Default Vacuuming HEPA filter

As a gift, I received a circular Honeywell air purifier, model 50100. It has a
"Lifetime HEPA Permanent Filter" which one is suppose to vacuum. I'm trying to
make sense of this logic. When you vacuum the HEPA filter, you're pulling the
fine particles away from the filter and spewing it everywhere via the vacuum
cleaner. I'm sure there's some logic behind it, but it just isn't all that
obvious right now. Insights are appreciated.


it does seem ironic but, theoretically the a good vacuum will suck up
the dirt and dust in the in the filter not just spew it around.

Here are some more ideas about how to clean the air in your home,
