It is important that you change your vacuum cleaner filters and bags on a regular basis to ensure your vacuum cleaner or carpet washer performs to its optimum. We recommend that you change vacuum filters every 12 months vacuum bags when they are full.

RoHS
RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment regulations 2005) has been in force since July 2006 and is applicable in all EU countries.
RoHS aims to reduce the amount of potentially harmful materials that are put into the environment when a product reaches the end of its life. It limits the levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium and the flame-retardants PBB (Polybrominted biphenyl) and PBDE (Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether) in domestic appliances.
Most Vax products manufactured in 2005 and all products manufactured after 1st July comply with RoHS regulations.
