How to Identify and Fix Common Vacuum Problems ?
Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced Vacuum Technicians :
A Dyson DC04 vacuum cleaner has two filters, a pre-motor filter and a post-motor filter.
Look for a control knob on the front right hand side of your Dyson vacuum. If your machine has a knob it is a clutched model. If your machine does not have a knob it is a non-clutched model.
The DC04, released around 1998, had improved filters fitted as standard.
Which Dyson vacuum is the most powerful? In terms of sheer suction power, the Dyson Ball Animal 3 Extra is the most powerful option in Dyson`s current lineup, offering 290 AW, or air watts, of suction power. Among the brand`s cordless stick vacuums, the Dyson V15 Detect is the most powerful, with a rating of 230 AW.
Wash filters in cold water only
(don`t use detergent or wash in a dishwasher or washing machine). Rinsing under the water supply then gently squeezing the water out of the filter. Repeat until the water runs clear.
We recommend replacing your air purifier filter every 12 months. That`s because over time, filters can get clogged with pollutants, and even let unpleasant odors back into the room.
If there is a strong burning smell coming from the motor area of your Dyson DC14 or DC07 then it is most likely that your motor has burnt out.
`The only component that can be washed is the filter, which should be washed every three months to maintain the machine. `If the machine is dropped into water, please do not use and contact the Dyson Helpline, and if any owner has any concerns about their products, further information can be found online.
Over time, a vacuum`s hoses can start to crack and peel, and even if there are no obvious splits, there may be microcracks causing a loss of suction. Purchase a replacement hose and use the Dyson Ball Animal Hose Replacement Guide to replace the vacuum`s hose.
Engine loses power or won`t start
If the pressure is too high, it can cause a head gasket to be pushed out, can cause cylinder head hardware to break or in some cases, will cause detonation inside the engine.
Dyson was designed and patented by a British, had it made in Malaysia (Johor Bahru), – as it is cheaper to make here.
A Dyson vacuum cleaner has a lifespan of around 10 years. This is considerably longer than most other vacuums. So, if you`re looking for a high-quality vacuum cleaner that will last you for a long time, a Dyson could be a good choice. However, remember that Dyson vacuums are expensive.
Dyson invested £2.5 billion in research and development.
While you might feel that this is the reason their products are expensive, you`re highly mistaken. This investment was mainly to accommodate a centre for their 1,200 employees, 22 laboratories, prototyping space, and areas for collaborative work.
Now, Aldi is selling a home cleaning product that`s so affordable, fans can`t believe the price. It`s a cordless stick vacuum that`s like a Dyson vacuum alternative, but it`s less than $100. It`s the Huntington Home Cordless Cyclonic Stick Vacuum, and it`s an Aldi find just in time for spring cleaning season.
There`s an additional model category sold by Dyson labeled “Outsize.” This is the most expensive kind of Dyson vacuum, with a price tag of $800 or more. Dyson`s Outsize vacuums offer a bit more suction power and a larger dust bin.
The best mid-range vacuum for carpets is the Dyson Ball Animal 3. This bagless upright is less sturdily-built than the Miele Classic C1 and less easy to maintain, but it`s still very good when dealing with debris on carpets.
Easy step-by-step guide on how to clean your vacuum filter
We engineer vacuums that are simple to use and easy to look after. We suggest you clean your filter at least once a month to keep your machine running at maximum efficiency.
Extend its life. Dyson cordless vacuum filters are engineered to capture microscopic particles. Over time, these can build up in the filter and reduce performance. By washing it once a month, you can help maintain suction power.
Eventually, the filters will be clogged and the air flow going through the machine will be dramatically reduced. If no more air is going through the product, the air won`t be cleaned anymore.
It`s recommended that you change your filter every 12 months. If you run your air purifier frequently or are experiencing a lot of indoor air pollution, you may need to change the filter more often.
To remove the carbon filters: press the tabs on both sides of the filters. Dispose of the carbon filters in the bin. Dispose of used filter units in accordance with local regulations.
Ensure the purifier is unplugged. Press both buttons to lift of the loop amplifier. Remove the old filter and dispose of your old filter in your household waste bin. Lower the new filter into the housing and the complete unit onto the Main body.
Dyson offers a 2-year warranty on all cordless machines and parts, including the battery. If your machine is within its warranty period, we`ll replace the battery for you free of charge.

Kenmore Model 116 28014700 intuition vacuum cleaner. Latch for hose connection to cannister broke. I have the new part. How do I remove the hose from the broken part and replace it on the new part?
Thanks
Thanks
ANSWER : Hi
.
.To remove the broken part from the latch use a small screwdriver to release the tabs on the latch on the connector. When latches are released the latch assembly and the plate will slide out of the connector. When the plate is removed the adapter and hose will slide off the connector. Release the tabs that hold the hose to the adapter and put the hose on the new adapter.
You need to position the terminal plate inside the adapter before sliding the adapter and hose on the new connector. The latch and terminal plate have to slide under the small guides on the connector. Its reverse of removal. Please check the pictures in the below link, it may help—

I’m using Miele Medivac vacuum and I just sucked in a small plastic eye drop container by accident(I sometimes take off the brush part to **** in ‘small enough’ articles). And it is jammed in the part where the plastic hose connector bends. I think I can take it out if I can just disconnect the long necked plastic hose connector that connects the metal wand part and the hose part.
Is it designed to be disconnected or should I not even try it?
ANSWER : I love the fact that the filter bleeped out s.u.c.k ha ha!

Thanks Ray

I have a new bag in, checked the hoses for clogs have the motor cover off showing motor runs. Problem is vacuum has no suction in hose area, cover off where bag is and the air blows out of filter. hoses are clean no blockage.
ANSWER : Have you checked the filter? Many vacuums have a filter under or behind the bag to keep dust and dirt out of the motor. If this gets clogged the motor can’t get any suction. Also look for holes in the hose or in the small segment between hose and bag.
