Q:How often should filter be replaced? Does filter need to be taken out after each use and rinsed/dried?
by|Nov 21, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hello BobTheBuilder, Thanks for your inquiry. First, we recommend that you clean your filter outside. To clean and wash the filter, simply remove the filter and knock any debris loose against the side of the dust drum or trash can. The filter then can be washed with water. Gently spray water over the filter - do not power spray the filter as it may cause tears in the filter. You will need to let the filter dry before reinstalling. It is best to let the filter air dry. Do not install a wet filter into the vac and use the vac to speed the drying process. After cleaning your filter, check for any small holes or tears on your filter. If there are any holes or tears in your filter, you will need to replace it - this hole / tear may cause your vac to operate at less than optimal performance and dust may come out of your vac. In addition, we advise that with normal usage of your wet / dry vac, your filter should be replaced twice a year. With heavy use or projects, you may need to replace your filter more frequently. If you have other questions, please call us at -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. Thanks, RIDGID

    Q:Can yiu pick up water without using wet filter in HD 0300
    by|Oct 23, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Hello Virgil, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. When picking up small amounts of liquid (2 - 4 inches (5 - 10 cm) of liquid in the bottom of the drum), the filter may be left in place. When picking up larger amounts of liquid (more than 4 inches (10 cm) of liquid in the bottom of the drum) we recommend that the filter be removed, if you are picking just pure liquid materials, Or use the wet foam filter VF3700, if solid debris are present in or on the liquid you are picking up. If the filter is not removed, it will become saturated and misting may appear in the exhaust. When this happens, take the filter out and let it dry before reinstalling. Note that when picking up large volumes of liquids, the liquid in the drum may reach a predetermined level and the float mechanism will rise automatically to cut-off airflow. This occurs to avoid liquids from entering the power head. When this happens, turn off the vac, unplug the power cord, and empty the drum. If you have additional questions 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. Thanks, RIDGID
