This can cause the entire house to smell unpleasant every time you vacuum.. Fortunately, there’s usually an easy fix!.

Flashing Red Light: Motor Overheating.Many Shark vacuum cleaners have an automatic shut-off system to protect the motor against overheating.

When the vacuum detects overheating, the suction motor will switch off and the brush roll indicator light will flash red.. Here’s how to solve this issue:.Turn off and unplug the vacuum (if you’re using a corded model)..Empty the Shark dust cup.

Check all the inlets and outlets for any blockages that might have caused the vacuum to overheat.Clumps of hair are a common culprit!.

Check the filters for clogging and clean/replace them if necessary (make sure they are fully dry before putting the filters back inside the vacuum).

Allow the vacuum to cool for around an hour before using it again.. To prevent overheating, avoid overfilling your vacuum cleaner and don’t use it for long periods of time without allowing time for cooling.The next tip applies to trash containers you have throughout the house, like the kitchen and bathroom being a standard.

The trick is to make sure trash cans are not only empty but sparkless, clean, and fresh..The point here is to build up the impression that the property is not occupied on the visual level, regardless of its actual status.. An empty and appealing trash can makes any property feels fresh & new.

An extra trick is to clean cans with a detergent that has a strong and welcoming scent.My personal favourite is citruses.. Parvathy Pothan –.
