Small and mighty
The Pacvac Velo Backpack Vacuum Cleaner is a lightweight and compact professional cleaning solution designed for both professional cleaners and users seeking professional-quality results at home. Built for efficiency and comfort, the Velo delivers powerful cleaning performance while remaining easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces and large environments.
Weighing just 3.9kg, the Pacvac Velo is one of the lightest backpack vacuums on the market. Despite its compact size, the unit features a powerful 900W motor that provides strong suction for efficient cleaning across a variety of surfaces. Its 18m power cord allows operators to cover a cleaning area of up to 1158m², reducing the need to frequently change power outlets and improving productivity during commercial cleaning tasks.
The Velo comes standard with Pacvac’s Ecoharness, designed with thicker padding for improved comfort during extended cleaning sessions. Made from at least 50% recycled rPET plastic, the Ecoharness is produced using recycled water bottles, supporting Pacvac’s commitment to sustainable product design.
For improved indoor air quality, the Velo features an H13 HEPA Hypercone™ filter system with four stages of filtration. This advanced filtration system captures 99.95% of dust particles as small as 0.3 microns, helping maintain cleaner air in environments such as offices, schools, hotels, and healthcare facilities.
Additional features include a water-resistant on/off switch positioned at the base of the unit for durability and ease of use. The vacuum also comes equipped with the popular All Purpose Floor Tool (FLT001), suitable for a wide range of hard floors and low-pile carpets. For deeper carpet cleaning and effective pet hair removal, the Turbo Head Floor Tool (FLT007) can be paired with the Velo to agitate embedded dirt and debris on low to medium pile carpets.

“Bought this to use at work and now use at home too ! Its so light and powerful. The telescopic wand reaches to the ceiling fans, above doors & all those out of reach places. I no longer need to get the stool/ladder out of cupboard. Very convenient to have all tools at hand too. Love It !”

“I have had many vacuum cleaners in my life, hoping each one was going to be The One. To be the one that had great suction, not heavy, easy to manouvre. Of course, none of them turned out to be it. After deciding to never use my 20 year-old upright pull-along that weighs a ton and gets caught on every piece of furniture in the house, I chose the Velo from Pacvac. It fits all my criteria, and at last vacuuming the house won't be my least favorite chore.”

Hi Bev, Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We’re really happy to hear the Pacvac Velo has finally ticked all the boxes for you, great suction, lightweight design, and easy manoeuvrability are exactly what we aimed for when designing it. It’s especially rewarding to know it’s turned vacuuming from a dreaded chore into something far more manageable for you. We truly appreciate your support and are glad the Velo has made a real difference in your home. -Jina

“Not as good as l thought it'll be, maybe the best thing is how light it is, pipe is narrow, twice now it's got blocked. It's mostly plastic so lm worried it won't last as long as my old vac, pipe is metal but very thin.”

Hi Jeannie, Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. The Velo comes standard with a lightweight aluminium wand, and the curved hand piece on the hose is designed for comfortable handling. It can also be removed when needed, which can be helpful for clearing bulky blockages. We do offer alternative consumables as well, including a chrome wand option for those who prefer a different feel. For added peace of mind, Pacvac guarantees all machines and their components against faulty materials or workmanship for two years from the date of purchase, covering the body and motor. Regular maintenance is recommended to keep your vacuum performing at its best, as it can make a noticeable difference over time. You can also find helpful training and maintenance videos on Pacvac Academy and our YouTube channel. If you’d like, we’d be more than happy to share some maintenance tips or assist further with troubleshooting. Jina

“Been using pacvac for at least 8yrs. So when these smaller units came out I thought I'd jump.on it. More than enough for small to medium even slightly larger houses. Has more than enough grunt to handle whatever is on the floor. Size was the selling point for me and how versatile and easy it is to get in and out of spaces and easy to store Overall I'd highly recommend!”

“The Velo works great, not to large for ease of use in our home, with enough power to clean it well. Glad to have chosen a corded vacuum as the battery ones are expensive to buy and the batteries would need replacing making them quite an expensive proposition overall. The delivery was quick, but paper bags were missed in the order, this was quickly and generously corrected by the Great staff at Pacvac. Thank you very much!!! Best Regards Halley”
