How often should the filters in a Shark* vacuum be replaced?

It is recommended to replace your foam and felt filters in a Shark* vacuum every 3 months and the HEPA filter every 6 months. Clean filters will ensure the optimal performance of your Shark* vacuum.

How to replace foam/felt filters in a Shark* vacuum?

The foam/felt filters are located directly below the dust cup. Remove the dust cup, pull out the dirty filters, and then replace with your brand new GreenVacShop filters!

Are the filters washable?

Yes, the GreenVacShop filters are washable and can be used multiple times. Please rinse in lukewarm water and allow to air dry completely before re-using them. Many people prefer to have spare filters at home so that they don't have to wait around until the washed ones are being dried.

How to properly wash your filters?

First, rinse the filters thoroughly in lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Next, squeeze out excess water and let air-fry for at least 24 hours before inserting back into the vacuum. If you use them while damp, it is possible to have mildew growing in the filter chamber, making permanent damages to the vacuum.
