So here'e my issue. I have a 3 HP horsepower dust collection system with 6" lines running to all my main machinery so Im generally covered regarding dust control, plus I used a Rigid 5.5 HP shop vac attached to a hose reel for general cleanup plus I would attach the hose to my power tools. BUT I hated the noise it created as it was very loud and I came across a fairly new lightly used Festool 48 dust extractor on Kijjiji (buy and sell adds) for $350. Seemed like a steal so I bought it. I use the Festool for all my sanding and power tool use but not for general cleanup. So I still use the Rigid for that. I also attach the rigid to my sawstop guard dust extractor but again the noise is driving me nuts. So I thought I was in the market for a new general use quiet shop vac and came across a PF55 Powr Flite heavy duty shop vac with insulated motor at 75db. (quiet) for $250. Am I overthinking this? Should I just scrap the Rigid and start using the Festool for both tool dust extraction plus general shop cleanup? Should I but the Powr flite commercial shop vac?
Your opinion appreciated.
