Yesterday I bought a Ridgid shop vac at the local HD. It was a special ,
12 gal @ 29.95.
On the first day of a three day sale, at 9:00 AM there were two in the
store.
My experience has been with Craftsman (a screamer) and Shop Vac (much
quiter)
Both had a problem with filters that clog up quickly. I have been using
bags for quite a while.
There doesn't seem to be any bag, or foam sleeve option with the Ridgid.
Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to alleviate the clogging
problem.
There isn't much help on their web site that I could find.
Thanks,
Frank
Cleanstream is your answer!

Worth every penny!
I put one in a cheap Sears wet/dry I carry in my service truck. With the
factory filters it would plug up in a coulpe of minutes, with the
Cleanstream filters it will run alot longer. Major differance.
