However, you need to try and match the machine to the things that you want to do and the estimate of work that has to be done. Here are ten tips that should get you reasoning in the precise way:
Choose a walk behind leaf blower when you have a lot of work to do, especially if you live in a wooded area and have a lot of land to clear, where the leaves build up to a depth.
Use a backpack blower when you have a fairly large area with quite a lot of leaves to clear. Backpack leaf blowers are powerful, but comfortable and easy to operate due to their design. You can use them for longer periods of time without getting as tired.
take a hand held blower for light to moderate leaf blowing where the yard is a cheap size and you don't have to use the machine for long periods of time. Hand held machines are quick and easy to use, but can get heavy after using them for a while.
Use a gas powered machine where you need a lot of blowing power and don't mind something that is relatively heavy. Gas blowers come is varied machine sizes to suit your power needs.
choose an electric machine for small yards and light leaf blowing. electric machines use a power cord and that can limit the distance that you can reach.
Use a battery blower for very light work and where you only need to work for about 20 minutes. Some come with two batteries which will growth the usage time. The batteries are rechargeable.
choose a blower with a vacuum highlight if you want to accumulate and bag the leaves rather than just blowing them out of the way. Some machines also have a mulching highlight that will shred the leaves and compress them to take up less space.
take a fast air speed if you want to break up clumps of wet leaves and move larger objects. The air speed is measured in Mph and should be taken at the end of the tube.
Look at machines that move a lot of air volume if you need to vacuum heavy, wet and large leaves You can check this out by finding at the measurements in cubic feet per minuscule or Cfm.
Use an electric blower if you need to have one that is relatively quiet. electric blowers are also light.
After you have decided on the type of machine that you want to buy you should take a look at as many reviews as you can so that you can get the most reliable and cost efficient solution.
