Thanks for sharing your air filter setup. How large is the space you’re filtering with your setup and how many months do the Terrabloom filters last before you have to change them? Also where’s the HEPA component of the system? (Agree about Miele vacuums with a HEPA filter insert, which is supposed to be changed annually. Mieles also last forever with minor maintenance).


700 sq. Ft. So far 9 months with the terrabloom and no noticeable degradation of filtration. HEPA provided by 7 other filters, mostly Coways. Those need filters changed every 2 months.

Agree with Miele ease of maintenance, though they immediately stopped providing OEM parts (belts) for the uprights the day they discontinued them. They still sell the expensive bags for them though.
