Most vacuum filters should be replaced every 3-6 months, depending on usage frequency and household conditions. HEPA filters typically last 12-18 months with regular cleaning. For bagless vacuums, clean washable filters every 1-2 weeks. Replacement filters cost between $15-$50 depending on the brand. Failing to replace filters can reduce suction power by up to 50%.
