Cleaning your vacuum cleaner is important because it helps maintain its suction power, hygiene, and thus, the overall performance. The first step in cleaning a vacuum typically involves unclogging the brush rolls, hose and filter, which allows the vacuum to pick up dirt and debris more efficiently. Regular cleaning also extends the life of your vacuum cleaner, which typically lasts between 4-7 years, by preventing wear and tear on the motor and other components. On top of that, keeping your vacuum clean reduces the spread of dust, allergens and bacteria in your home, creating a healthier living environment for you and your family.

With advancements like AI-powered technology now integrated into many vacuum cleaners, investing in a good vacuum is worthwhile. By taking the time to clean your vacuum regularly, you can keep it operating at its best, saving you money in the long run and keeping your home cleaner and fresher. Start the cleaning process by unplugging the vacuum and removing all moving parts, including the brush rolls, filters and dustbin.

Begin by unclogging any debris from the brush rolls and hose, if needed, use scissors to cut away tangled hair and strings. Wipe down the exterior and all removable parts with a damp cloth, then clear or replace the dustbin with a new one.

Pay special attention to the filters; if they’re washable, rinse them thoroughly and let them dry completely before reattaching. Finally, reassemble all parts once they’re completely dry, and your vacuum will be ready for use again. The cleaning process may vary depending on the type of vacuum, for example, cleaning a robot vacuum is different from cleaning a regular vacuum, as robots have multiple sensors and cameras. The above-mentioned steps generally apply to most common vacuum types.
