Pamela Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 We have had our Lotus Bay for one week, so it is time to clean the filters. We bought two extra so we could switch out. Do you leave the thin paper band on the filter? It looks like it would be easier to clean deep down if the band was removed. I have not taken the band off for fear that it would be the wrong thing. Please tell me what to do. Thank you, Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpb35 Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Leave it on! The filter will last a lot longer if you do. Just spray it out once a week for a month, then every month soak it in the filter cleaner stuff you can buy at your dealer. if you do that it will last for a few years.

Duke IKON Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 leaving the band on will help keep the pleats seperated so the filter gets even flow. it helps but its not needed.
