Ya, saw that ad last week and laughed. That's a commercial pan on the model 31, for DRY pickup. To my knowledge, there is no wet pick-up kit for a Filter Queen. Anyone else know? John |

Actually Filter Queen did put out a wet pickup attachment in the 1980's. It was kind of a clumsy pie shaped affair a little over 4' long that fit on the end of the hose and had its own wet pickup nozzle. If memory serves me it was white with blue trim. The vacuum itself was never wet pick up though. Doug |

I just recieved some information from a very knowledgable friend on this subject. First off - the attachment which I mentioned earlier was called the Aqua Queen. More importantly, Filter Queen actually DID make a wet/dry machine. It was the model 530 and was put out during the mid 1950’s. It came with a rubber hose, and a float that went into a 5 gallon pan. So I stand corrected. Thanks for the help T. Doug |
