HEATPEX filters
Filters for Heatpex ARIA VITALE Ventilation Units
In this category you will find compatible replacement filters (replacements), not original Heatpex filters for Heatpex ARIA VITALE heat recovery and ventilation units of the following models: PLATINUM 300/450/600, SILVER 300/450/600, GOLD 300/450/600, as well as compact units ARIA VITALE COMPACT MVHR 250 m³/h and ARIA VITALE COMPACT MVHR 350 m³/h. The dimensions and characteristics of these filters are selected to ensure correct installation and efficient air filtration when replacing the original filters.
Filter Sets ePM1 (F7) + ePM10 (M5)
The standard filter sets ePM1 (F7) + ePM10 (M5) are designed for fine and pre-filtration of supply air and exhaust air. The ePM1 (F7) fine filter effectively captures fine dust, allergens and small particles, while ePM10 (M5) provides reliable protection against coarse dust and contaminants, extending the service life of the heat recovery unit and internal components of the ventilation system. This is the optimal choice for everyday operation of ARIA VITALE units in most residential and office applications.
Carbon Filters for VOC and Odor Reduction
For rooms with higher air quality requirements we offer carbon filter sets for VOC and odor reduction — ePM1 carbon + ePM10 sets. The carbon layer in the ePM1 filter effectively neutralizes odors and harmful gaseous pollutants, while the ePM10 filter serves as a pre-filter, removing coarse particles and protecting the carbon layer. These sets are especially suitable for city apartments and offices located near busy roads or industrial areas.
Choose and order compatible replacement filter sets for your Heatpex ARIA VITALE unit to maintain stable performance of your ventilation system, clean indoor air and the recommended service interval of the unit.
FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions about Heatpex ARIA VITALE Filters
Are these original Heatpex filters or alternatives?
This category contains non-original, compatible replacement filters (replacements) manufactured for full compatibility with Heatpex ARIA VITALE units. In terms of size and filtration class they meet the requirements of the equipment and allow you to safely replace original filters while maintaining high air filtration efficiency.
Which filters should I choose for my ARIA VITALE unit?
For standard protection and regular use we recommend ePM1 (F7) + ePM10 (M5) sets. If you are concerned about exhaust fumes, city odors, smoke or industrial emissions, it is better to choose carbon sets ePM1 carbon + ePM10 for additional odor and VOC reduction. Always refer to your unit model and the filtration class requirements specified in the manufacturer’s manual.
Will these replacement filters fit my ARIA VITALE model?
The filters in this category are compatible with ARIA VITALE PLATINUM 300/450/600, SILVER 300/450/600, GOLD 300/450/600, as well as ARIA VITALE COMPACT MVHR 250 m³/h and ARIA VITALE COMPACT MVHR 350 m³/h. Before ordering, always check the exact model name on the unit’s nameplate and compare the filter size/type with the information given in the product description.
What is the difference between ePM1 (F7) and ePM10 (M5) filters?
ePM1 (F7) is a fine filter that captures fine particulate matter, allergens, spores and particles down to 1 μm, which is crucial for high-quality supply air. ePM10 (M5) is a pre-filter that traps larger dust particles, fluff, insects, etc., protecting both the heat exchanger and the fine ePM1 filter and extending its service life.
When should I choose carbon filters (carbon filter sets)?
Carbon sets ePM1 carbon + ePM10 are recommended if:
- your windows face a busy road or parking area;
- there are restaurants, cafés, industrial sites or other odor sources nearby;
- you often notice unwanted odors when the ventilation is running;
- there are increased comfort and air quality requirements (offices, bedrooms, children’s rooms).
In other cases standard ePM1 + ePM10 sets are usually sufficient.
How often should I replace the filters in Heatpex ARIA VITALE units?
A typical replacement interval is every 3–6 months. In dusty or polluted areas, in homes with pets or when the unit runs 24/7, filters should be checked and replaced more frequently. Carbon filters usually require more frequent replacement as the adsorption capacity of the carbon layer is gradually depleted.
Can I wash or vacuum-clean these replacement filters?
ePM1, ePM10 and carbon filters are disposable and are not designed to be washed with water or cleaned with a vacuum. Washing and blowing damages the filter media and reduces filtration efficiency. We recommend performing a complete replacement with a new filter set at the appropriate interval.
Can I combine standard and carbon filter sets?
Yes, you can, for example, use a standard ePM1 (F7) + ePM10 (M5) set on the exhaust air and a carbon ePM1 carbon + ePM10 set on the supply air if you want maximum filtration of the fresh air. The main thing is to follow the recommended sizes and filter positions according to the installation manual.
Do higher-grade filters affect the unit performance?
Higher-grade filters (e.g. ePM1 with carbon) create slightly higher air resistance, so with heavily clogged filters the airflow may decrease. To avoid reduced performance and increased noise, it is important to replace filters on time and not exceed the recommended service life.
