Abstract: A baghouse chamber divided into an inlet for receiving a gas stream containing particulates, an outlet for exiting said gas stream after filtering, a main chamber and an auxiliary chamber. At least one filter bag is housed within the main chamber for filtering said gas stream. The filter bag has an extension portion extending through a connection into the baghouse chamber. The connection prevents particulate from bypassing the outlet of the baghouse chamber and allows for pulling a replacement filter bag attached to the extension portion into the main chamber. A removal means is attached to the baghouse for transporting the at least one operable filter bag to the auxiliary chamber and for pulling the replacement filter bag into the main chamber.
