Hi Folks

Has anyone else had the problem of their airhead filters becoming noisy?

Mine started about 2 weeks ago and even stripping it down and giving it a good clean still was noisy.

The problem

after stripping it down I found it was the impeller blades that was the problem - not catching properly on the magnetic rotator.

The solution

Put a small rubber band around the magnetic rotator (make sure it does`nt go on the central pin) and it needs to be a small rubber band and not overly tight. Then push your impeller blade back onto it.


Result

A NICE SILENT airhead
