Filter Cleaning - Dyson V15 Detect

Maintain your Dyson V15 Detect filter. Extend its life. Dyson cordless vacuum filters are engineered to capture microscopic particles. Over time these particles can build up in the filter and reduce the performance or even can cause the vacuum cleaner to fail. By washing it at least once a month, you can help maintain the suction power of your Dyson V15.
Washing the Filter
If the motor is faulty, the vacuum will appear to be dead. A faulty motor is often caused by another issue such as blocked filters - which can also be the cause of unpleasant smells. You can replace a Dyson filter for $15, but if it’s fairly new, a quick wash might also do the trick.
It’s suggested to wash the filters every month. The following will explain how to remove and clean your filters:
Ensure the vacuum is ‘OFF’ and unplugged.
To remove the filter, lift it out from the top of the vacuum.
Wash the filter with cold water only.
Run water over the outside of the filter until the water runs clear.
Squeeze and twist with both hands to make sure the excess water is removed.

    Thanks for the clear and simple description, Dyson is out for months with prices for the original going up to 80 plus euro. The noname one I got is a perfect fit fortunately, so there will be a wild variety of qualities I guess on the no-brand market (feels identical too)

    Dyson Canada seems to be permanently out of stock of this item, despite the fact that Dyson UK always has stock. This company needs to get its act together.

    To add to what you are saying about generic filters vs Dyson filters: Genuine Dyson HEPA filters are made of PTFE (Teflon). Many of the generic filters are made of cotton, which is not as effective as PTFE at capturing ultra fine particles. True HEPA filters are commonly made out of PTFE or fiberglass. PTFE is highly durable and water repellent, which is why genuine Dyson filters can be washed under cold water. Cotton filters, on the other hand, are not washable because they act as a sponge, where the minerals in the water permanently embed into the filter material. Also, the generic filters are not technically certified to be true-HEPA filters whereas Genuine Dyson filters are. So, when it comes to buying filters for your Dyson, this is just one of those things where it really is best to stick with the genuine, OEM filters. For the V15, genuine Dyson filters are $29.99 on the Dyson website. It is a great price for the level of filtration the offer. Also, the blue filter on the higher end V15’s filter even finer particles than the purple filter. The purple filter is certified to filter 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. The blue filter is certified to filter 99.99% of particles as small as 0.1 microns. The purple filter comes standard on the “V15 Detect,” and the blue filter comes standard on the “V15 Detect+” and the “V15 Detect Absolute.”

    Hallo Angela. Vielen Dank fuer Deinen Kommentar. Ich habe ein paar videos in Deutsch gemacht, wie etwa einige meiner Route 66 videos. Die English sprachige Version hat gute Zuschauerzahlen. Aber das deutschsprachige Video hat nur ein paar hundert Zuschauer. Wenn ich ein Video mache, dann muss ich sicher sein dass das video auch gute Zuschauerzahlen hat, denn Ich finanziere meinem KZread Kanal durch Werbung. Deshalb habe ich es aufgegeben Deutsche Videos zu produzieren. There is just no money it it. Ich wuensche Dir noch einen schoenen Abend 😀👍

    The original dyson filter is half cloth half paper. They tell you you can clean it under tap water but this is bullshit, do not put the paper filter under water! The top part works pretty much like car's air filter and you surely never heard of anyone cleaning those with water. Dust particles are fine like flour and in contact with water it becomes a sticky gunk. This will stick to the paper filter and clog it. The best way to realise that is to compare how the vac works both with a new and a cleaned and dried filter - you don't even need any device for measuring the suction force - even the engines note will be different - so much of the airflow is blocked with a used, cleaned filter instead of a new one. If dyson wanted for the filter to truely be reusable, they wouldn't put paper there. I'm actually staggered no one realises this obvious design flaw..
