Loud Compact Vacuum.....
Depending on what is meant by loud. It could be a couple of things:
1). Dirt in the fan blades that cause it to go out of balance and have a harmonid sounding "WHOOOOOOOOM" when the cleaner is running. 2). Bent fan blades: it takes almost nothing to bend the delicate aluminum fan blades in a lamb style motor used in Compact, Tri-Star, Filter Queen and others. It is possible to bend the fan blades during disassembly and reassembly. Personally, I would recommend getting a new 1-speed Lamb motor for it. They are cheap to buy and very easy to reinstall. Once that is taken care of you will easily get another lifetime out of it and there will be no hassle. I replaced the motor on my DXL and the thing is a dirt finding beast now, quieter and much more powerful than with its old motor. | ||
