I am not seeing anything about a HEPA filter. Does it have one?

There is no HEPA filter. There is a dust filter but it does not qualify as HEPA.

Well it's more like you can blow the filter out with compressed air or vaccum them out. There is two of them. As far as that non removable Hepa filter, there is a Hepa button, but I havent taken it apart to check it out . Hope this helps

Yes - the HEPA filter comes with the vacuum. It is a very fine filter; one of my relatives vacuumed out a huge quantity of fireplace ashes with it, which clogged the filter. Rather than buying a new one, I used compressed air outside the house to blow out the extremely fine dust. It works like a dream again. It only clogged once in 2 years, so it doesn't need replacement very often.

No. The instruction manual that comes with this vacuum is excellent. I suggest you read it because it explains how to charge it, how to clean it and how to clean the Hepa filter.

The Hepa filter is a separate part from the dust bag. The link below will show you what one looks like. This may or may not be the correct Hepa filter for your model vacuum cleaner. There are two filters that come in the box with the dust bags. One is a motor filter to keep dust from getting into the motor and damaging it. The other filter is a clean air filter that goes in the same compartment as a Hepa filter. You use either the thin clean air filter or the Hepa filter, but not both at the same time. It's one or the other. The clean air filter comes free with the dust bags. If you want a Hepa filter you have to purchase it separately and put it in the compartment that you will remove the thin clean air filter from. I believe you have to remove the plastic grill that holds the clean air filter in place before you snap in a Hepa filter which doesn't need anything to hold it in place because it is substantially thicker than a clean air filter. http://www.amazon.com/MIELE-4854915-Replacement-HEPA-Filter/dp/B0007UPZZ8/ref=sr_1_3?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1388168102&sr=1-3&keywords=miele+hepa+filter

they are all the same, there is no permament HEPA FILTER, its just the brand name for marketing reasons, N HD S version are the same, and use the same filter, they are just version for diferent vendor, like home depot or amazon, so not even the N version is permament , the illusion of a permanent filter is good for sales, but amazon decided to changed that brand name for "long lasting vacunable filter"

No I don't think it's a hepa filter, but the reviews of this purifier are very good. I'm on my third, as it doesn't seem to really be effective after 6 months. However, I am very allergic to book dust and mold, and this filter has been very, very good at taking away dust and spores. Unfortunately, I have to use a lot of books at work, and this machine is really helpful.

Yes it comes with everything, just remember to take off the plastic on all of the filters. I honestly LOVE the heck out of this thing, I keep it on every night and breathe great in the morning. Remember to clean the pre-filter every few weeks since it's simple and increases the life of the HEPA filters. Also, the black filter seems to leave residue on the HEPA filter, I recommend taking it off (unless you are using this for filtering smells, since that's what the black filter is for).

The carbon pre-filter and a Hepafilter come with the purifier. When I run the machine at high speed 24/7, I vacuum the carbon filter once a week, the hepa filter has stayed clean and I've never vacuumed or replaced it

It is not. HEPA filters are required to filter out 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns. This one can filter out 94% per Filtrete.

It is the same vacuum with an added "hepa" filter that clips onto the unit's exhaust. I tested my unit, with and without the filter, and found the filter definitely reduced the micro-particulates from the exhaust. I don't and wouldn't use the vacuum without the filter.

I think the Hepa filter is not discontinued, Amazon is still selling the Dirt Devil model SD40100. I suggest you go to their website www.dirt devil.com to get your answer. I just cleaned my Hepa Filter and There's no Part number in it.

Yes, one pre-filter and the HEPA filter. You will want to buy some pre-filters with your order. When your machine shows it needs changing you can either vacuum it or change it out. I have an older machine and have yet to need to change the HEPA filter.

When it worked, it moved a decent amount of air, however, it stopped working after only 1 month. As for the HEPA filter, it does have filters, I could not attest to if they are true HEPA filters though.
