Step-by-Step Guide to Maintain Your Dyson After Repair

1. Clean the Filters Regularly

Your Dyson vacuum’s filters are key to maintaining suction. After your vacuum has been serviced, it’s recommended to:

Wash filters every 4–6 weeks (depending on usage)
Use only cold water and let them dry for 24 hours minimum
Avoid detergents or hot water which may damage filter material

Clean filters prevent dust blockages and ensure smooth airflow a vital part of long-term Dyson performance.

2. Empty the Bin Frequently

Don’t wait until the dust bin is completely full. Emptying the bin after every few uses:

Maintains airflow and suction
Prevents clogging around the cyclone shroud
Reduces wear on internal seals

Keeping your Dyson’s bin clean ensures it continues to operate at the same efficiency as when it left Dusti’s repair workshop.

3. Inspect the Brush Bar and Roller Head

Hair, string, and carpet fibres can easily wrap around your Dyson’s brush bar especially in households with pets. Regularly:

Remove tangles and built-up debris
Check for cracks or bent bristles
Ensure the roller spins freely without resistance

If you’re unsure how to disassemble the brush head correctly, you can always reach out to our experts at Dusti in Melbourne for guidance or additional service.

4. Keep the Battery and Charger Clean (For Dyson Stick Models)

For cordless models like Dyson V7, V10, and V15, battery care is crucial. To extend battery life:

Charge your vacuum only after it fully cools down
Avoid storing in extreme temperatures
Clean dust around the charging port with a soft, dry cloth

Proper battery handling ensures consistent performance and helps your Dyson stick vacuum cleaner retain its powerful runtime.

5. Store Your Dyson Vacuum Properly

Where and how you store your Dyson matters. Always:

Keep it upright to prevent strain on components
Store in a cool, dry place
Avoid leaving it plugged in constantly

Correct storage extends the life of internal seals, hoses, and attachments maintaining that “like-new” suction power longer.
