Salda Smarty 2R V plus filters

We stock filters for Salda's widely installed residential lines:

• RIRS series (EKO 3.0)
• RIS series
• Smarty series (2X, 3X, 4X and 2R)

They are common across Lithuania and the neighbouring Baltic and Nordic markets. The series and airflow size are printed on the unit's label.

Most Salda RIS EKO 3.0 units use an M5 filter on the extract side and a fine F7 (ePM1) filter on the supply side, and for some sizes an M5+M5 set is available too. Older RIS models differ — the RIS 400 P1/P2 5.0 takes G4+G4 and the RIS 400 VED G4+M5 — so check your exact model before ordering.

No — RIS units come in multiple airflow capacities within the same series, and filter housing size scales with unit capacity. Always confirm your exact RIS model number or measure the filter directly rather than assuming size compatibility across the range.

No. RIS and RIRS EKO 3.0 units mostly use M5 extract and F7 supply filters, while Smarty 2X, 3X and 4X units use a G4 extract filter with either a G4 or an F7 supply filter. The Smarty 2R takes M5 filters. Filter sizes also differ between the ranges, so always match by series and model.

The filter alarm on Salda units is a reminder that the service interval has passed. Replace both filters first, then reset the filter timer from the controller — the exact menu depends on your controller type, so follow the unit's manual. Resetting the alarm without changing the filters only hides the reminder while airflow keeps dropping.

This is one of the most common complaints in renovated Belgian terraced houses, where the unit usually ends up in an attic, a crawl space or a fitted cupboard with very little clearance around it — and awkward access is the single biggest reason filter changes get postponed. Two practical points. Before ordering, check that you can actually withdraw a filter fully in the space available, particularly if you are considering a deeper filter than the original. And keep the spare set stored next to the unit rather than elsewhere in the house, so the job is not held up by a trip to the cellar. Since both filters are meant to be changed together anyway, one visit up the ladder covers it.
