We were given a sweeper as a gift, it requires those hepa filters to be replaced. I have been putting it off because it is $20 or more for one filter. It is very dusty. Does anyone have a cheaper solution? Thank You in advance
or vacuum it outside. or use vacuum at the car wash car wash.

I use a stiff brush to dislodge the dust. It seems to work. If the paper is broken, it will need to be replaced, however.

Hi
While it is probably good to replace them every so often, I typically use a "can of air". They are used for cleaning/blowing out computers and keyboards since you cannot really do it in small places with cloths etc. They are not terribly expensive and they last quite a long time. Basically they blast pressured air out of a thin long tube. It has done wonders cleaning my hepa filter until replacement time.
