F & G Hepa Bags

Hi,


 


At one time I found a box of Riccar Electrolux Tank Bags that were hepa. Could you give us an internet source for the f & g bags or a phone number of a vac shop that would ship them to us.


 


Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am in the process of restoring a Eureka 250 and would like the hepa bags for it.


 


 


Thanks for your help,

F and G bags

I did a couple Google searches and can't find anything on the Hi Flow HEPA bags. I bought mine from Tom at the vacuum museum factory store in St. James, MO. I can take a pic of the box later if that would be helpful, but the easiest thing to do is call them. The number is 573-265-0680. Tom and Connie usually are there and one of those two will answer, and they might send them to you or tell you where to buy them.

You can use Eureka ST type bags in older models, you just have to get the F&G to ST tube adaptor, only works on genuine F&G exhausts though, so any generic bags would be too small and would leak...

I can't find the link to the site, but, I can recall it was called an "overmold assembly" or something similar on the site, a google search might reveal that site, and the ST bags are apparently the bees knees, bigger than the Kirby white bags, so have plenty of surface area to breath...

I haven't tried them, I'm happy with the Electrolux UK equivalent bags (Type E74), which are just basically FilterAire F&G bags, with a microlining on the inside, no Arm&Hammer baking soda though, but still, can't have everything...
