No the HEPA filters are made to be replaced. HEPA filters are the best designed filters to clean even microscopic particles out of the air but are not made to be washed.

The HEPA has two filters an inner large cartridge and and outer wrap around pre filter screen. The outer filter can be easily removed and rinsed out. Just make sure you thoroughly air dry it before replacing it. It wraps around the inner cartridge and fastens with two velcro fasteners. We haven't needed to replace the inner one yet and haven't ordered one. We use it to filter dog dander and normal air particles. If you have a lot of dirt you are filtering just rinsing the outer one may or may not be enough.

The Hepa filters are able to be rinsed out and dried. Just remember, not to submerge your dust bin into water as there are sensitive electronic sensors in there. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean that unit. last make sure filters are dry before reassembly.

No, the unit doesn't have a filter. I have been thinking of getting some hepa filter paper and putting it on the fan outlet for better cleaning actually.

It is a filter cartage which the machine cleans it self. If you want to use an HEPA filter cartage, it goes in place of the standard cartage that comes with the machine. The two cartages are mounted inside the head. You will see it when you take the top off to remove the debris.

To RESET the Electronic Filter Check: Fig. 5a Fig. 5b Will illuminate when it is time to clean HEPA filters HHT-080 Series HHT-100 Series When the filter monitor light remains on, it is time to check/clean the HEPA-Type filters and reset the filter monitor, if needed. With the unit powered on, insert the tip of a ball-point pen or paperclip next to the LED filter check light and hold for approximately 5 seconds until the light turns off (Fig 5a & 5b). Depending upon your individual usage (environment and hours used), you may need to check and clean the filters more or less frequently. If the HEPA-Type filters are cleaned before the filter monitor light turns on, the filter monitor should be reset at the same time. These cleaning intervals are intended as guidelines only. Performance of any filter media is dependent upon the concentration of contaminates going through the system. High concentrations of contaminates such as dust, pet dander and smoking will reduce the useful performance of the filter. NOTE: The HEPA-Type filters are not washable.

No, the dirt is supposed to be tapped out of the filter into the garbage. To quote the owner's manual it states (in capital letters) "DO NOT RINSE OR WASH THE FILTER MADE WITH HEPA MEDIA".

It does not say hepa anywhere so I would guess no. There are two washable filters that are very easy to get to and rinse with water and air dry.

I usually bang as much dust out of it as I can when I empty the bin. Then just vacuum the filter itself whenever it seems to be REALLY dirty. We've got 3 of the HEPA filters and just rotate them in and out.

No. A new HEPA filter should be purchased when old one needs to be replaced.

It's pretty easy. Just pull it out and shake it in the trash. I usually knock it against the side of the trash can a couple of times to remove the dust collection. Then just push it back in. Oh and based on the previous response, you push the button on the front to release the top collector. I usually have to pull it off, flip it over, then reach down and pull out the filter.

I am not sure, the HEPA filter looks to be made of paper. I do not think that it can be washed with water. It could perhaps be blown clean with air under pressure. I have an air compressor which one day will be used to try to clean the filter. Until then, I am keeping mine away from water.
