Using the Festool Dust Extraction System
How does Festool’s system work?
All of Festool’s products can hook up to its dust extraction system, which has been independently tested and certified to be a FULL HEPA dust extractor. This certification means that you comply with EPA RRP guidelines, which govern the practices of renovation that may disturb surfaces containing lead-based paint. Festool is the perfect option for working in schools, child care facilities, or any old homes that may have used lead paint. Festool’s system attaches straight to any of your tools and works as you work. Instead of suspending dust particles, all dust is captured within the system, making for a spotless work environment. The vacuum bags also lock close to keep dust and debris from escaping when disposing of the dust.
What options are available?
If you are a contractor that is always on the road, a small unit may be the best option. The CT Mini and CT Midi are compact and make it easier to transport from job to job. If you want to use it in a workshop or somewhere that will not move around as much. A bigger unit might be more suitable if you often have more extensive jobs. All units come with HEPA filters, and Cardinal Home Center stocks these filters for you to change out as needed.
