Cleaning the HEPA Pre-Motor Filter Important, Please Note: The HEPA pre-motor filter will stop most of the tiniest dust particles and airborne allergens from re-entering the air you breathe. In fact it stops 99.97% of all particles as small as

0.3 microns - many times smaller than a

human hair!

Because of this incredible filtration

performance, the HEPA pre-motor filter

will accumulate many fine dust particles
