SHARK Filter Kit

For optimal suction, we recommend rinsing the foam and felt filters under water every month. Allow them to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstalling. Replace the set entirely every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if you notice a drop in performance.

This kit is compatible with a wide range of Shark corded stick vacuums, including the HZ2000, HZ2002, HZ702, and UV580 series. Please check your vacuum's model number against the full list of compatible units—such as the HH202, HS152AMZ, and QS2000 series—before purchasing.

No, you should never operate your vacuum without the filters installed. Doing so can allow dust and debris to enter the motor, which may cause permanent damage to the machine.

The foam filter captures larger debris and dust particles, while the felt filter acts as a secondary, finer barrier to trap smaller allergens and dust. Both are essential for maintaining the vacuum's airflow and filtration efficiency.

Rinsing with clean water is sufficient to remove dust and debris. Avoid using soap or detergents, as residue can clog the filter material and potentially affect the vacuum's performance.
