How to Extend the Life of Your HEPA Absolute Air Filter
Your HEPA Absolute Air filter operates best when you use it under normal household cleaning conditions.
CAUTION: If you leave the HEPA filter cartridge in for abnormal domestic cleaning chores, such as for
vacuuming ash from a fireplace, drywall dust or sawdust from a carpentry work area, you will shorten the life
of the filter. To clean these areas use a dust pan and brush for the excess dirt, then use the vacuum for the
residue.
