How to clean HEPA filter in air purifier???
carpet and dust?
i have bad dust allergy and im allergic to mold im pretty sure its the dust causing my problems though..the carpet in my room has been neglected for years hasnt been vacummed in years untill recently ..no matter how much dusting and vaccuming i do theres dust particles in the air and dust build up on furinture begins almost instantly..i have a humidifier i have an air purifier with hepa filter and nothing seems to helps i feel it on my skin i feel on my hair..and i feel the urge to sneeze but dont since im on so many allergy medications..my question is the odds good that most of this dust coming from my carpet and its just to far gone…if i get rid of the carpet and put down hard floor do you think it would get rid of a good majority of the dust..i know its impossible to get rid of dust completly and carpets are just one of the problems but i can clean all the other stuff the carpet just seems like a lost cause,give me your thoughts
Get it steam cleaned. The moisture in the steam doesn’t let the dust go airborne and it’s sucked up immediately by the steam cleaner. In the future, vacuum regularly. Also, vacuums come with HEPA filters on the air discharge these days. You might have to spend $150+ for a good, new vacuum cleaner. But, it sounds like it would be worth it for you.

Run the HEPA filter under warm running water and allow to dry preferably where it can get air from both sides of filter, do not dry in direct sunlight this can damage the filter, it is best in a warm room, can be dried in a dishdrainer if possible this way it gets air from both sides and will dry fast without promoting mold/mildew Good Luck !
When I clean the filters to my vacuum and my heating system, I use clear water with perhaps a little Lysol to help loosen and lift out dirt. But make sure you don’t wring them: That will make them break down faster.
Good luck!
