H13 HEPA filter, independently tested to EN 1822: 99.97% capture
“HEPA filter.” “99% of allergens.” Such terms are found on almost every mattress vacuum cleaner, and they are rarely independently verified. We therefore had the filter medium of this filter tested by an accredited laboratory according to the European standard EN 1822. Below is precisely what was measured, by whom, and what the result is.

What exactly was measured
EN 1822 tests a filter not for large, easily captured particles, but for the most difficult to capture particle — known in the professional world as MPPS (Most Penetrating Particle Size), around 0.10–0.25 µm. Particles of that size slip through a filter most easily. If a filter performs well there, it performs well everywhere.
| Particle Size | Measured catch | Requirements class H13 |
|---|---|---|
| 0.10–0.25 µm (MPPS) | 99.97% | ≥ 99.95% |
| Larger fragments | up to 99.98% | — |
Values as specified in test report 0169-22A-02. The complete overview is available in the PDF.
What the test does and doesn't say
Transparency is key. This test concerns the filter medium — the material the filter is made of — tested as a flat sheet according to EN 1822 and EN ISO 29463-3. The 99.97% is therefore the efficiency of the filter material itself: it indicates how well the filter captures particles that reach it.
What a filter cannot do is capture particles that never reach it. That's why the rest of the design is just as important: the vibrating plate loosens mites and allergens from the fibres, the suction power removes them, and only then does the H13 filter capture them instead of blowing them back into the room. A filter is one link, not the entire solution.
Based on this test, we do not claim any medical or health effects. What we can show, however, is what was measured, by whom, and according to which standard.
Frequently asked questions
How can I be sure that 99.97% is correct?
The filter medium has been tested by an independent, accredited laboratory according to EN 1822, documented in test report 0169-22A-02. The certification overview with the test institute, the standard, and the measured values can be downloaded above.
What exactly does class H13 mean?
H13 is a HEPA class under EN 1822. An H13 filter must capture at least 99.95% of particles at the Most Penetrating Particle Size (MPPS, around 0.10–0.25 µm). Our filter medium achieved 99.97%.
How often should I replace the filter?
Rinse the filter monthly under the tap and let it dry completely. Replace it every six months—a saturated filter reduces suction and filtration.
Does this filter fit every MiteMaster®?
No, each model has its own filter. Check if you have an MX6 or an MX9 Pro and order the corresponding filter.
How quickly will my order be delivered?
Ordered before 4 PM, shipped the same day. Free shipping on orders over €50.
Can I return the product?
Yes, 30-day free returns. Not satisfied? You'll get a full refund.
Can I pay afterwards?
Yes, with Klarna you pay afterwards. We also accept iDEAL, Visa, Mastercard and Amex.
