: Bill H.

I haven't. I've thought about it though. The shop where I worked had a huge bag system with 3 huge filter bags, and they never got washed. Technically- the more you use it and the more dust that gets into the fabric the more efficiently it filters small particles, but the less efficient the flow. I don't know if washing it would get the dust out, or force it in. I designate you the guinea pig.
