Q

Can I get the instructions for a Centrobulb duster?
I just purchased and received a Centrobulb Duster and Delta Dust. There were no instructions included with the products, but I did find instructions on your site for Delta Dust. In these instruction it suggested

A

Yes, it is advised to place a marble or rock in the duster. This will prevent the dust from getting clumpy sometimes in humid or moist conditions and prevent the duster from clogging. A marble seems to work very well.

Q

Using the Centrobulb in an upright position
I need to dust the eaves around my house. Several reviews said the Centrobulb Duster did not work in an upright position. One even mentioned they did shake the powder before using. What are they doing wrong?

The Centrobulb duster actually has a brass tube with a filter on the end that runs inside the length of the bulb. When people are trying to use the the duster with the nozzle pointed straight up, they are blocking the filter with all of the dust and the air cannot circulate. The Centrobulb duster sh…

The Centrobulb duster actually has a brass tube with a filter on the end that runs inside the length of the bulb. When people are trying to use the the duster with the nozzle pointed straight up, they are blocking the filter with all of the dust and the air cannot circulate. The Centrobulb duster should be used either with the nozzle parallel to the ground or with the nozzle pointed down to the ground for the most consistent dust applications. If you really need to use it with the nozzle pointed up then you can add a marble or small bearing to the bulb (this will help break up clumps of dust and help avoid clogging), only fill the bulb about 1/4 full of dust and shake the duster each time you squeeze the bulb.

Q

Do they make a 6 or 12 inch extension for this Centrobulb duster?

A

This centrobulb duster that we sell comes with a 12" extension. You can also use the duster without the extension if you need to. It does not come with extensions of any other size.

Q

Can the Centrobulb Duster be used without the Curved Tip?
I have Carpenter Ants in the wall and I want to drill small holes through the drywall right into the studs around where the Ants are nesting. The curved tip would make it impossible to fit the applicator into the small holes I will be drilling into the wall, but if the curved tip can be disconnected from the the 12" extension, I will have no problems inserting the applicator through the small hole in the drywall and into the studs where the Ants are nesting. Thanks for your time.

A

Yes, you can use the centrobulb duster without the curved tip. However, the tip is smaller than the extension tube so it may not be the best fit. You may want to look at the B&G 1150 duster which comes with long, thin, bendable nozzles that may work better for your use.

Q

How do I use the Centrobulb? It keeps clogging?
The Centrobulb you recently shipped to me came with an note which states that it "operates most efficiently in the vertical position." You previously stated (in a Q&A) that it should *not* be used vertically. Do I have a newer type of bulb? In any event, I am having a great deal of trouble with clogging. I filled the bulb about 1/3 full - is that too much, too little? Shaking only helps temporarily. Any help would be greatly appreciated (I am using Drione dust in the duster).

Q

Can you store the dust in the duster or should you empty after each use?

A

The Centrobulb Duster and any other duster needs to be emptied and cleaned after each use. Leaving the dust in the resevior can cause decay and breakdown of the duster itself.

Q

My Centrobulb extension broke off the tip and I need to replace the screw-in tip.
The little threaded piece is in the tip and I cannot fasten the extension to it anymore. Do you sell the tip or do you know a place that does?

A

The manufacturer does not make the piece you are seeking available by itself. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Q

How do you stop the dust from coming out of the sides of the Centrolbulb Duster?
I've cleaned edges & washer but nothing seems to works

A

Dust should not be coming out of the sides of your Centrobulb duster. Either the top is not fully screwed on or you have a defective unit. If your duster continues to not function properly, please contact us by phone 1-866-581-7378.

Q

Can I replace the extension on the Centrobulb Duster?
I accidently broke the 12" brass extension from the Centrobulb duster. The brass broke off at the base of the funnel. My question is, is it easy to replace it with a new 12" brass extension - by removing the broken brass piece with pliers? Or is that broken brass piece "welded" into the funnel?

A

You can replace just the brass extension on the Centro Bulb duster, it just screws into the round funnel part on top.
