If you use your vacuum cleaner regularly, then you probably want it to serve you as long as possible.
Overheating can be a very bad sign, so it's better to find and fix the problem that causes it quickly.
Here are a few possible reasons why it might happen.
Clogged filters
If the filters in your vacuum cleaner get clogged with dust, dirt, or debris, it can restrict the airflow.
When the airflow is restricted, the motor has to work harder, which can cause it to overheat.
Full dust bag or canister
When the dust bag or canister in your vacuum cleaner becomes too full, it can obstruct the airflow.
This puts extra strain on the motor, leading to overheating.
Blocked hoses or attachments
If the hoses or attachments of your vacuum cleaner are blocked with large objects or debris, it can restrict the airflow.
The restricted airflow can make the motor work harder and generate excess heat.
Overuse without breaks
Vacuuming for extended periods without giving the vacuum cleaner breaks can cause it to overheat.
The motor needs time to cool down, so it's important to take breaks during long cleaning sessions.
Faulty motor or parts
In some cases, the vacuum cleaner may have a faulty motor or parts that are not working properly.
This can cause the motor to generate too much heat, leading to overheating.
