Does anyone know if someone manufactures Style 1 bags for a Tradition in the HEPA material? Or has anyone figured out how to adapt a HEPA bag to fit a Tradition? I'm guessing the answer is no, but it's worth asking because I love my Tradition and would use it all the time if it filtered better. And, I don't want to change the fill tube; I really want to keep that part original. |

That part NEEDS to be replaced because the Tradition's fill tube is so narrow, it really cut back on airflow. So, even if you could fit a hepa bag, it wouldn't do any good. |

Just out of curiosity one day I took a Eureka RR HEPA bag,and was able to modify it to fit my Kirby Heritage with the style 2 fill tube. I held it on with some zip ties but have not had any problems with it coming off, but I dont use it that much. I just happen to have some extra bags is why I choose the type RR bags and didn't really want to change the fill tube. Trying to do it to a Tradition might be harder and may not work since the fill tube is so small.
