Hello All,
I'm thinking about purchasing the Grizzly 1029Z dust collector, which comes with the 2.5 micron top bag. Any input on this dust collector, specifically the effectiveness of this bag? I would rather go with the 2hp as I would be wiring it 220v anyway, and the cost is not much different than a 1.5hp 110v/220v unit. What I am wondering is how well the 2.5 micron bag works, since the lower bag is still the 30 micron one? Anyone just replaced the lower bag with a plastic one similar to the Delta 50-760 and others? I don't want to buy it, and then turn around and start looking for better bags, etc. right away. I'm really hoping to get something for about that price that will work well right out of the box, and that I won't be thinking about replacing soon down the road.
By the way, my current DC is a shop vac and an open garage door, which leave a lot to be desired, so I'm pretty sure any DC will be a huge leap forward but still don't want to buy something inadequate.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Joe
