Royal launches uprights for residential & commercial customers

Royal is launching two upright vacuums designed to be lightweight and powerful. The Royal RY6400 Lightweight Upright is ideal for residential customers looking for an energy efficient, lightweight upright. The RY6400 weighs less than nine and a half pounds. The low profile, 12-inch nozzle gets under furniture and maneuvers easily. With the fingertip on/off controls, aluminum handle with comfort grip, and automatic height adjustment, there is no searching for controls.

The durable, soft Gore-Tex® outer bag houses HEPA filtration which traps 100 percent of pollen and ragweed and 99.9 percent of dust and other allergens, making this a must for anyone concerned about the quality of the air in their home or business. The edge cleaning bristles ensure that carpet is groomed and clean from baseboard to baseboard in every room. The specially devised urethane wheels are non-marring so users can go from carpet to hardwood or tile with ease.

The RY6500 Commercial Lightweight Upright has all of those features with several other added benefits. The lightweight design ensures that this upright won’t overload housecleaning carts. It also means that with less bulk, the upright is easier to push, maneuver and carry, perfect for high traffic areas with frequent vacuuming needs.

The RY6500 also has a 40-foot quick change cord for easier maintenance and versatility. With a cart hook for janitorial carts, and all the other features that make Royal a leading commercial supplier, the RY6500 is sure to meet commercial needs in schools, restaurants, doctor’s offices or hotels.

The efficient motor in the RY6400 and RY6500 is 20 percent quieter than and twice as powerful as similar units on the market. Using less energy while providing twice the cleaning power also eliminates weight.

“We recognize the importance of providing items that are high in quality and value for our customers -- whether residential or commercial,” said Don Snyder, vice president of sales administration. “This new line of lightweight uprights continues Royal’s legacy in providing durable, long-lasting uprights.”

Visit Royal’s booth #413 at the VDTA/SDTA Show in Las Vegas, NV, next month. One of their dedicated sales people would love to show you firsthand the great features on their new uprights and tell you about some product specials that will only be featured for the length of the show.
