The Eureka DCF‑3 Vacuum Filter is a high‑quality replacement dust‑cup filter designed specifically for select Eureka bagless upright vacuums. It is engineered to trap fine dust, allergens and airborne particles that pass through the dirt‑cup chamber, helping to maintain cleaner air and protect your vacuum’s motor system.
Constructed with pleated media and a rigid frame, this cartridge‑style filter ensures stable airflow and consistent filtration performance. The durable design supports frequent use and is built to maintain its shape while preventing dust bypass, which helps reduce wear on internal components and prolongs the life of your machine.
Compatibility is straightforward: the DCF‑3 filter fits the Eureka 5700 and 5800 series uprights (among others) and replaces original part numbers such as 61825 and 62136. Installation is tool‑free and simply involves removing the old filter and snapping in the replacement. By maintaining proper filtration, the filter supports peak suction and operational efficiency—meaning fewer clogs, better performance and improved indoor air quality. Supervacuums+1

Use Case
This filter is ideal for homeowners who own a compatible Eureka upright vacuum and are looking to maintain or restore strong suction and clean airflow. It’s especially useful during scheduled maintenance (e.g., replacing a tired filter), after heavy usage (pet hair, large debris loads), or when upgrading to a more effective cartridge filter to improve indoor air quality and protect the vacuum’s motor and airflow paths.
