Note: The more expensive Pure One S12.
Bagged models are better at trapping dust and maintaining airflow.But if you don’t want to use bags, try a sealed bagless system that keeps fine debris away from the motor.. Keeping on top of this simple maintenance will help prevent the motor from getting clogged with dust, leading to overheating.. 5.
The Filters are Blocked.Filters trap dirt, allergens, and mould molecules, leaving clean air flowing out of the vacuum.If they become blocked, the motor won’t get the cool air it needs.. A lot of filters are washable, but check the user manual if you’re not sure what type your vacuum uses.
For washable filters, rinse them regularly and leave them to air dry before replacing them..If your vacuum cleaner doesn’t use washable filters, you can still tap them off to remove loose debris.
Once clogged, however, you’ll need to replace them.
Again, your manual will explain how long to leave between replacements.. 6.Dirt and dust are pushed to the edge of the canister, before falling to the bottom as it passes outside of the airflow.. Air is pulled upwards in the canister.
At the top there are often a set of smaller cyclones that perform a similar function as the main one, but are designed to removed finer dust and dirt from the airflow (not pictured.).The air, which now contains much less dirt and other debris, is passed through a filter at the top of the canister.
The purpose of this filter is to remove dirt and dust that’s still caught in the vacuum’s airflow.. Air is sent back down an internal pipe to an outlet at the back of the vacuum cleaner.Many vacuums also have a secondary filter here to remove more dirt that’s escaped.. As you might have guessed, this is a simplified version of what’s happening inside a Dyson or other cyclonic vacuum cleaner.
