Poor maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial to preventing rotting odors from entering your vacuum cleaner. Start by giving it a thorough cleaning, shaking out any debris, and then wash and dry it.

Clogged filters

A clogged filter can cause an unpleasant odor. Clean it by rinsing and drying it, if possible, or replace it with a new one. Disposable elements should also be replaced.

Internal cleaning

Periodically wipe the inside surfaces and bins of the vacuum cleaner with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated debris. It is also important to clean the hoses and tubes as large particles can get stuck in them, causing an unpleasant odor.

Removing debris manually

Regularly remove large debris by hand, as it tends to accumulate. It clogs the hose and produces an unpleasant odor.

Fragrance capsules

Consider placing a scent capsule in the form of powder or tablets in the dust cup of your vacuum cleaner. This will help create a pleasant scent while cleaning and improve overall air quality.
