Housekeeper here, pro tip: but a mesh laundry bag, put your dirty filters, (hepa and cloth filters) in it and wash them in the washing machine. The mesh protects them. I do this at least 3 to 4 times a week to keep my sharks clean after each use in my clients homes. Then air dry them. Same for the canister, a pressure hose will clean the mesh filter. All my vaccums have suction as of they were new and I use them A LOT!

Total lifesaver for me today!! I couldnt figure out why my vacumn wasnt sucking up, it was just spitting out and making a whirring sound, followed your video and in the bottom hose it was soooo clogged! The whirring sound is gone and it picks up, but I feel like it was still spitting some out behind me when I had the carpet setting on, but when I switched to the floor it was fine. As long as I go over the floor slowly to allow it to pickup on the carpet setting, it will pickup and not blow back. THANKS SO MUCH!!!

Thanks for video. Truly a deep clean. I have this exact model after all these years. I have a spare filter set I bought and that way I can replace them while the other is being cleaned and then dried. I don’t think mine has ever gotten as dirty as this one. I will say I think it’s easier to go ahead and dunk the debris bin in soapy water and wash it that way (a small angled brush or bottle brush would probably make it easier). I just leave mine to dry overnight after I attempt to dry it off. The two things I dislike about this old model is the lack of lights and that part in the bin where the dust/hair gathers and I almost always have to stick my hand inside to remove the glob. We do have kitties and two long haired people here, but still...the professional Shark/years newer model, they worked that kink out because the bin is easier to empty on it. And my newer one has lights. I really wanna upgrade to the DuoClean as soon as we’re able. I feel behind in the vacuum times. 😆

Abrupt ending. Soaking the main canister in hot soapy water would seem to be much more efficient. Blow drying with an air compressor would efficiently remove all water and prevent any future rusting. If you were doing this frequently, get an ultrasonic cleaner, makes work work of embedded dirt.

Your video was very helpful, thank you. I haven't had a deep cleaning to my vacuum since I bought it 2 years ago, so I learned a lot about the parts I need to maintain properly. One thing I felt could be improved is to use biodegrable detergent (because the one you use will be bad for the soil in your yard, and the environment, and it will send a nice message to everyone following your instructions). Thanks again for being so throurough.

Thanks for a great video! I couldn't remember if I should wash the felt filter (having misplaced the owner's manual!) so this was most helpful. When you discussed blockages, though, it reminded me of the time my Shark just wouldn't pick up anything and my husband was all set to go buy a new vacuum but I knew there had to be something going on. I took off all the hoses, as you recommend, and found a Bic pen caught in the U bend! It was tricky getting it out, but so worth it since the machine works great again! That was several years and two houses ago, so I'm really pleased with my Shark investment!

Thank you. My first shark was the one in this video and what I have now is purple. Both state in instructions to rinse filters with cold water. The first one I put the filters except the hepa in the washing machine a few times before reading not to do that. I used either hot or warm water. After that would hand rinse but with hot water while putting a cleaner in the filters beforehand at times before rinsing clear. The purple I only rinsed but with hot water. Since instructs cold water I will use at least luke cold.

I was pretty frustrated when I couldn't get the cover off, & this video calmed me down.. I love LOVE my Shark! I also got it used. It wasn't near as dirty as the one you're working on. I've made sure I have a couple filters at least, that way I can wash the first one & let it dry completely, & put the 2nd one on so I'm not without my vacuum for the 24-48hr dry time. It works really well. Someone here mentioned getting filters on Amazon & I did that as well. Life savers! I have to cut my 30" hair off of the Brush roll OFTEN lol, but doing proper maintenance has kept my vac like new for around the four years that I've had it. & Lastly, my husband was so impressed with my Shark Nav Lift away that he bought a 2nd one, used as well! Now he can clean up the messes from his builds, projects & other things any time he needs to, which is really helpful! Thanks again!

Curious... When did they change from the "donut" filters on the NV series? The old ones had more surface area for filtering and honestly weren't all that hard to clean. (Now I'm wondering if it's still easy enough to get them?) Other than that, it's better to clean the filter after every three uses instead of three months or so. Keeps a significant portion any really fine material from getting to the motor and that's what can eventually kill the vac in the long term. Looks like whoever had that one last never really stayed on top of that part of maintenance. Also to clean out the hoses from anything that sticks after using some soap, a soapy rag with string tied to it. Thread string through and bunch up the rag so it's a bit hard to pull through but not completely stuck. Pull that through the hose back and forth a few times to floss anything that may stick if rinsing doesn't do it.

