What this filter set protects against
The filter set includes 2 filters of different efficiency classes:
- Extract filter – M5 (ePM10 60%) – for MVHR protection
- Supply filter – F7 (ePM1 60%) – for indoor air protection
This filter set follows the ISO 16890 standard for particle filtration efficiency. The M5 filter captures around 60% of particles up to 10 microns in size, such as pollen, mould spores, pet dander, and house dust. It's designed to clean the air extracted from your indoor space, helping to reduce visible dust and general build-up in the ventilation system. This lowers energy consumption, keeps the unit quiet, and extends your system’s lifespan. The F7 filter captures around 60% of very fine particles as small as 1 micron, including bacteria, smog, tobacco smoke particles, combustion dust, spores, and wildfire smoke particles. It helps clean incoming outdoor air before it enters your home, improving indoor air quality and protecting your health.
Usage and maintenance
Systemair recommends replacing the filters every 3-6 months to ensure optimal air quality and system performance. However, replacement frequency may vary depending on factors such as:
- Air pollution levels (e.g. urban vs rural areas)
- Allergies or respiratory sensitivities
- Indoor pets or smoking
- Dust from nearby construction sites
If your system includes a filter change indicator, follow its alerts. Otherwise, check the filters visually – if they appear very dirty or clogged, it's time to replace them.
Manufacturing quality
This filter set is manufactured by Systemair, a global pioneer in ventilation technology based in Sweden. With over 40 years of experience and a strong focus on innovation, Systemair is renowned for producing reliable, high-performance indoor climate solutions. Both their ventilation units and original filters are developed and produced under strict European production standards, ensuring full compatibility, optimal performance, and low energy consumption. Each filter undergoes rigorous internal testing for airflow efficiency, dust-holding capacity, and long-term durability.
These filters are classified as bag filters, also known as pocket filters, due to their stitched, soft-pocket construction made from high-quality synthetic fibres. Each filter features a deep, flexible pocket that significantly increases the filtration surface area, increasing dust-holding capacity while maintaining a low pressure drop.
By choosing original Systemair filters, you ensure that your MVHR system operates in line with the manufacturer’s stated technical data, maintaining both optimal air quality and energy efficiency.
