Generally, buying a new motor is the ideal option if you have a failing or poorly performing vac motor. In most cases, you'll find that repair is either too complicated or is not cost-effective when the price of a new unit is relatively inexpensive. That being said, we do offer quality Ametek replacement parts for the repairs that make sense. The most common maintenance that you can, and should, be doing is changing brushes. In a basic sense, brushes are the component that sends the electrical current to the coil that spins the rotor inside the motor. Over time, the carbon on vacuum brushes wears down and you'll notice the motor is only working sporadically or is completely inoperable.
Pulling out an old brush and swapping it for a new one is not difficult, and it's a low-cost way to add new life to your motor. Even though it's a pretty simple task, it's always smart to understand what you're doing and be comfortable that you're doing it correctly. If you've never replaced brushes before, watch our brush replacement video to see an expert technician demonstrate the entire process with both the Ametek VAL6336 and VAL9414 models.
