25 - Leaf Blowers - The Home Depot

Question 1

How can a leaf blower be used for things other than leaves?

Accepted Answer

Leaf blowers can clear grass clippings, dry your car after a wash, or even remove light snow from walkways. Choose a blower with adjustable speeds or nozzles to clear different debris effectively.

Question 2

I have a medium-sized yard with some stubborn leaves. What weight range should I consider for a balance of power and manageability?

Accepted Answer

A 5-10 lbs. leaf blower usually provides a good mix of power for moving heavier debris and manageability for extended use. You'll likely find various handheld and backpack-style options within this weight category.

Question 3

I've seen leaf blowers with translucent fuel tanks. What are their benefits?

Accepted Answer

A translucent fuel tank makes it easy to see your fuel level visually, preventing unexpected mid-job interruptions. This convenience saves you from running out of fuel unexpectedly and helps you plan your refueling needs for efficient yard work. It's a small feature with a big impact on workflow.

Question 4

I have a large property with lots of mature trees. What level of leaf blower max air volume should I consider?

Accepted Answer

Consider leaf blowers with higher max air volume in the 400 - 500 CFM range or 500 or greater CFM for larger properties with heavy leaf fall. These blowers provide the power necessary to move large piles of leaves quickly. They can also handle tougher debris and wet leaves more effectively, reducing yard work time.
