About Blowers, Sweepers & Vacuums

Blowers, sweepers, and vacuums, sometimes collectively referred to as “debris management” products, are a staple among golf course grounds crews, parks and recreation departments, commercial landscaping operations, lawn care professionals, and even residential property owners. Used to blow, sweep, and vacuum grass clippings, aeration cores, sand, thatch, leaves, twigs, trash, and other debris from cart paths, sidewalks, turf, driveways, and other surfaces, this equipment can provide significant labor savings.

Blower Characteristics

Blowers are generally wheeled, gas-powered machines. There are walk-behind, self-propelled, trailer-pulled, skid steer-mounted, and stand-on models featuring front and side discharges typically measuring 3 to 5 inches (7.6 to 12.7 centimeters) or more in diameter. Models may variously include such features as low-noise abilities, use of proprietary fan technologies, ergonomic and adjustable handles, caster wheel kits, wireless remote control, dynamically balanced and all-steel multi-blade impellers, and rotating nozzles.

Vacuum Facts

Light-duty vacuums are available in walk-behind and self-propelled varieties that feature bags similar to mowers. Larger, more powerful models are generally towable by a tractor, lawn mower, or other equipment and feature PTO support and sloped hoppers. Vacuuming everything from grass clippings to glass bottles on turf and hard surfaces, vacuums may include variable-height decks, multi-blade impellers, adjustable intake doors, larger-capacity hoppers, hydraulic controls, electric starters, filtration systems, and power tailgates.

Sweeper Traits

Sweepers are similarly available in push and towable gas-powered models that generally feature rotary nylon brush or rubber finger reels featuring adjustable-height sweeping decks. Besides low-noise operation, features may include oversized tires offering turf protection, wireless remote control ability, sweeping heads that extend several feet in width, hydraulic tailgates with high-dump ability, caster wheels, and support for wet or dry conditions. Notably, some manufacturers offer combination sweeper/vacuum models.
