Hoover Type Y Micro Lined Vacuum Bags - 10 Pack, DVC Replacement
If you run a Hoover WindTunnel or Tempo upright, the Type Y bag is the one part you will buy again and again, and the grade of bag you choose decides how much of the dust you pick up actually stays picked up. These are DVC micro-lined Type Y replacements, ten to a box, built with a two-ply media rated to capture 99.7 percent of particles down to 5 microns - the fine range where household allergens live.
Built for
- Hoover WindTunnel bagged upright vacuums
- Hoover Tempo and Tempo Widepath uprights
- Households with pets, dust sensitivity or seasonal allergies
- Offices and rentals running Hoover uprights daily
- Anyone replacing Hoover part 4010100Y or AH10040
Use cases
Holding onto allergens instead of recirculating them. The reason a room can smell dusty right after vacuuming is that a thin single-ply bag passes fine particles straight through and the exhaust puts them back into the air, now airborne and breathable. A two-ply micro-lined bag traps that fraction inside the bag. For anyone in the house reacting to dust mite debris, pet dander or pollen tracked in from outside, that difference is the whole point of the bag.
Keeping WindTunnel suction where it should be. WindTunnel uprights depend on unobstructed airflow to do what they are named for. A bag that surface-clogs chokes that airflow early, and the usual symptom is a machine that seems to have lost power when in fact the bag is blinded. Micro-lined media distributes loading through the depth of the bag, so airflow stays more consistent as it fills.
Buying by the box. Ten bags is roughly a year of typical household use, or a few months in a busy home with pets. Keeping a box on hand is what stops the common failure mode of running a bag far past full because there was no spare.

Frequently asked questions
Which Hoover models take a Type Y bag?
Type Y fits Hoover WindTunnel bagged uprights and Tempo and Tempo Widepath uprights, including the C1712900, C1705900, U5301900 and U5491900 series, UH30070 and UH30085, and Tempo U5140900B, UH30015 and UH30030HD. If your model is not listed, check the letter printed on the bag currently in the machine.
Will these fit a WindTunnel V2?
No. WindTunnel V2 uprights that convert from bagless to bagged use a different bag and are not compatible with Type Y.
What does micro lined mean compared with a standard paper bag?
A micro-lined bag adds a second, much finer inner ply behind the paper. That inner layer is what raises capture to 99.7 percent at 5 microns and keeps fine dust from passing through the bag wall into the exhaust air.
Are these genuine Hoover bags?
These are DVC replacement bags made to fit the Hoover Type Y specification. They are an aftermarket equivalent that cross-references Hoover part numbers 4010100Y and AH10040.
How often should the bag be changed?
Change it when it is about two thirds full or as soon as suction drops noticeably, whichever comes first. Running a bag until it is completely packed strains the motor and pushes fine dust past the media.
