Original Vallox Filter Set No. 27 (3356900) – 3‑Part Set
The original Vallox filter solution for these units is Filter Set No. 27 (product number 3356900).

For improved indoor comfort, you can add a carbon filter set to your Vallox 096 unit. Activated carbon filters:
- Reduce unpleasant odors (kitchen smells, smoke, pets, chemicals)
- Help lower the concentration of VOCs (volatile organic compounds)
- Are especially useful in urban locations, near busy roads or industrial areas
Carbon filters are an ideal addition for allergy and asthma sufferers, sensitive individuals and anyone who wants the highest indoor air quality from their Vallox 096 system.
How Often Should Vallox 096 Filters Be Replaced?
Replacement intervals depend on air quality and usage, but general recommendations are:
- G4 coarse filters (supply prefilter and exhaust filter): every 3–6 months
- F7 fine filter: every 6–12 months
- Carbon filters: typically every 3–6 months, depending on odor load
In dusty environments, near heavy traffic or if there are pets or smokers in the home, filters may need to be replaced more often. Regular filter changes:
- Keep supply air clean and fresh
- Protect the heat exchanger and fans from dirt
- Maintain low energy consumption and high heat recovery efficiency
- Reduce wear on the ventilation unit and extend its lifetime

How to Replace Filters in Vallox 096 and ValloPlus 270 Units
Replacing filters in Vallox 096 MV, 096 SE, 096 MC and ValloPlus 270 units is quick and straightforward.
Follow these general steps:
-
Switch off the ventilation unit
Turn off the power to the Vallox unit using the main switch or circuit breaker.
This ensures safe work and prevents dust from being sucked in during replacement.
-
Open the front cover
Open or remove the front panel of the ventilation unit according to the manufacturer’s instructions to access the filter compartment.
-
Remove the used filters
Pull out the existing F7, G4 and, if installed, carbon filters from their slots.
Note the position and airflow direction arrows on the old filters for correct installation of the new ones.
-
Clean the filter space
Carefully wipe or vacuum loose dust from the filter housing, seals and surrounding area.
A clean filter space ensures a proper seal and prevents air bypass.
-
Insert the new Vallox 096 filters
Place the new original or compatible Filter Set No. 27 components into the corresponding slots:
– F7 / ePM1 50% fine filter on the supply‑air side
– G4 / Coarse 75% prefilter on the supply‑air side
– G4 / Coarse 75% filter on the exhaust‑air side
Make sure all filters sit straight, are fully inserted and aligned with the airflow direction indicated on the frame.
Install any carbon filters according to the product instructions.
-
Close the cover and switch the unit on
Close the front cover carefully, ensuring the seals fit correctly, then restore power to the unit.
Check that the ventilation system runs quietly and that no cover or filter warning is displayed.
By following these steps and using correctly configured three‑part Vallox 096 filter sets, you maintain optimal airflow,
protect the heat exchanger and fans from dust build‑up and keep the system operating efficiently throughout the year.
