Reddit mentions: The best replacement vacuum filters

The Background:


My tentative setup right now has a two gallon reservoir watering a three gallon Smart Pot. I have a 5-10 gal fish tank filter that I've also added an [activated carbon/ammonia neutralizing crystal] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002566YM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) filter and leveled filter to. I let my water set at room temperature (cycling through the filter) for several days before giving it to the plant. The water is exposed to 388 watts (~84,000lm) of warm and cool white LEDs in a Carbon Dioxide rich environment with filtered airflow.

My city water report is as follows, with ideal levels, followed by current city water levels:

• Haloacetic Acids (HAA5)(ppb): <60, 25.1
  
• Bromate (ppb): <10, 1.8
  
• Total Organic Carbon (% Removal): TT, 52.57
  
• Barium (ppm): <2, 0.3
  
• Flouride (ppm): <4, 0.7
  
• Nitrate [measured as Nitrogen] (ppm): <10, 2.4
  
• Sodium (ppm): MPL, 16
  
• Thallium (ppb): <2, 0.8
  
• Alpha emitters (pCi/L): <15, 4.7
  
• Uranium (ug/L): <30, 1.4
  
• Copper (ppm): <1.3, 0.257
  
• Lead (ppb): <15, 0.003
  
  I presume the Haloacetic Acids are the chlorine they use in the water treatment.
  
  The Questions:
  
  
• My hope is that the Chlorine will evaporate off over a few days, and that the filters I have will grab onto other problematic elements. Is this reasonable to assume?
  
• Should I add anything to my water (pH balance, nutrients, things to help filter contaminants)?
  
• How will temperature of water affect my plants? Should I try to cool or warm it before being added to the grow?
  
• Does light have any effect on water (or microbial life in the water)? Is it just UV, or can wide spectrum or white lights also have an effect?
  
  
  

Honestly, Dyson makes the best cordless cleaners on the market IMO. They're the only cordless cleaners I've come across that have suction comparable to a 'real' vacuum. If you want a cordless cleaner, I'd buy a Dyson and skip the knock-offs.

That being said, Corded cleaners are cheaper, have more power, and have a much longer life expectancy (all Lithium Batteries have a finite lifespan).

I'd consider one of Dyson's corded models if you want Bagless, This DC33 is an excellent machine for the price.

If you want bagged, go for something like This Panasonic or This Hoover


Both of the machines I listed are "commercial grade" vacuums, meaning they lack cosmetic frills. But will be practically un-killable in residential use. Like.. Will literally last you 20 years.

EDIT: I forgot to mention noise levels. The Dyson I linked is extremely quiet, as is the Panasonic. The Hoover is slightly noisier, but nothing that's horrible.

Hey, this is a pretty good deal. Hoovers are a little better than some in that price range. Plus it's bagged! (Bagged = better power, cleaner.)

I have the earlier version of this Black & Decker Pivot Vacuum. It's excellent. Tons of suction, and a compact handy form factor.

You'll want to keep a couple of the replacement filters on hand, that way when the filter clogs up suddenly you can get it back into service immediately.

I ordered these for the 980 this past week and they fit great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016F1Q920/r

I am very sorry for your loss! All of my lists have priorities on them. Sort my priorities! It took my bank ages to send my debit card so I know that feeling.

Things that I need:

A new bra.

The rest of the Mortal Instruments series, City of Glass, City of Fallen Angels, and City of Lost Souls. I have all three of them on my wishlist. My best friend has already finished all that are released right now and I've still just finished the second.

Filters for my vacuum cleaner.

Would something like this do?

I have one of these on my shop vac now actually with this filter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0054DM38K
So that would be sufficient? Thx

My enclosure is large enough to keep the 120 mm fan with the filtration inside the case, so the noise is very little, also I put a speed control on it to control heat loss, as for the 5015 blower, that’s 100 inside the case and just keeps filtering the case air. The blower runs 100% of the time. The top fan only runs when I am printing, it turns on by Temperature. (Link below)

Use an existing cylindrical filter and then take one of those Winix sheet carbon elements, then cut a rectangle of the appropriate size to make it a tight fit when rolled up and inserted inside. I doubt you can wash those filters given how tenacious the tar from smoke is, but at $7+Winix element piece cost (<$10) each, it's hardly a cost-prohibitive solution.

It is a Filter. It collects dust as opposed to your walls

At the time (2011) I got it for $46. There might be alternatives or a cheaper place to find it. NewEgg was $82 or something, not sure why it is so much higher now.

Try replacing the clutch. You can also replace the hepa filter.
The clutch is kind of a pain to install but I feel it was worth it. It picks up everything now.
Here's a tutorial on how to replace the clutch.

Based on the diagram, these look similar, but hard to say

Nice build, thankfully i dont need 100 percent elimination, i just use one of these 3M Filtrete Dirt Devil F2 HEPA Vacuum Filter - 1 filter(Colors may vary) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001AO2RTM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_lFHWBbT617X41

I'm not sure what model Roomba you have but for my 560-

$27 battery - http://www.amazon.com/Powerextra-trade-Capacity-Battery-510/dp/B00D68H6MS/

$16 brush kit - http://www.amazon.com/iRobot-Roomba-Series-Replenishment-Cleaning/dp/B0027VTHW2/

If that's all your Roomba needs that's $43 and about two minutes of your time to get it in working order again. It'd be even less, but on newer Roombas the battery requires removal of the case which is just a few screws.
