Choosing the right Shadow gutter vacuum spare
This collection brings together replacement parts for the Shadow gutter vacuum, including filters, motor and electrical parts, head components, inlet parts, float-valve components, seals and other service items. Some parts are specific to the Shadow, while others are deliberately shared with compatible Predator, Panther or GVS machines.
Check the machine and part before ordering
Start by confirming that you have a Shadow gutter vacuum and identify the component you need to replace. Shared parts will list the compatible machine families on the individual product page. Do not assume that a part is interchangeable simply because it looks similar to the original.
Shadow filters and cages
Several filtration components are shared between the Shadow and Predator, including the compatible cloth filter and HEPA filter. The cloth filter is intended for Predator and Shadow machines only, while the HEPA filter is also specifically listed for these two machine families.
Follow the individual filter guidance carefully, particularly around wet or dry use, cleaning and drying before refitting.
Panther and Shadow 1700W motor
The current 1700W replacement motor is shared by Panther and Shadow machines. It is not intended for Predator or GVS models. Confirm the machine family and motor specification before ordering a replacement.
Motor replacement can affect warranty and electrical safety, so follow the product guidance and avoid carrying out work that could invalidate an applicable warranty.
Shared inlet and float-valve components
Selected Shadow inlet and float-valve parts are used across other GVS machines. The replacement inlet release lever is also compatible with Panther, GVS 3000 and GVS 3600 machines, while selected float-valve components are shared with Predator and Panther.
This shared compatibility is intentional. A product appearing in more than one machine-specific spares collection means the same replacement part fits each machine stated on the product page.
Shadow head and machine components
Shadow-specific replacement head components are available for repairing damaged machine-head parts without necessarily replacing the complete gutter vacuum. Other seals, fixings and service components may be shared with related machines, so check the individual listing before ordering.
Older and replacement Shadow parts
The Shadow range has changed over time and some replacement or clearance components may relate to an earlier machine version. If your original part differs from the current product images or you are working on an older Shadow, check the compatibility information carefully before ordering.
