Thank you for your feedback and we fully understand your disappointment about the warranty inspection results.
Debris in the blower wheel, it is an indication that the vac had been run without a filter, or with a damaged filter, which is a violation of the proper usage of the vacuum. For example, if debris were to become lodged in the blower wheel, it will cause the motor to be out-of-balance and possibly damage the vac. Because the failure of the vac was caused by its misuse and/or abuse in violation of the owner’s manual and was not due to a defect in workmanship or material, we respectfully decline warranty coverage.
Again, we understand the disappointment about the results of the warranty inspection but please understand that debris in the blower wheel is a misuse situation.
If you have questions or concerns, you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.
Sincerely,
RIDGID Customer Service
Thanks for the time to write us a review and we're sorry to hear about this. The HD1400 product we are selling presently comes with the standard white filter, VF4000. This is a temporary component change due to COVID-19 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) mask support. We are temporarily replacing the 3-Layer filter (VF5000) component. Due to raw materials that are normally used in our production of the 3-Layer Fine Dust filter component (VF5000) being redirected for PPE mask manufacturing support, we are unable to provide the filter previously included with this product. We are providing customers with a 1-Layer Filter (VF4000) component and a dust collection bag. Please note the dust collection bag was not typically included with this purchase. The standard filter and dust bag, that have temporarily been provided in the vacuum purchase, will provide a comparable level of filtration when used together. The dust bag will also allow users to capture and dispose of debris. On the other hand, please call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you with the damaged filter. Kindly provide both model and serial number when you call.
Thanks,
RIDGID
