The Filter in your iRobot Roomba s9 captures dust, dirt, pollen, and other allergens as the robot cleans. Over time, these particles build up, reducing the Filter's effectiveness and impacting your robot's performance. Replacing the Filter regularly ensures optimal suction power and clean air output. Delaying replacement can lead to reduced cleaning efficiency and potential strain on the robot's motor.
