4. The most dangerous reason is a short circuit of internal parts, their melting and burning.

A musty smell comes from a vacuum cleaner when the gadget is used regularly, but the equipment is not taken care of. All household appliances need minimal maintenance.

Experts advise washing the reusable dust bag from time to time. It would not be a bad idea to rinse the textile filters.

While these elements are being washed and dried, the vacuum cleaner is aired out in the open. These procedures are enough to prevent the vacuum cleaner from becoming a source of musty odor.
