Every aspect of a Miele vacuum cleaner is designed with your health in mind. For over 75 years, Miele's research, development and quality control laboratories
have tested methods to effectively pick up and, most importantly, retain dust and other indoor air pollutants. After collecting volumes of data, engineers and
designers continue to reach the firm conclusion that Miele's system is the most effective and hygienic method of removing particulate matter from the home.
Miele sealed system HEPA vacuum cleaners capture 99.99% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns. No other vacuum cleaner comes close to this standard of
filtration. The sealed system engineering prevents air from leaking out and ensures that all impurities are trapped in the HEPA filter. |

Miele's other type of filter, the electrostatically charged Super Air Clean filter, traps 99.95% of particles down to 0.5 microns and 94% of particles down to 0.3 microns. If your vacuum cleaner does not have a quality air filter, then you are simply stirring up allergens every time you vacuum.
Even the hygienic dust bags are designed with your allergies in mind. The tear-proof bags seal themselves upon removal so that you're never exposed to allergens, and they're coated with a special material that virtually eliminates clogging and prevents puncturing from sharp objects.
In 1998, the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute compared Miele's performance to that of nine other leading vacuum cleaners.
The study, which was published in the Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association, found that a Miele sealed system HEPA vacuum cleaner
captures hundreds to thousands times more microscopic particles than its leading competitors. Miele's introduction of the HyClean bag only furthers their
commitment to hygienic, self-sealing dust bags.
The Miele S5 Galaxy series vacuums - including the Miele
Capricorn, Miele Earth, Miele
Callisto & Miele Pisces - have been awarded "excellent air quality" certification from the independent
DMT Air Quality Testing Institute. These flagship models provide maximum protection for indoor air quality.
