How often do you maintain your vacuum ?
I maintain my Compact Electra C9 Canister vacuum every 4 to 5 months bags filters check hose for clogs and power head maintenance.Today i check the power head stretch belt dirty brush roll a new belt and a lil cleaning fixed that now she works like new . Now for my Electrolux Discovery 2 upright i clean the brush roll and came to found out that the bearing needed cleaning im talking about the brush roll bearing here took those out soak them in warm water for 10 mins or so dry ed the put it all back together the brush roll works fine and rolls easily .Maintaining your vacuum can save hundred of dollars some times clog hose or bag or filter s cant alter the flow of the air the machine produces .Stretch belt don't perform to there full potential so whit that in mind i keep my vacuum fleet running great all year round . |
