RIDGID 3 Gallon Wet Dry Vacuum

VAC3000

Looking for a versatile wet dry vac? This compact RIDGID 3-gallon vacuum delivers the performance of a vacuum 2 times its size with a 3.5 peak horsepower motor, but in a convenient easy-to-carry and store design. It may be small and lightweight, but its loaded with features.

Clean up is quick and easy with a unique built in suction powered dust pan. With the locking expanding hose and car nozzle stored in place on-board, turn the vac to create suction through the dust pan’s narrow opening.

10 feet of power cord and up to 7 feet of hose give you plenty of reach. The pleated paper filter and dust collection bag keep your air performance at its peak, make it easy to dispose of dry debris and keep a tidy drum. And to top it off, the car nozzle has an integrated LED built in that lights up dark areas where dirt likes to hide.

Peak Horsepower represents a level at or below the maximum horsepower output of an electric motor tested in a laboratory using a dynamometer. Gallons indicated reflect drum volume, not necessarily collection capacity. Actual capacity dependent upon type of debris collected, condition of filter, and other factors.

Integrated Dust-Pan Makes Clean-Up Simple

An integrated dust pan makes for even quicker clean-up. Just turn on the vac when hose and nozzle are stored on board and watch dirt disappear.

Lighted Car Nozzle Provides Visibility for Better Cleaning

A unique accessory in this model is a car nozzle with an integrated LED light. This feature allows you to clean more effectively by illuminating the area being cleaned. The car nozzle is perfect for cleaning auto upholstery and carpets as well as in between and under seats.

Qwik-Lock Filter Installs and Removes Easily

The QwikLock vac filter system simply snaps on and off with RIDGID’s patented design. No tools or small hardware are required for installing or removing, saving you time and frustration. No loose parts to misplace or lose.

Expanding Hose Stores Easily without Sacrificing Reach

This RIDGID vacuum includes our Tug-a-long Locking hose which expands from a compact 2-foot length to a convenient 7-foot reach. This expanding feature allows the hose to recoil and lock into the vac for storage without sacrificing valuable hose reach on the job. This hose also features a locking tab which allows the hose to be attached securely to the vacuum, preventing it from pulling loose during use. Also included is a bleeder valve, providing variable suction control. If you want to remove lightweight debris, such as saw dust, but not pick up heavier debris which might be mixed in the sawdust, such as bolts, the bleeder valve provides suction flexibility to pick up only what you want and leave what you don’t behind.
