Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dustless Technologies MU405 Cougar Ash Vacuum, Black

Customer Review: A great investment!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

When I bought my pellet stove, I noticed another version of this vacuum advertised on the back of a bag of pellets. At the time I looked up the price of the ash vac and thought it was too expensive and bought a much cheaper "Shop vac" for cleaning my stove. BOY WHAT A MISTAKE THAT WAS!!! After a year of having ash and soot spread all over my house, having to clean out the vacuum EVERY time I used it and finally trying to place all kinds of Duck tape over the silly thing in order to keep it from leaking ash all over, I decided to invest in the "Cougar Ash Vac." I was a little put off by some of the negative feedback this item received from people stating it wasn't worth the money, was hard to use and kept getting clogged up when they used it. I am happy to say, this was NOT the case for me. This attractive vacuum worked perfectly for me, sucked up every bit of ash from inside my stove and did not clog a bit. I no longer have black soot billowing out all over my house and my stove stays clean and ash free. I am not sure why others are having problems with their vacuums clogging up unless they are trying to use this vacuum to clean up debris left from stoves that burn large logs and lumps of coal. In which case, the vacuum may not be able to suck up larger pieces of unburned wood or coal. That would make sense, considering the selling feature of this product is that it is supposed to be good for cleaning fine pieces of ash that go through a regular shop vac. In short, this is a well built and hard working vacuum and a great investment. I am glad I bought it and wish I would have gotten one a long time ago.

Flame Resistant for Safety
The Cougar is designed with safety in mind. It features a steel nozzle with a five-foot flame-resistant hose and a fireproof three-gallon steel chamber. The patented filter system uses fire-resistant fabric rated up to 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, and the remaining parts are all made out of thermo-plastics to withstand high temperatures.

NOTE: Never use a household, or shop vacuum to clean a fireplace, because warm embers can be hidden under ash, which acts like an insulator and can keep embers hot for days after you think the fire is out. The combination of swirling air and debris inside a flammable paper bag filter is an extremely dangerous fire hazard.

Filter System Captures the Smallest Airborne Ash Particles
The Cougar features a double filter system that ensures no ash escapes the vacuum. This system leaves your air ash free and makes the process of cleaning your fireplace simple, clean, and healthy.

Each of the system's filters is designed to trap the finest ash, and the second filter even captures sub-micron particles. This double-filter action effectively traps ash, so your air stays clear.

Clean Filters Without Removing the Lid
Your Cougar's filters can be cleaned without removing them from the vacuum, eliminating any potential mess. For a quick dust-off, simply remove the brass cap from the lid and jiggle the agitator rod from side to side to shake the filters and make ash particles fall off.

After you have vacuumed up 60 to 80 gallons of ash, your Cougar will be ready for a thorough cleaning. Just detach and vacuum the secondary and primary filters to clean them.

Three-Gallon Canister Requires No Bags
The Cougar Ash Vacuum features a cold-rolled steel canister that will hold up to three gallons of ash. This fireproof canister safely contains your ashes without bags, so you'll never need to worry about expensive and annoying replacements. Just remove the canister's lid when it's time to empty your ashes.

Removes Ash Quickly and Quietly
Thanks to its powerful, six-amp electric motor, the Cougar can suck up ash quickly and easily. What's more, specially designed motor housing makes operation as quiet as can be. In fact, the Cougar is the cadillac of ash vacuums, operating with 60% less noise than the Dustless Technologies Cheetah II.

To help speed up ash removal, the Cougar's crimped steel nozzle is designed to quickly pick up ash and leave larger debris behind--for burning at a later time. To use, just place the vacuum nozzle directly on the hearth and swipe it in a circular motion. Ash will flow smoothly through the hose without clogging.

Warranty
The Dustless Technologies MU405 Cougar Ash Vacuum is backed by a one-year limited warranty for home use.
