RIDGID 97457 5-Layer HEPA Replacement Filter for 5-20 Gallon Wet/Dry Vacuums

Fit perfectly, works great for filtering dust. I always use these HEPA filters on my vacuums now as it makes using them indoors much cleaner.

Renovated my entire kitchen and not a drop of dust. Even when sanding compound with a shopvac attachment!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND you use this paired with shopvac bags to catch 90% and this filter will be the backup so you don’t have to clean this filter daily!!

It works great.

This filter is THE way to go if you need to use your shop-vac inside the house and you do NOT want to blow a bunch of dust around. Unfortunately, allergies take their toll on my little girls and myself, so it is worth the extra coin to go with the 5 layer HEPA. (If nothing else, I *think* it's doing a better job of filtering, so I *feel* like a better parent for using it in the house from time to time.) I like the fact that it does not require the plate that comes with the shop-vac. I almost lost the original plate by accident when I disposed of my last filter... Luckily I remembered to remove it AFTER I dug my older filter out of my trash bin just to take one last look to see if the filter could simply be cleaned and reused... I decided to go ahead and toss it since it had gotten wet and pretty gunked-up. Now I just keep the original plate in the garage in case I need it in the future.

This filter definitely reduced the dust when sanding my project car in the garage. Only complaint is it gets clogged up and reduces the vacuum performance rather quickly...after about 1 day of 200 grit or finer. So I make sure I drag my garbage bag outside to knock off the dust and reinstall for the next day.

I was about to throw the shop vac out and buy another when I decided to call the company. The customer representative told. me the issue with my vac was it needed a new filter and suggested this one for pets. Works amazing and the issue was solved! Highly recommend trying a new filter before going the expense of buying a new shop vac!

I forgot to take a pic of the vacuum’s inside but it works for this model in the picture. I created a dust extractor but it can literally suck anything into the 5 gallon bucket. No dust goes into my vacuum but if it does, it’s protected by this green filter. I just remodeled a home and this sucked all the debris with full power.

This filter makes using the shop vac with fine dust very easy, and it can be washed and re-used over and over again. We use our vacuum to clean out our chinchilla cage, which has a lot of bathing dust (very fine sand, similar to wallboard dust). Material like this would either go right through a normal filter or plug it up in minutes - but this filter works great. I’m sure it would work well with construction dust as well. Worth the added expense because it lasts so long.

Excellent produit original de Ridgid. La boîte était tout déchirée et vraiment mal en point à l’arrivé j’ai eu une petite crainte. Mais le filtre était impécable. Je m’en suis servi pour aspiré de la poussière de plâtre et je voulais pas en remettre en suspension dans l’air, vraiment efficace. J’avais au préalable branché un « dust deputy » de Oneida à mon aspirateur. Les deux ensemble un peu encombrant mais une vrai merveille.

Excelente filtro muy buen material y protege la aspiradora evita polvos cuando se aspira recomendable

The filtration efficiency of this one was really different from the other ones I bought of Amazon. This is a true HEPA filter and really brings the background particle concentration levels in my system to nearly zero counts.

Me llegó en tiempo y forma. Es un filtro para mi aspiradora Ridgid y es el mejor para el modelo que tengo. Fácil de instalar.

Cumple con mi expectativa de precio.
