What about saving money by maximizing the life of our home appliances? Before throwing your vacuum cleaner, you are given 3 tricks to make sure it is really unrecoverable .

Problem 1: my vacuum cleaner smells bad

Dirt accumulated over time can produce unpleasant odors . Sometimes, to remove a bad stench, simply change the bag more often and slip in a cotton soaked with tea tree (antibacterial) essential oil! And to avoid the manipulation being vain, it is also thought to change the filter that protects the engine (and thus also retains dust) every 5 bag changes.

Problem 2: it aspires nothing

We make sure that the power variator is on the right position (a clumsy move, it happens). It still does not work ? After changing the bag, cleaning / changing the filter, check that there is no obstruction in the tube or hose. How? Passing in a ferret or a wooden stem. The interior of the hull is also thoroughly cleaned with a microfiber cloth and a brush.

Problem 3: There is overheating!

Bag and filter are new and the vacuum heats abnormally? Check the condition of the plug and the insulation of the cord immediately. If they are OK, the motor may be short-circuited: it is best to contact the after-sales service of the unit .
