Does anyone have any tips/tricks for cleaning these filters out? We currently knock them out outside and use airhose to blow them out. Just curious if yall do anything different? we have two sets and rotate them. Sets of filters for this aren't cheap. I told my tech to try sucking them out at the local wawa/sheetz but he doesn't think that will work better than beating them against brick wall outside.

I had mine for over twenty years before I decide to send them in to the refiner to see what they were worth. Replacements were almonst $500.

I do not use the this but i use the same method, beat the dust out and air hose it. No fun with the air hose but it doe clean very nicely you can tell the difference when you put it back and run the unit.

Got it.
BEAT IT HARD

I suppose you could also drag it behind the car like George did with the Yankees trophy :)
