I live in an area with very fine dust, and It clogs the filter quite fast. Is there replacementparts or other kind of filter?

I believe you can get filter replacements, but to be sure, go to Dirt Devil web site (dirtdevil.com) I believe, and put in the mdel # from the Amazon ad -- they will have a "parts" section. Also, the filters are very easy to clean -- just tap them over a trash can and they come very clean -- you could further wipe them with a paper towel to get fine residue. Hope this helps

The manual doesn't show different type of filters, just the supplied one. Replacement filters are available. Cleaning the filter is easy. I don't have that type of dust.

They sell the replacement "cone" type filters on Amazon. By the way, I LOVE this thing. Works great on carpet too. I have a lot of dust too. I just take the filter out once in a while and brush it out by hand so I haven't even had to replace a filter. I also said goodbye to my other big bulky vacuums.

There are replacement filters available. I purchased through Amazon. The filter may also be rinsed , you need to allow it to dry before use. I love this vacuum, my only complaint is that the dirt cup is small, but overall I love this vacuum.

This unit is just for light cleaning and you are probably going to have to upgrade to something much more powerful, and that offers a much more advanced filter system. This unit is just a step or two above being a floor sweeper.

It sound like the filter is doing its job, but the job is too big for the Dirt Devil. You need a large capacity vac, or vacuum more often.

We found our replacement filters sold at a retail store where we live. I am not sure if they are sold everywhere but they are sold out there!

The corrugated filter shouldn't need to be replaced for a longggggggg time, if ever. I personally blow it off w/ the shop blower that hubby has. If you don't have this, shake it off outside, then use a reg. hose vacuum to remove the smaller dust.

There are two filters on it. You can get both from Amazon. The more temporary one is a "cut to size" and you can get two replacements if you're careful on the cutting. The permanant one has a serial number on it and you can just punch that into the search and it will cough it up.

They also sell a pre-filter sock that installs over the primary filter. I think if I was in a dusty environment I would invest in that. It is not very expensive. Just a thought. Good luck.

Not sure. The best place to check would be Lowe's or Home Depot. They do not carry this particular filter any more, but most likely can tell you if you can.

I haven't had to get a new filter but if you go online to Hamilton Beach True Air you might find a replacement filter there.Mine has a permanent filter. I wipe the filter down each week with a dust collector wipe or you can use the brush attachment on your vacuum.I highly recommend this filter. I have 2 and plan on ordering a 3rd one later this week.

Yes, there is another filter you can purchase for it. I did, and have not had to use it yet.

Return it. I didn't have that problem. In fact, the air should be cleaner when its running because of the filter.

I haven't replaced my filter yet. However I plan on using generic filler filters from Home Depot. The kind you just cut to size.

It clogged mine up, but nothing I couldn't clean the filter on. I would suggest use a shop vac at first and then go over with your good vacuum.

This product does not have a filter, as it is the recirculating fan system. Your filter is in the main hood system which can be replaced in about 20 seconds.

I don't think you need to buy a replacement filter. I keep vacuuming mine and it does great.

I forgot to replace it one year and after a few months too many, I started to smell dust even after vacuuming. Once I replaced the filter, the dust odor went away after one or two vacuumings. It's expensive, but necesary. Would love to know if anyone has had good experience with the generic version for 1/4 the price!
