If you wake up stuffy or find your allergies flare up at home, the air might be carrying more than just moisture. Pollen, pet dander, dust mites and mould spores circulate constantly, especially when you are trying to dry out a damp room. This pack of filters adds air cleaning to your existing dehumidifier, trapping the particles that trigger sneezing and irritation.
How it helps
These are True HEPA filters that meet international standards for class E11. They capture 99.97% of particles sized 0.3µm or larger, including the microscopic allergens mentioned above. Unlike a standard dust filter, this denser mesh physically traps pollutants as air passes through your dehumidifier, so the air returned to your room carries fewer irritants.
Getting the best from it
- Fit these only alongside the standard dust filter, not as a replacement for it. The machine needs both to run properly.
- Watch for the colour change. When the filter shifts from white to grey or dark grey, it is time to fit a new one from this three-pack.
- Expect roughly three months of use before replacement, though this varies depending on how dusty your home is.
- Remember that using these reduces moisture removal by 9% and raises electricity use by 5%, so the trade-off is cleaner air for slightly slower drying.
Who it suits
This pack is strictly for owners of the Meaco 12L Platinum Low Energy dehumidifier. It will not fit Arete-1 or Arete-2 models, so check your machine before ordering. It suits households where someone suffers from reactions to mould, pollen, dust or pet dander, but it is not for those who need maximum dehumidification speed without any efficiency trade-off. Please note that you cannot return this item once the sealed bag is opened.
