What to consider when buying a leaf blower
A blower is a great help for cleaning up leaves, debris, grass and hedge clippings.
But what should you think about when buying a new leaf blower? Here are a few things to keep in mind before you buy one.
We have leaf blowers for all of your needs. If you know what you will use it for, we can help you pick the right one.
What Does CFM Mean?
CFM stands for cubic feet per minute. CFM indicates the power of the volume of air per minute, while MPH indicates the velocity of air expelled per hour. Combined, the two determine your hand-held blower’s effectiveness. The diameter of your nozzle (or the diameter of the output pipe), however, can impact this.
In a nutshell, the larger the CFM, the larger the area you can blast with your blower.
Any hand-held with a CFM of more than 200 will provide leaf blowing power that beats having to rake manually.
