Aerus of Houston, which was originally founded in 1924 as Electrolux, has become known for providing not only quality vacuums that last a lifetime, but a wider range of newer products such as air purifiers.

"We have the most powerful, quietest vacuums, plus we guarantee our flagship vacuum for 15 years. A real guarantee—as long as you haven't abused the vacuum—then the parts and labor are under warranty," Aerus of Houston Owner Seth Kovel said. "Every part of our vacuums are designated for longevity and performance."

For almost the past century, Aerus has demonstrated a history of innovation unmatched in the industry. For example, the Smithsonian Institute recognized the Model 30 Canister Vacuum as one of the Top 100 U.S. products ever created.

"It was beautiful, functional and better than anything else at the market at that time," Kovel said. "I've got a museum in the shop as well with older products on display."

Aerus Vacuums—which Kovel has dubbed the “Rolls-Royce” of vacuums—range in style from canisters, to upright, floor cleaners and everything in between.

Aerus vacuum cleaners can remove fine dirt and airborne contaminants, which are unable to be picked up by ordinary vacuum cleaners. A popular vacuum cleaner is the Lux Guardian Platinum which features the most powerful and quietest model of any vacuum featuring multiple layers of HEPA filtration.

Aerus customers recommend the company’s products to friends and family over 99.9% of the time. When shopping for Aerus products, customers will receive exemplary service and first-hand knowledge of their remarkable technological advancements over the past century. For example, Aerus' staff can create new, improved designs to fix failed products, such as water softeners and central vacuum systems. Aerus offers products that solve problems that people had with air purifiers in the past or vacuums that didn't last.

"The products that people buy at Target or Walmart are noisy, plastic, typically hungry for filters. I want people to know there is a better product out there that does a ton more," Kovel said.

Choosing the right vacuum with the right features can be a challenge without the expertise of the Aerus team.

"Yes, they cost more than the vacuum from the store, but they do a better job for a longer time with fewer issues over time," Kovel said. "Even if something does break, it's covered and we can fix it. Breaking the cycle of disposing and replacing—these are the products that last. They stand the test of time as they outperform the other brands."

Aerus of Houston has been a longtime business in the community and relocated to a new and improved location this year at 8220 Louetta Road, Ste. 164, Spring. In many cases, Aerus customers make their entire families lifelong customers, Kovel said.

"Grandma will have a vacuum and decide to buy one for her grandchildren and kids. Two generations later, all of the grandkids have one of our vacuums because grandma had one," Kovel said.

In addition to vacuums, the company has expanded to offer a range of special filtration products that enhance healthy, natural living and working environments. As a result of the pandemic, it became more important to have quality air purifiers in homes and workplaces to keep germs and airborne pollutants at bay. ActivePure technology developed by Aerus has been awarded the Space Foundation's prestigious Certified Space Technology seal.

The state fair, Cotton Bowl, Minute Maid Club House and a variety of schools, offices and hospitals use this technology, Kovel said.

"One hundred years ago, even 40 years ago, vacuums were seen as a luxury item. Then they became a necessity in a home" Kovel said. "Air purifiers are seen as a luxury item, and with everything that has happened in the world they have become a necessity. Our ActivePure technology is something that everybody should be using in their homes and offices."

ActivePure technology has been scientifically proven to reduce airborne SARS-CoV-2 novel coronavirus in the air. As opposed to many competing technologies, ActivePure Technology was tested on live SARS-CoV-2 virus. Within one minute, the technology reduced the airborne virus by over 99.9%.

“The air filters and purification systems that we use is great for people with allergies, asthma, immune deficiencies, sleeping disorders. These products are perfect for people who don’t like dust, mold and germs in their homes,” Kovel said “All of that is removed or reduced by adding our technology and our machines in their homes. The benefits are enormous and people’s homes can be making them sick in some cases.”

As a leading manufacturer of reliable products and friendly customer service, Aerus has built a reputation for excellence across the industry. To learn more about Aerus, visit their website at aerusofhouston.com or call 832-237-9880.
