PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION

The Gtech HyLite

We believe in full transparency, which is why we want to make it clear how we calculate any claims we make in

our copy. Where we can, we test all of our products in accordance with IEC guidelines using standard

IEC62885-2 – these are official international standards that determine how vacuum cleaner manufacturers can

talk about their products. That means that all vacuum cleaners have to pass certain tests (that follow the same

rules) in order for them to be sold in certain ways. Everyone has to follow these same rules so that customers can

make fair comparisons between products. If there are not currently international standards, we refer to the

British Standards and test guidelines.

Cleaning results and cleaning performance

When we talk about cleaning results, we’re referring to how well our products clean on hard floors, carpets and

in crevices according with IEC 62885-2; 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3. The results are calculated as the percentage of dirt we

lay out that the vacuum picks up. For example, if a vacuum were to pick up ¾ of the total dirt applied from a

controlled surface (one set up as per IEC standards), it would have a cleaning result of 75% on that surface. An

average cleaning result from the 3 tests is then taken, as shown below in comparison to other vacuum cleaners

on the market.

The Gtech HyLite has a high pick-up performance.

When we look at IEC test results, we divide the average cleaning percentage by its rated power consumption

(RPC). For example – the HyLite has an average cleaning result of 80.4% (across the 3 tests) and an RPC of 90W.

That gives it a cleaning performance score of 89. For reference, this is a comparative table of the power

consumption of a variety of vacuum cleaners on the market.

selling 2 years’ worth of bags in one package, we reduce the amount of deliveries we make and reduce our carbon footprint – and yours. Energy consumption Charging the HyLite's 14.4V Lithium-ion battery uses over 8 times less mains power than many corded vacuum cleaners need during use (per year) We talk about how much power the HyLite uses because it’s important to us.
