When is the best time to do the maintenance on my central vacuum cleaner’s filter?
For a bagless unit, we recommend regular maintenance of the filtration system, in order to ensure your central vacuum’s maximum performance. We also suggest that you clean the anti-clogging filter (thin fabric) every time you empty the dust receptacle (every season). You may either shake it or wash it. As for the CyclofiltreTM, it should be cleaned after four anti-clogging filter cleanings, or approximately once a year. These two filters are machine washable, in cold water without bleach, and must be dried at low temperature. Before replacing the filters, inspect them for tears or punctures because damaged filters must not be reinstalled. Use only genuine Cyclo Vac replacement filters. Failure to do so could void the warranty on your vacuum unit.
