Hardwood floor attachment for Beam central vacuum

5 years ago

Does anyone have a recommendation for an attachment to vacuum my newly refinished hardwood floors. I have a Beam central vacuum but I need an attachment that doesn't have wheels or hard bristles to vacuum the hardwood floors. I use a dust mop but because my floors are 17 year old refinished red oak floors they have gaps that I feel the vacuum will clean better. Thanks!

We use the standard non-powered Beam floor brush on our hardwood floors. No wheels on it, only bristles.

I have a dust mop vacuum attachment on my central vac. It looks like a dust mop but you attach it to the vacuum's wand. It dusts but there's an opening at the bottom that sucks up crumbs and hair that escapes the mop head. The mop portion peels off like velcro and can be thrown in the wash. I haven't done that either - I just suck all the hair off after every few uses.

I think I got it online at Centralvacuumstores.com or something like that. You can probably find it on Amazon too.
