What To Know Before Buying Leaf Blowers

What To Know Before Buying Leaf Blowers

Love that well-manicured lawn, but the leaves constantly get in the way this fall season? No worries! There are many outdoor power equipment options, and we’ve got it all covered for you! Read along to learn everything you need to know BEFORE buying a new leaf blower.

WHAT IS CFM?

CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) means the volume of air coming out of the leaf blower. People talk about a wind speed, but it’s really CFM that matters.

TYPES OF LEAF BLOWERS:

  1. Hand-Held Leaf Blowers. A good quality hand-held leaf blower should be around 400 CFM.
  2. Backpack Leaf Blowers. Ideal for bigger properties. A good quality backpack blower will put out between 500-700 CFM.
  3. Walk-Behind Leaf Blowers. Perfect if you need more power and quicker results. Look for one with 1200-2800 CFM.
  4. Leaf Vacuums. Perfect solution for leaf removal. They come in push versions or self-propelled.
