1. What is HEPA filter? HEPA(High efficiency particulate air Filter),filters that meet HEPA standards have an efficiency of 99.7% for 0.1 micron and 0.3 micron, and the characteristics of HEPA nets are that air can pass through, but fine particles cannot pass through. It can remove more than 99.97% of particles with a diameter of 0.3 micron (1/200 of the diameter of a hair), and is the most effective filtration medium for pollutants such as smoke, dust and bacteria.
