Review: This is a filter for a Ridgid Vacuum made by the Ridgid company (OEM). It is fully washable and cleans easily with water. It is made of durable, 3-Layer filter material that captures superfine dust particles too small to be seen by the naked eye. This is a high efficiency filter with microban, so you can be sure that it is not spreading germs or the like. The filter has a pleated design which offers a greater surface area that resists clogging more than the other filters. This works best for sawdust, dusty basements attics and garages, car dirt, drywall dust, cement dust, cold ashes from fireplaces and bbq grills, fine powders like flour, talcum/baby powder, and chalk. This filter will fit all 6-20 gallon Ridgid wet/dry vac. I do woodworking and painting and use this filter in my Ridgid when ever I am doing anything that causes a dusty or spray paint mess. I am very happy with this filter.
Review: Produto original e excelente para não deixar o motor do aspirador morrer. (Caro demais, produto deveria ter um custo menor, mas a empresa quer vender o produto e não se importa com o consumidor). Mas o produto é original.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can this filter be used with a non-HEPA vacuum to effectively capture lead dust when cleaning up after lead abatement?**
A: Absolutely not! I am a state certified Lead Inspector/Risk Assessor and I am also certified to teach Lead Safe Renovator classes, both the 8 hr. initial and the 4 hr. refresher. To comply with the EPA's mandates your vacuum must be a true HEPA vacuum. You cannot just put a HEPA filter in a shop vacuum. True HEPA vacs have the HEPA filter as the final filtration and have gasket seals, etc. They subsequently can be quite expensive, but not as expensive as the fines if you get caught using a standard shop vac.

**Q: Is this filter for both uses water and dirt,or dust?**
A: Hello Jeff Riggs, 

Yes this filter can be used for dry materials such as pollens, allergens, and pet dander. It can also be used for small amounts of liquid pickups. If you’re going to pick up large amounts of liquid, we highly recommend the VF7000 wet foam filter. 

If you have further questions or concerns, you may call Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443.

**Q: I have a rigid 6.25 hp 16 gallon wet/dry vac will this filter work with my shop vac?**
A: Yes, this VF6000 will work with RIDGID 5 to 16 gallon wet/dry vacuum.
