“The Dust Hog Pro is a simple, low-cost avenue to control dust,” added Eric Boender, Starnet vice president of business development. “The Starnet membership utilizes approximately three million bags of subfloor and ceramic-related materials annually and this simple, effective tool will protect the installation mechanic along with maintaining a cleaner jobsite.”

The Dust Hog® helps protect installers and HVAC systems from airborne particulates and in compliance with OSHA respirable silica dust safety regulations. Invented by a professional contractor, the field and independent laboratory tested tool is made of high-visibility, rugged, polypropylene plastic in the U.S. The Dust Hog utilizes proprietary Vortex Suction Technology™ to create a high-velocity, circular air current throughout the mixing container. Its patent-pending design has been specifically engineered with dual intake ports extending below the container rim, greatly enhancing vacuum suction performance.

The Dust Hog easily fits on and off 1-, 5-, 30- and 50-gallon pails and drums for mixing self-leveling underlayments, repair patches, mortar, joint compound and other powdered materials on commercial and residential jobsites.
