Does removing loose dust with a vacuum affect the treated layer?

The label directs that the filter is not washed, vacuumed, brushed, blown out or reused, and the filter is replaced rather than cleaned.

The NanoFlashing™ Air Filter label instructs: “Do not wash, vacuum, brush, blow out or reuse this filter.” It also states: “A used filter holds the dust and microorganisms it has taken out of the air.” and directs that the used filter is put straight into a bag or waste container and is not shaken out or blown clean. NanoFlashing™ is a permanent positive polarity engineered into filter media itself. It is a physical property of the filter.

The company publishes no result for a filter that has been vacuumed, and it does not carry a result across to a condition a test did not cover.
