THAT DEPENDS, JEFF, In a 10 gallon bucket a vacum blower will blow the water out of the jug in an hour. But with all that noise nowbody will be around long enough to see it catch fire. Dink dink. To save a buck and lose a week. A vacuum will last all week for $15 bucks for a junker. Only gonna do TEA for one week thats a good way to go. USE EAR PLUGS !! VB Uses 500 watts vs 50 watts.
After one season a suitable quiet long life blower will cost less. Actual air volume test is essential. Ratings mean nothing. Bob

Not sure about bleeding off the air...how can you get too much!
However, I am not sure a vacum blower will last long enough
