Sponge, or foam, filters catch fine lint and dust that would otherwise clog the parts further along the airflow. Electrolux uses them in several types of appliance, and the description doesn't name which one this suits, so compare the shape and number with your current filter. Another sponge filter assembly sits under a different number, so take care to match the right one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy sponge filters need replacing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA foam filter works by trapping particles in its open cell structure. Washing it restores most of the airflow, but after many cleans the foam compresses, tears or hardens, and fine dust starts slipping through. A clogged or damaged filter cuts airflow, which can mean longer run times, weaker suction or drying, overheating, error messages and a musty smell. If your filter has holes, crumbles when squeezed or stays discoloured after washing, it's time for a new one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 140237968015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSponge (foam) filter assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppliance not named, match by part number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting and looking after the filter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the appliance off and unplug it before removing a filter.
