Review: Expulsa el polvo que aspiró.
Review: This is an awesome little device. You snap it onto a 5 gallon bucket when you need it and it stores neatly away in the garage on a shelf when I don't. I use this for my fish tank sump. It's perfect to do a water change while cleaning the sump at the same time. The vacuum shuts off automatically when it's full. That is a real pluss so I don't make a mess. I'd say it shuts off when there is 4 gallons of water in the bucket. My sump tank is about 7 gallons so I can suck every last piece of water and muck out. It's so quick and continent. Way easier that with an aquarium pump and rags. I'm obsessed with cleaning my sump now. I'm sure my fish and coral are going too be so much more healthy. I'll keep up on tank maintenence more now!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What filter do you use for wet pickup? Every other wet/dry vac I've owned had a foam filter for wet pickup. I cannot find a foam filter to fit this.**
A: Hello Lee J. Gillio,

We’re sorry we don’t have a wet foam filter for this vac. For wet application, you may or may not use the supplied filter bag. If the filter bag was used for wet pickup, filter bag must be replaced after use. 

If you have any other questions, you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-325-1184 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time. 

Sincerely, 
Craftsman Wet/Dry Vac Customer Support

**Q: Is this a hepa rated filter?**
A: Hello Amazon Customer,

Thanks for your inquiry about our product. No, this wet/dry vac powerhead does not come with a HEPA-rated filter. It comes with a regular standard filter bag with the retainer band which is ideal for regular debris. Unfortunately, we don’t have a HEPA-rated filter for this vac. 

If you have further questions or concerns, you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-325-1184 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time and we’ll be glad to assist you. 

Sincerely, 
Craftsman Wet/Dry Vac Customer Support

**Q: Will this pick up pellets from like a grill?**
A: Hello Amazon Customer,

Thanks for your inquiry about our product. No, this vac cannot be used for pellets from a grill because of the type of filter that comes with the vac. It’s designed to be used for regular debris pickups. Having said that, if you need help in finding a vac suitable for your immediate needs, you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-325-1184 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time and we’ll be glad to assist you. 

Sincerely, 
Craftsman Wet/Dry Vac Customer Support

**Q: Is there a site to get accessories?  Specifically a filter for dust/cold ash.**
A: Hello CRAFTSMAN Customer Support,

Thank you for your question. We sell our accessories through Amazon and this particular vacuum takes the 1-1/4-inch attachments. Please note that this vacuum is not designed to pick-up fine dust such as cold ashes. Thus, we do not have any filter suitable for that type of job. For any other questions, please call our Customer Service with this information at 1-800-325-1184 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time and we’ll be glad to assist you further.  

Thanks, 
Craftsman Wet/Dry Vac Customer Support
