Water Lift is a standard measurement of the strength of a vacuum's suction motor. If you take a vertical tube, place it in the bottom of a container of water, and attach the vacuum hose at the top; then measure how high the water in the tube rises above the water level in the container - this is water lift. The higher the number, the more powerful the vacuum. Most household vacuums do not exceed 70" of water lift.  All Metro vacuums are rated at 95"!
