QuickDraw On-Board Attachments |
 |
 |
|
The QuickDraw On-Board attachments enable you to conveniently clean you
furniture and those hard-to-reach corners without slowing you pace. The
wire reinforced stretch hose extends to give an 11' attachment reach for
those high ceilings, etc.
If you need an extra long reach, Panasonic now offers an optional
Extension Stretch Hose to extend your
total reach to 17 feet.
The QuickDraw feature enables you
to quickly remove the hose and wand in one easy step. The small
attachments are always conveniently nearby on the side of the vacuum
cleaner as well.

Efficient 6 Stage, HEPA Type Filtration |
|
|
The filtration system with a HEPA Type
filter helps reduce recirculation of dust and allergens back into your home.
A high filtration two-ply Micron paper bag
and a secondary foam rubber filter clean the air before it enters the motor.
Following the motor the air is additionally cleaned by the final multi-layer
HEPA Type filter.
This multi-layer filtering system enhances the filtering ability while
extending the filter media's life span. Keep in mind that this Panasonic
upright does not have a completely sealed system so the stringent
HEPA specification may not be met
by it. For more information about HEPA filtration,
see our article on Filtration Efficiency - HEPA,
ULPA, etc.

Durable and Efficient Clean-Air Design |
|
|
|
A key feature which all Panasonic uprights incorporate is the
clean-air system design. The air flow
which picked up the dirt is cleaned by the filtering system before it passes
through the fan of the suction motor. This design eliminates fan breakage
problems which can be caused when objects are picked up by a
dirty-air system. Also, it typically
produces significantly more suction, especially when the optional hose and
attachments are used. For more about these two designs, see our article
on Fan or Impeller Types & Performance.
Strong suction and rigorous carpet
agitation powered by its 12.0
amp. motor combine in the Panasonic
MC-V5745 to deep-clean carpet as well as all other surfaces. Featuring
lifetime lubricated ball bearings and well balanced motor parts, it will
perform quietly for many years. The track record of Panasonic motors is
one of the best in the industry.
Like most uprights, the Panasonic MC-V5745 has a 1-fan motor.
Panasonic also manufacturers more powerful uprights in a special series
which have their more efficient 12 amp., 2-fan
Triforce motors that develop significantly more
suction. Panasonic is playing a game of "Hide and Seek"
with their policy of not selling the models in this special series to
dealers who promote them on the web. See our
Triforce Motor Page for a link to Panasonic's
website to learn more about the models in this special series.
The maximum amperage permitted for UL
Approval of an upright vacuum cleaner is 12.0 Amps. If you see a rating higher
than that, it probably is an Efficiency Rating.

Convenient Rug/Floor Switch |
|
|
|
The revolving brush roll can easily be stopped with a flip of the
Rug/Floor switch, enabling you to go directly from cleaning carpet to
cleaning vinyl or wood floors. This is important since a revolving brush
roll can whip the small grit and dirt behind the machine before the air
flow has a chance to pick it up. This switch also functions to stop the
brush roll during the time you use the attachments. This prevents bed
spreads, throw rugs, etc. from accidentally being caught in the vacuum
cleaner while your attention is on the furniture being cleaned.
|
Automatic Carpet Height Adjustment |
|
|
|
All Panasonic uprights have automatic carpet height adjustments. The
weight of the main housing is carried on the two rear wheels, allowing the
fairly light nozzle to float on the top of the carpet. This design makes
them very maneuverable around furniture as well as convenient when going
from one carpet to another. When the handle is moved to the vertical
position for using the attachments, the agitator is automatically raised
out of the carpet nap. This is helpful as well when you want to pause a
moment to move a piece of furniture without turning off the cleaner.
