Vacuum Cleaner Filters

The Trouble With Vacuum Cleaner Bags and Hoses

In a way, the bags cause the most trouble with vacuum cleaners. Or, if it is a bagless unit, the vacuum filters are the culprits. Yet it is impossible to use a vacuum cleaner without either of these two articles, so it is important to know that you can acquire bags and/or filters for many years, even if the manufacturer brings out replacement models.

• Primarily, the bag and the filters protect the electric motor and vacuum unit from being inundated with all the dust and hair that is sucked up. This is done by trapping the particles before it reaches the vacuum unit. However, as the particles are trapped, they also clog the filter and prevent airflow. This causes the electric motor to work harder to compensate for the reduced efficiency, thereby generating more heat, potentially leading to motor burnout.
• The bags and filters must be routinely replaced or cleaned. This is often neglected due to either not reading the manual or because you've given up after months of fruitless search for new vacuum cleaner filters. However, the risk for mechanical failures is substantial.
• Perhaps you've noticed that the tendency is always there to pull the vacuum cleaner along using its power cord and the nozzle hose and then give a firm tug if it gets stuck on something. This leads to twisted hoses and sheared cables, which must be replaced.
• Other minor parts that can terminate a vacuum cleaner includes the wheels, which always seem to break for absolutely no reason, right? The nozzles also wear out with time, especially if you vacuum many industrial-grade carpets in your building.
