* Breathe Easy, With a Little Help From Miele

For almost 80 years, our 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. Our exclusive combination of a Sealed System™, using the very best raw materials, electrostatically charged HyClean™ dust/filter bag and a selection of high-quality filter cartridges, including a certified HEPA filter, provide the essential formula for this success.

As a matter of fact, the S5 series has been awarded certification by the DMT Air Quality Testing Institute, an independent institute that monitors air hygiene. The S5 joins other Miele vacuums which were the world's first to receive this certificate with a top rating of excellent air quality. This certification refers to Miele's HEPA filter and the vacuum cleaner working together as a Sealed System™ to provide maximum protection for indoor air quality.

Please exercise caution when evaluating other vacuum filtration systems, as there are many gimmicks that do not work as effectively or scientifically. As this is an area where the results can be devastating to young or elderly lungs, or to anyone who suffers from allergies or asthma
