Wet/dry utility vacuum and implement bag assembly

Abstract

A wet/dry utility vacuum has an implement bag secured thereto for conveniently and easily storing a plurality of vacuum implements therein and for facilitating the drainage of fluid from such implements. The wet/dry utility vacuum is provided with an implement bag supporting member. The implement bag is supported on the implement bag supporting member. The implement bag contains a plurality of vacuum implements therein for selective use with the wet/dry utility vacuum. The implement bag is preferably formed from porous or mesh material that allows fluid to drain from the vacuum implements contained therein and from within the implement bag to minimize the likelihood of fluid being retained within the vacuum implement or within the implement bag during storage.
