how to replace the filter of a dyson dc18 - hepa air filter replacement

Many modern vacuum cleaners are equipped with advanced HEPA air filters to help filter allergens, dust and debris when vacuuming.
Dyson's DC18 vacuum cleaner is no exception as it features a bag-free tank and a clean HEPA unit.
Every month or so you will want to clean up the filter and over time you will want to replace the HEPA filter if you notice that the filter itself is torn.
First, you need to turn off the vacuum and unplug it.
Look for the jar release device on the jar handle and press it once.
Carefully remove the jar from Dyson with its handle.
Place the jar on the trash can, press the release button and gently shake the debris into the trash can.
Next, look carefully at the cartridge chamber where the cartridge is located.
The filter itself is circular, located at the bottom of the tank room.
Find a small pull piece at the top of the filter and straighten it up to remove the HEPA filter.
Gently shake the filter on the trash can, then soak in cold water for a few minutes.
After that, let it dry completely before replacing it to the tank room.
If you notice any tearing or excessive wear on the filter, you need to replace it.
Purchase a new HEPA filter for Dyson DC18 with part number 911685-01.
You can usually find these replacement filters in the official Dyson sellers, department stores, online stores and home repair shops.
Insert the new filter into the compartment at the bottom of the compartment to make sure the pull of the filter is up.
Make sure the filter is flush at the bottom of the vacuum tank chamber.
Replace the jar and make sure it clicks in place again.
Run a new filter for vacuum testing.
If a lot of dust comes out of the vacuum, the filter needs to be adjusted.
In addition, if the suction of the vacuum seems to be reduced, please check if there is no blockage under the filter, and the plastic sheet is facing up when the filter is placed.
