cleaning vents and ducts, you’ll have all the power you need to maintain your cottage, home, and garage.
A complete battery platform
If you’ve already invested in other battery-powered cottage-maintenance tools, a wet/dry vac with optional battery operation is a no-brainer, because the same batteries that power it can power nearly everything your cottage workshop needs, no matter the season. But if you’re new to battery-powered tools, one of the best features is that a single battery (or, in the case of the Greenworks 60V AC/DC Wet/Dry Vacuum, a pair of them) can accomplish so much. From lawn care to fall cleanup, along with a host of other power tools, you’ll have everything you need to get the job done. And you’ll never have to start your Saturday by untangling an extension cord.
