A powerful EGO blower
They may not enjoy the same profile as lawnmowers or hedge strimmers, but the humble leaf blower is a garden godsend in its own right. Efficient, environmentally friendly, and effective, cordless leaf blowers are small but practical machines that can turn hours of work into minutes, whether it be in a domestic garden or a major industrial complex. And, as you will read, they have used beyond merely clearing leaves…
Handheld Leaf Blowers are Faster Than Rakes
Raking leaves and other garden debris hand can be quite a time-consuming chore—time that could be spent on more enjoyable activities and, in autumn/winter time, warmer ones too. Handheld leaf blowers contain powerful motors that blow away the leaves at high speed, effortlessly and efficiently. After one session you’ll wonder why you ever wasted all that time and energy with rakes and brushes.
Blowers can Blow More Than Just Leaves
While in common nomenclature we do indeed often refer to such equipment as ‘leaf blowers’, they can be effective in tidying up more than just leaves. For example, garden sheds can become quite dirty places, with an accumulation of dust and other debris over time. A leaf blower can be a quick solution to save you hours of manual work. Simply point the blower at your dusty tools and blow away the dust (and other dirt) in seconds. Likewise, cordless blowers can also be quite handy for sweeping footpaths and patios of grass cuttings, loose soil, and other dirt that may have gathered. Certainly easier than having to stoop down or sweep—not only is a blower far quicker, but your back and limbs will thank you for it.
Leaf Blowers Are Better for Your Back
It pays to be conscientious of the impact of manual labour on your back. When you use a rake or sweeping brush to clear leaves away, you end up putting gradual strain on your back and indeed limbs. This is where a handheld blower makes a world of difference. You simply point the blower at the leaves (or other debris) that you’re trying to clear and let the blower do the rest.
Clean Gutters in No Time with a Blower
Gutter cleaning is one of life’s necessities when it comes to property maintenance, whether it’s your own home or a business facility. As easy as it might sound, it can be quite a protracted and onerous task when you manually clean them. This often involves physically poking and prodding your gutters and then flushing them through with water. Not a particularly efficient method. However, with a cordless leaf blower, you can clear your gutters of leaves and other debris in seconds and without much manual effort.
Leaf Blowers Make Tidying Up Fun
Let’s be honest, a cold autumn afternoon sweeping stubborn leaves and clutter isn’t always the most enjoyable of outdoor experiences. However, when you choose to use a handheld leaf blower, not only does it make the task less onerous but it can actually be quite fun too. Under supervision, you may even be able to let the kids join in—in no time they’ll have gone from fighting over having to do garden chores to who gets to do garden chores.
