Quick tip regarding wet/dry vacuum filters

[Mr_Anderson]

Love it!

Almost have to wonder why someone at Rigid or Shop-Vac, etc. didn't think about this and offer it as an option.

Because then they couldn't sell you as many filters?

But, some wet/dry vacs come with a foam filter. It's supposed to be used instead of the pleated paper filter when vacuuming wet debris, or just liquids. I put the foam filter over my paper filter, using it as a pre-filter. Still remove the paper filter for liquids, though.

I don't remember the models, but I've seen two different Craftsman shop vacs that had this setup.

Like a K&N is made to be washed and re-used, others are one time use.

K&N filters also have an optional pre-filter available for some filter sizes.
