Overview
The Eureka Pre-Motor Filter Part # 71480 is a replacement filter used in several Eureka vacuum models. It serves an important function by filtering dust and debris before air passes through the motor. This helps to ensure better motor protection and performance while keeping your home cleaner by trapping particles.
Pros:
- Improved Air Quality: The pre-motor filter helps keep the motor from getting clogged with dust and debris, leading to longer vacuum lifespan and better performance.

- Good Filtration: It captures dust particles and dirt before they can reach the motor, which is especially important for allergy sufferers.
- Cost-Effective: Compared to other high-efficiency filters, this one is generally affordable.
Cons:
- Needs Regular Maintenance: The filter needs to be cleaned periodically. If ignored, it can lead to reduced suction power and may affect the motor's performance.
- Frequent Replacement: Depending on the vacuum usage, you may need to replace it every 6-12 months.
- May Not Fit All Models: This filter is only compatible with specific Eureka vacuum models, so checking compatibility before purchase is essential.
