Shop Vac filters for fine ash-washable

[imacman]

I was doing a little research to find a good shop-vac filter ( I really don't want to buy a separate vacuum for the stove) to clean my (hopefully) soon to be delivered pellet stove, and came across this....looks perfect for cleaning ash from the stove. It's also re-usable by washing out and let dry.

For shop-vac brand vacs, just buy some sheetrock filter bags to put over the inlet. The pleated filter is the last line of defense.

Can you lead me to the best place to buy them? Lowes? Home Depot? Their both close to me. And do I just ask for a "sheetrock filter bag"?

Thanks

I get them at the local True Value Hardware store. But Lowes (and most likely Home Depot) have them too. Look for your model's size - drywall dust collection filer bag.

Yup like Begreen said. The big box stores carry the drywall bags.
