Tips for making the vacuum cleaner spread a good scent

Distribute scent in the rooms by vacuuming

During vacuuming you can also simultaneously spread a pleasant scent in the rooms: either you drip something Essential oil, such as peppermint oil into the filter or bag, or you add some laundry detergent into the vacuum cleaner bag. Smells wonderful!

No overfilled vacuum cleaner bags

If the Vacuum cleaner bag is too full or has been used for a long time, unpleasant odors can also arise; furthermore, mites or bacteria can settle. Therefore, change the bag regularly and dispose of the full one.

Change filter

Another reason can be a dirty filter. If the filter is too dirty, it can happen that the air in the device is no longer sufficiently filtered, which causes the bad smell.

Caution when vacuuming up moisture

If it happens that you have vacuumed up moisture with the Vacuum cleaner, the heat and moisture generated in the vacuum cleaner can promote mold and bacteria. This can very often lead to unpleasant odors – here you must dispose of the bag quickly and let the device air dry well.

Check motor

If all the points listed above are excluded, it may also be that the vacuum cleaner motor is defective.

Extra tip: Clean the vacuum cleaner regularly and change the vacuum cleaner bag. Also, always wipe out and clean bagless vacuum cleaners to prevent bad odors in advance.
