Question 1

What does a leaf blower's max air volume (CFM) mean for my yard work?

Accepted Answer

CFM, or cubic feet per minute, measures how much air a leaf blower moves, directly impacting its clearing power. Higher CFM blowers (like those in the 200-300 CFM or 300-400 CFM range) are best for quickly clearing larger areas and tackling heavy, wet leaves, while lower CFM options are suited for small yards and lighter debris.

Question 2

For a bigger yard that often has wet leaves and twigs, what max air speed should I look for in a leaf blower?

Accepted Answer

To tackle heavy, wet leaves and other stubborn debris in a larger yard, consider a leaf blower with a max air speed between 175-200 MPH. This higher air speed provides the extra force needed to move heavier materials quickly and clear large areas.

Question 3

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 4

What are some of the best-selling leaf blowers?

Accepted Answer

One of our best-selling leaf blowers is the 9 AMP 140 MPH 450 CFM Corded Electric Handheld Axial Leaf Blower.

Question 5

What kind of maintenance do leaf blowers typically require to ensure they last?

Accepted Answer

Proper leaf blower maintenance includes cleaning the air filter, checking for loose parts, and, for gas models, maintaining the correct fuel-to-oil mix. Regular maintenance will ensure your leaf blower operates efficiently and lasts longer, avoiding expensive repairs.
