Mine has been going over a year now no problems but the jets do get clogged every other use or so .. Expecially if u leave plants in cloner for too long and the roots get really long.. 7-10 days is more then enough time for growth.. I just use a paper clip and carefully unclog .. The jets are a standard size and u can actually find replacement jets at your local hydro store or online ....

I took them off by unscrewing them carefully and used a paper clip to clear the clogged sprayers. The first time they clogged because of pieces of the black plastic tubing from the the manufacturing process. Its cheap to just buy new heads as well.

If the clog is from hard water as in lime and calcium buildup, unscrew the jets and soak then in CRW or Lime Away overnight. The buildup left over will flake off easily. Make sure to thoroughly rinse the jets before reinstalling

You have to wipe all the gritty out being careful around the jets and seals.

I haven't used the coffee pot yet but I don't remember reading anything in the instructions about how to clean the jets. Could it be they are self cleaning?

We run it through the dishwasher with no problems. Tip: place it where it will get a thorough rinse; a few times there have been soap crystals in it because it was in a corner of the dishwasher where the jets didn't get all the way up inside during the rinse.

I am just getting ready to clean mine as well. In looking over the instructions it is suggested to use a pipe cleaner, or feather duster and/or a vacuum to get the loose dirt and dust out.

This message will appear when the clean side solution runs low (or empty) and the dirty side tank is full. Check the tanks by lifting the little rubber tabs marked 'dirty' and 'clean' on top of the unit. You must empty the dirty water before you can continue. I always rinse the (dirty) tank and the filter well before I either 1) refill the clean side and continue cleaning, or 2) clean my Scooba 's tanks and filter, and place on charge for the next job.

Clean it... Meaning-take the intake tubes off and clean them out. Take the whole filter out(keeping the bio wheel in tank water) and try to flush out the impeller. It's just getting hummed up inside.

Yes you should always at least clean the filter. If it gets too clogged it will burn the motor out.

Honestly I have never had to clean it. Im thinking a heavy duty degreaser or some type of acid base cleaner might do the trick. Maybe even bleach and let it soak. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Almost four years running nonstop and its still going strong.

I'm sure this won't help but I simply spray with jet stream the opposite way that the air goes through. I don't even know how well my washing works. this is my first washable filter. heads up, since the border is metallic, might need a cushion border to prevent banging noises.

I'd use compressed air to clean it rather than washing it, just need to remove any larger particles of dirt and grit that it may have picked up.

Take the filter out and run the pump without it. if the pressure seems right it is the filter. I always clean mine as soon as I take them out but they do start to get clogged after a while. Make sure you clean good between the folds in the filter!

You don't! The only cleaning is surface cleaning on the outside of the unit. The manual recommends wiping with a dry cloth. It's maintenance free - plug it in and only dry wipe the shell when needed.

We own a DC07 for almost 4 years now. I clean the filter as instructed in the manual. However, this time I noticed some clogging in holes of the shroud instead the canister. Just a few simple and careful twists the shroud came off. I rinsed and all the holes are clean. Thinking of these holes being clogged and noticing some other fine dust inside the tubing, I wondered about the fine dust elsewhere. I used a T15 star bit and unscrewed the 3 screws on the top. 2 of the cyclones were clogged at the top. I said hhhmmmmm. I then went online to Dysons site and it is not recommended to rinse anything other than the canister and filter. Whatever, I rinsed the entire cyclone canister with luke warm water as there are no electrical parts in this area of the Dyson. A little water is heard in the cyclone area, so air drying is the only option. It is easy to disassemble and to reassemble. No need to take to a repair vac, they will tell you they do not like Dysons . They want you to trade them in though...and then I see they sell them as reconditioned...total scam. After the drying time of 24-48 hours, it performs just as it did when it was new. Total time of disassembling and cleaning the entire cyclone area, canister, filter and brush is under 30 minutes. Let dry and reassembly is under 15 minutes.

No. Not really. It works great. I have used a safety pin to clean it out every now and then but have never had it where it was completely clogged up.

I add clorox to the water, put the attachment that spins in the full bowl of water and let it soak for an hour or so. I do this about twice a month or whenever needed. My air cleaner runs 24/7. Awesome if a person has allergies.
