Home Leaf Blowers

A leaf blower is a mechanical gardening tool that uses forced air directed through a nozzle to move common debris such as leaves. Leaf blowers are generally designed as portable units that come in handheld or backpack versions. Some leaf blowers are capable of sucking in leaves and small bits of debris then depositing them into a bag.

The leaf blower was originally introduced in the 1950`s as a feature on an agricultural chemical sprayer. Manufactures quickly discovered that consumers were frequently using the leaf blower feature without the chemical sprayer feature. Manufactures responded to this by developing devices specifically designed for blowing leaves only. Nowadays, landscaping services will have leaf blowers as a standard addition to their equipment.

The most common power sources for leaf blowers are an electric motor or a two-stroke engine. In recent years a four-stroke engine has been introduced as a response to air pollution concerns. The convenience and effectiveness of using leaf blowers has made them a popular tool among homeowners and professional landscapers as well. Find Cheap Mowers here.
