Electrolux Filters

Electrolux residential MVHR units are among the most popular in the Baltic and Nordic countries, and our range covers the standard models from this manufacturer, including the EPVS-200 and EPVS-350 series. If the plate with the model name on the unit is hard to read or has come off, the most reliable way to find the right filter is to measure the old filter in millimetres (length, width, thickness) and compare it with the dimensions listed in our catalogue, rather than relying on the model number alone.

No – Electrolux is a large brand spanning many product categories, so filters for home MVHR (heat recovery ventilation) units are completely different from the filters used in other Electrolux products, such as:

• vacuum cleaners
• kitchen range hoods
• air purifiers

When looking for the right filter, go specifically by your MVHR unit's model (e.g. the EPVS series) rather than a generic Electrolux household appliance filter – they are not interchangeable in either size or mounting.

Electrolux MVHR units most commonly use an M5-class (coarser) filter together with an F7 or ISO ePM1-class (finer) filter. In urban conditions, or if there are people with allergies in the home, an F7-class supply filter is often chosen, as it retains pollen and fine dust better than a standard M5. Both classes fit the same filter holder slot, so switching from M5 to F7 requires no additional modifications.

The price of original Electrolux filters mostly reflects branded packaging and the distribution chain, rather than the filtration properties themselves. The compatible filters we offer are made to the same M5/F7 (ISO 16890) specification and to exactly the same dimensions, so filtration efficiency and airflow are no different from the original. The only real difference is price, which is usually noticeably lower when buying a compatible filter directly from the manufacturer without a brand markup.

Standard Electrolux MVHR filters are designed to capture particles (dust, pollen, fine solid particles), not to remove odours. For homes near busy traffic streets, or where strong kitchen or outdoor odours are noticeable, we offer an additional supply filter with an activated carbon layer – it is fitted as an extra stage alongside the regular M5/F7 filter, not as a replacement for it, so particle filtration remains unchanged.
