Im a flooring contractor, looking for a dust collector to run in houses while ripping out tile, etc. Would this collect the airborne dust?

For that you want one like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008DPYSS4/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller= Typically hung from the ceiling but also has a handle and feet for portable use.

no it is not big enough or ment for that task. It is a direct conection colector only. You need a constant air scrubber.

No. This is made to attach to a dust port such as a table saw or router table.

I use it on a carpeted floor. It works fine for me. My caepet has very low pile.

Not really better than other routers unless you want to spend lots of time in the setup. I own, Craftsman, Porter Cable and Bosch. I never consider dust collection when buying a router. If I have to really collect the dust, I have an assistant hold a high CFM vacuum hose near the router. I generally work in a standalone garage/workshop and use an industrial vac to pick up the dust and chips. Then I use an air cannon to blow stuff out of the workshop.

I've been using this unit in my home for a while now and my experience is that it does a pretty good job removing dust. If I shake a blanket in the room where the unit is, it will kick onto high and then return to normal when the dust has dissipated.

It picks up a lot of dust but only minimally disperses it into the air. I was amazed of the dirt it picked up after sweeping a spot that I thought was clean.

I don't have hard wood floors but I do have ceramic tile floors and on the lowest setting it works fairly well, not as good as sweeping but it does pick up the dust balls and dirt. The corners are an issue so I will use the crevice tool. The only thing I might be concerned about using this on hard wood floors or vinyl tiles would be the brush might be too rough for it but I do not know for certain.

Yes, I have used mine on carpet when I have been cleaning my tile and just continued on to the carpet, maybe not as good as my hoover windtunnel but good enough for a quick job. To the people not using it to vaccum their tile and hardwoods I say you missing a better cleaning on your floors. I know a quick sweep is faster but I feel the floormate gets the floor much cleaner for the scrubbing process. And the best part no dust.

I have it working in a 475 Sq. Ft. room, and it removes all of the dust in the air. It also reduces the dust on surface areas, but I don't think any purifier will keep surface areas completely free of dust.

I use it mostly for my ceramic tile floors. However I have a low pile area rug in one bedroom and it works well as long as you use the "carpet setting" on the vaccum.

I haven't tried it on dust, but it might work - it has enough power, I think, to do so. It works really well on crumbs.

I agree with the other commenter...This is would not be an ideal choice for rugs/carpet. It does a great job picking up small debris on tile and hardwood flooring as well as food crumbs, etc. on upholstered furniture when used as a hand vac.

ABSOLUTELY...it collects all the dusty bits...even upside down on our ceiling fans!!!

It works pretty well for leaf blowing. It works better on concrete blowing the dust off and I use it in my shop to keep the floors clean, great for that. I use it for leaves also. it's an all around blower.

It does really well with fine dust like drywall. They demo it in one of their videos I believe. I think it comes down to how well your vacuum performs and how frequently you empty the dust bucket.

Yes, and it works very well on other hard surfaces like tile too. Instead of blowing the dirt and dust away as you come close to it, the suction pulls it right in. It saves SO much time when you're not chasing dirt around the floor!

No. The dust collector is inside the unit and you have to empty it. The extra dustCloth can be used on the bottom of the unit if you just want to dust your floors

As far as I know it does not have a dust collector. However it is a strong saw that will last. Make sure to where safety glasses when using this saw due to the chance of saw dust getting in your eyes. Buy a pair of glasses it will be worth it for future projects like using a weed eater or painting. Have a great day. Thanks for asking.
