Electrolux brings quiet power, ease to cleaning stairs & upholstery

Beam dealers can now offer their customers the same deep cleaning performance on stairs and upholstery that they get on carpet with the new @hand™ Powerbrush, a hand-held electric power brush designed for use with Beam Q™ and Solaire™ central vacuum system PowerTeams™.

“Central vacuum systems have long been superior to uprights for cleaning stairs and upholstery. The @hand Powerbrush adds even more advantage with more power and easier cleaning than ever before,” said Brian Campbell, product line manager for Electrolux Central Vacuum Systems, maker of Beam, Electrolux and Eureka central vacuum systems.

The @hand Powerbrush is a superior alternative to air powered turbines. It attaches either to the hose handle or to the removable wand from the Beam Q or Solaire Power Team. Its electric-powered brush loosens and captures dirt imbedded in fabric or carpet pile that air turbine cleaning tools can’t.

Because it operates so quietly, the @hand Powerbrush includes a blue LED on the top of the brush that keeps the user informed when the motor is running.

The ergonomically designed @hand weighs less than one pound and rotates up to 180 degrees to clean either horizontally or vertically, ideal for cleaning stair risers or the backrest of upholstered furniture. It also can be attached either to the end of the hose handle or to the base of the Q or Solaire’s QuickRelease™ telescopic wand, eliminating the need for bending or kneeling while cleaning.

Electrolux Central Vacuum Systems is a leading producer and marketer of built-in central vacuums. The company’s Beam, Electrolux and Eureka central vacuum systems are sold in 50 countries around the world. Electrolux Central Vacuum Systems is a division of Electrolux Home Care Products North America.
