HCHW
Thursday, April 17, 2008

The HEPA filter in your vacuum traps the fine particles which trigger allergy and asthma symptoms. To keep it that way we would suggest to clean it once a month.

Vacuum cleaners may very, so please consult your owner's manual before disassembling.

  • Disassemble your vacuum and thoroughly wash all parts.
  • Dry your HEPA filter overnight to make sure it is completely dry before reassembling your vacuum.
