Not necessarily. Higher Pa is better if you have carpets or pets, but for small apartments with only hard floors, 4,000–6,000 Pa works fine. Anything above 20,000 Pa is overkill for most homes and wastes money and battery life.How much suction power do I need if I have pets?

If you have dogs or cats, aim for at least 8,000–10,000 Pa, or go higher (12,000+ Pa) if you have heavy shedders or thick carpets. Low suction struggles with pet hair, so this is where the Pa number actually makes a real difference in your cleaning results.What’s the difference between 8,000 Pa and 20,000 Pa
