How to fix loss of suction in a Shark Vacuum,🤔 

I love my Shark, it is over ten years old. I do all the maintenance on it myself. The life of your vacuum depends on how you keep you filters and hose clean. Oh and don’t forget to clean the beater bar.

The first half of this video was very informative as far as cleaning the unit. After that it turned into a "What's he doing? We can't see it?"

Thank you. My husbamd said he tried everything to fix tbe suction until he seen your video. I already bought a new shark (different model) which SUCKS. actually it doesnt suck very good. And it tips over evey time i use it. I still want two vacuums one for house and other for basement and garage. Thank you for video. I'll update if this works. 👍💗

Thanks!! I knew about the foam filter but not the second filter by the motor!

Thank you this was a HUGE help. My filters were as bad as this person's lol now they are clean and drying! Fingers crossed the vaccum sucks again!

Thank you. We just cleaned the filter and once again the vacuum really sucked 😉

The best vacuum ever

Thanks for the tutorial. My Shark lost suction and the culprit was the dirt build up in the hose.

Hey I just scrubbed & hose rinsed my nasty not to blackened hepa filter. How long do I have to wait until it drys in the sun to replace ?

Informative video. How does one attach the red tab next to the S hose in the back if it pops off?

I would honestly replace the body unit itself since it has been used so long

I have a corded PowerFin Shark Vacuum. I have cleaned everything, don't have any blockage. My Hardwood Floor setting stopped working and the other two settings the suction has decreased. Any idea? It's only like a year old and used at home only.

Great vacuum. This particular model is the only one I like. Every other Shark model Ive tried doesnt even compare, which I thought was odd. Its kind of a trip how you really dont lose suction when the tank gets full. Only one thing I dont like is that the white plastic has yellowed with age.

😂😂😂don't blame your water pressure from how dirty the filter is 😂😂😂 The shark Rotator vacuum NV500 Blows all vacuums out the ballpark I've had the most expensive vacuums and they were trash compared to the Shark I used one at a Baby shower and I was floored 😮 I had to have it I ordered it that evening 5 years old and still sucks up the entire house 😂 powerful and only $300 yes please

I have a Shark Navigator Liftaway vacuum cleaner (purple). I am having trouble with both latches on the removable canister. They don't stay locked. I don't believe they are broken however, they come unlocked as soon as I turn the vac on.

section 352, "just watch and learn", hmm, perhaps a rehearsal of this video would have been appropriate🙃

Can HEPA filters be washed? I've heard both yes & no.

My filters have all been replaced and no blockages anywhere yet my machine nv800ukt smells of dust when I use it... What can I do?

HOW? WHEN I CLEANED MY HEPA FILTER IT REALLY DIDNT END WELL. IT TOOKS FOREVER TO TRY AND HAS LIKE BURN MARKS ON IT.

Question: Have you ever seen a dirtier HEPA filter than this one?

My tube was clogged and i took a hanger, put a barb on it and then cleaned the tube out and it worked great again

Hey I have a shark vac. But I have no suction at all. I clean everything, the roller work but no suction. Help!!

Ok but HOW did you get the grey ring off the handle?

I have a shark rotator nv60 model and there’s suddenly no suction! My filters are clean. There’s no obstructions. I’ve cleaned the hoses and it now won’t turn on standing up right or pick up anything from the carpet. I’m at a loss on what to do now short of getting a new vacuum.

The part I need to see is off screen … why???

Nice vid but l sure wish you'd kept the camera on the handle/hose disassembly. Thx.

I cleaned out my filters and mine still doesn’t t work.

OUT OF FRAME FOR THE PART I MOST NEEDED TO SEE 😡

I have a shark rotator professional lift away and it’s getting old

Fascinating!

I cant see sh**t🧐🧐👁..esp when you was repairing hose.. why a ground wire???

The one thing I see that you need to do is move the camera so we can see all that you are doing. You are telling us, buy pictures would be better for some of us. Thank you

He never finished the video lol
