HEPA Filter - Replacement for Dyson Airblade AB02/04/06/14

HEPA Filter

Filter model number 965395-01. 

The latest Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers are fitted with a HEPA filter that traps 99.97% of particles, as small as 0.3 microns, from the air that passes through the filter when tested to ASTM F1977 HEPA by independent test house IBR.

A HEPA filter is very effective at removing airborne particles from the air. To meet the US HEPA standard, filters are required to remove 99.97% of particles from the air, of which any particle size could be as small as 0.3 microns.

This ensures that users are drying their hands with clean air. Filters that don’t meet these stringent standards are potentially less effective at removing bacteria from the air.

How to replace the Dyson Airblade Tap HEPA filter:

First use the tamper proof wrench to open the cover.  You will note that the dryer comes off the wall with the cover.  There are two filters, a left and a right.  Unclip the used filters one at a time and clip the new ones in their place.  Close the cover.  It's that simple!

Dyson recommends changing the filter about every year or so, but depending on the environment, they can last up to two years (or less than a year if you have a lot of airborn dust or particulate matter.  As a rule, when you notice that the dryer is not delivering as much air, it's time to change the filter.