Considering some of the comments here: * The dustbin can be washed out. I take a hose sprayer, set on "Full" or "Jet" and have at it. * All three filters are supposed to washed out with (cold) water; I use lukewarm water. ** I'm surprised the HEPA filter doesn't ever get replaced. I find it interesting that water doesn't flow through the HEPA filter. I fill it with lukewarm water and let it sit in the sun for an hour or so. Flip it over to drain it, then take a hose sprayer to rinse out the loosened stuff. * I don't use any soap, per the owner's manual, but I might be tempted to use a light mixture of Dawn dishwasher detergent and warm water on the two pre-filters. * My Shark (ZU560) keeps the roller brush free of hair, so I don't have any real need to remove it. (We have three cats and a dog; let the reader understand!) It would be nice if it could be *easily* removed so I could sanitize it every once in a while. Instead, I lay the entire vacuum unit outside with the bottom facing sunward, turning the brush a quarter turn every 15 minutes. Ultraviolet rays from the sun is a great sanitizer! * I also let the sun dry and "sanitize" the filters and the dustbin. * Regardless of the sun drying everything out, I still wait 24 hours before using again. * I found the owner's manual for my unit online. (Some comments mentioned not having one.)

I have two Sharks but mine are newer. The taking off of the plating to reveal the brush is different. It is hinged with three quarter turn releases instead of screws. The trick is trying to clean the layers of pet hair, dust etc that build up along the intake cover and the stand up bristles behind the roller. Short of completely disassembling the entire head, it is a chore to clean effectively underneath.

@@itsGaiaPeralta I think manufacturers encourage us to take the sweepers in for maintenance. Most models I've seen have screws within the turner brush housing that need to be removed to get the roller out completely, but require a special tool. The way the newer models are, you can only disassemble it so much and clean it so much without some kind of professional tools. Yes it ends up being a major hassle to clean the roller housing effectively. I guess cleaning it regularly from the start would help a lot.

A gasket showed up in the bin of my NV357 and I'm trying to figure out where it came from so I can glue it back in. My best guess is the end of the short hose that connects into the brush roller. Very similar to what you are holding at 14:02. Thank you for any thoughts and your time.

TIP..... after soaking and scrubbing the inside of the hoses and parts with the best cleaner for the job- which is DAWN..... run a little bleach and water solution thru hoses/parts. To disinfect. To Keep yourself and your household healthy. Don’t forget to spray Lysol (if you have it) onto those filters while they’re drying to kill bacteria

Don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but I use a leaf blower outside (you could also use a hair dryer on cool, but a lot less powerful, or a can of compressed air which gets expensive) to blow out the initial dust and then again after each time I clean something inside. Just be sure to point it away from you. Works a treat.

If you are a diver and have scuba tanks there is an attachment for just dust blowing that absolutely does a great job. Short bursts will clean a lot of junk out. I also use it to blow dust out of my computer but with a bit of distance cause you don't want to blow anything off of the motherboard.

I have an air compressor, with a 50-foot hose, that is always turned on at my house. I use it for my nail guns and tires and to blow the dust off of things. I blow out the filters every time I empty the cup. It takes less than a minute.

I own a shark nv70. The instruction manual for mine says you CAN rinse the HEPA filter under the water dirty side up until it runs clear. If I want to clean the filter inside the dust cup with a scrubby green pad as shown do you need to use soap with it or just plain water to remove the dust from it??

Do you happen to know what the (clear) tube with the spring in it is for (12:30ish on the video) attached to the top of the casing for the motorized brush assembly? I have it attached to the part that would suction the dirt from the floor, but not attached to anything on the other side. Yet, it was full of dust/pet hair? Is it supposed to connect to something? Thanks!

Hello. I accidentally rinses the base where the HEPA filter and cord is with water without thinking about it. If I dry it with a fan, can I still use it without electrocuting myself? Thank you.

I did this to mine. After putting it back together the brush will turn for a second then stop. It won't stay spinning. Is there something I should look for that I may have done wrong putting it together?
