RIDGID® NXT Wet/Dry Vac Line Adds New Air Mover for Quick Drying of Large Areas

Features include 3-speed induction motor, dual outlets and 25-foot power cord

Elyria, Ohio – May 12, 2020 – Quickly dry any space or surface with the new RIDGID® Air Mover, the latest innovation in the RIDGID wet/dry vac line designed for fast cleanup and jobsite convenience. The Air Mover is made for high volume air movement, making it ideal for industrial and commercial settings.

Featuring an integrated 3-speed heavy-duty induction motor providing 1,625 CFM and adjustable angle for efficient drying, the Air Mover has a 25-foot power cord for extended reach. Dual electrical outlets allow users to safely connect or ‘daisy chain’ multiple air movers together for additional air circulation or utilize the Air Mover electrical outlets to power additional tools.

The lightweight Air Mover weighs 29 pounds and includes integrated wheels and collapsible handle for easy mobility. Two units can also be vertically stacked for convenient transport and storage.

“Waiting for wet surfaces at a jobsite to dry can quickly add up to significant downtime. With the new RIDGID Air Mover, drying large areas is simplified,” said Sabrina Witkowski, RIDGID Global Marketing Manager. “With its multiple speeds, longer cord and dual outlets, it’s purpose-built with the pro in mind and a great addition to the RIDGID NXT wet/dry vac line.”

The industry’s most powerful wet/dry vac line, the RIDGID NXT line features 6, 12, 14 and 16 gallon models. Each NXT Vac comes with popular industry-leading features, like Scroll Noise Reduction® , a patented sound reduction technology that provides quiet operation by precisely controlling the flow of air through the vac. The QwikLock® Filter Fastening System allows for quick and easy filter installation and removal without tools or fasteners. The 12, 14 and 16 gallon NXT vacs are also OSHA/HEPA compliant when used as a system with RIDGID VF6500RT OSHA Table 1 and HEPA Compatible Filtration Kits.

The Air Mover and NXT wet/dry vacs come with the RIDGID Full Lifetime Warranty.
