vacuuming is faster and more effective than sweeping.. A high-quality vacuum will pick up more dust and dirt than sweeping alone.
This goes for both the internal dust containers and the Clean Base bags..Dirty or clogged filters can also reduce your Roomba’s cleaning performance.
Roomba filters typically can’t be washed, but you can tap off dirt into a bin to remove the worst debris.Once tapping off no longer removes enough dirt, you’ll need to replace the filter.. As mentioned throughout this article, we recommend emptying the dust container into an outdoor bin.Like all bagless vacuums, Roomba bins allow allergens to escape into the air during the emptying process.
This is also why the Clean Base bags are a more hygienic option – especially if you suffer from allergies.. Make sure the full bin sensor is clean whenever you empty the Roomba.You’ll find instructions for this in your vacuum’s manual, but the process usually involves wiping the sensor with a dry, clean cloth..
Some Roomba vacuums have washable bins, although you’ll need to remove the filter first.
However, other Roomba models have electronics inside the bin, which means they can’t be washed.The goal is to keep rinsing until the water runs clear.
Some Dyson filters are tube shaped, so you can just run them under the tap.Others have a cup shape, so you’ll need to fill the filter with cold water, give it a small shake, tip out the dirty water, then repeat.
Remove excess water.Some Dyson filters can be gently wrung out to remove excess water, while others should just be tapped off into a sink.
