Can water destroy a vacuum cleaner?

YES Machines designed to work with water have valves to prevent damage to the motor. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In short, Yes. A standard upright vacuum cleaner you'd find in most homes can not tolerate moisture. Shop Vacs on the other hand can suck up water but again the motor can NOT get wet. Shop Vacs employ a pretty simple device to ensure the motor never sucks water up. On the suction end of the vacuum there is a cage that is fully surrounding a float. The float is too heavy to be sucked up when there is nothing pushing it up. but as the water rises in the tank the float gets higher and higher to the suction port until it gets close enough for the port to grab it, effectively stopping the vacuum from sucking anything else. Same as covering the hose with your hand you will hear the motor pick up speed as there is no wind resistance on the fan anymore. Just dump the water out and keep right on a sucking.
