Abstract: A vacuum cleaner system having an intake nozzle integrally formed with a concave lower portion of a main vacuum canister of a vacuum cleaner system. The intake nozzle protrudes downwardly and communicates with an opening in a convex upper surface of a liquid pan removably attached to the concave lower portion of the main vacuum canister. Attaching the intake nozzle with the concave lower portion of the main vacuum canister allows the interior area of the liquid pan to be more easily cleaned. In an alternative preferred embodiment, an intake member is included which is secured to the concave lower portion of the main vacuum canister. The intake member includes a downwardly protruding tubular member which protrudes outwardly of the lower surface of the main vacuum canister. The tubular member has a first opening which forms an intake port on the side surface of the main vacuum canister and a second opening forming an exhaust port at a lowermost end portion thereof.
