​​
The iVAC Switch Box is an automated dust extraction switch that turns your shop
vacuum or most dust collectors less than 1 HP on and off automatically when your
power tool is in use. Just plug in your tool and vacuum, connect the vac hose, and
get to work — dust collection happens automatically.
​
For DIYers and home workshop users, even small projects can create surprising
amounts of dust. While most power tools include a built-in dust collection port,
many people don’t use it and end up cleaning everything after the job is done. The
result? Dust drifts through your workspace and home, lingers in the air, and turns
simple cleanup into a bigger chore. The iVAC Switch Box helps you capture dust at
the source, keeping your space cleaner from the start.​​
​
The iVAC Switch Box is designed specifically for home and big shop use, making automated dust collection accessible for users of all skill levels. Whether you’re tackling weekend projects or regular shop work, it helps keep your space cleaner, safer, and easier to manage — without adding complexity.
Key Benefits
-
Cleaner workspace: Dust and debris are collected immediately, not after the mess spreads
-
Healthier air: Reduces airborne dust throughout your shop and home
-
Safer operation: Helps clear debris that could otherwise be thrown from the tool
-
Automatic operation: No switches to remember — it works when your tool does
-
Easier cleanup: Less sweeping, less vacuuming, less frustration, cleaner air
​
How it Works
When you turn on your power tool, the iVAC Switch Box automatically starts your shop vacuum or dust collector before cutting or sanding begins. While the tool is running, dust and debris are continuously collected.
​
After you turn the tool off, the vacuum continues running for approximately six seconds, helping clear any remaining debris from the tool and hose before shutting down.
​
You don’t need to change how you work — the system runs quietly in the background.
