Is this HEPA filter?

Not a HEPA, and a good thing too, since most(just about all) home furnace systems would find a HEPA filter much too air-flow restrictive! Even some filters less than HEPA can be too air-flow restrictive. Best to know what your furnace system can handle.

No,it isn't a HEPA filter & uses no activated charcoal.It is a finely constructed filter & is also electrostatic in operation.I'm not sure a HEPA filter is much more effective.

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.

The short answer is: YES--these are HEPA filters.HEPA definition: "To qualify as HEPA by US government standards, an air filter must remove (from the air that passes through) 99.97% of 0.3 µm particles." These filters are rated to remove particulate down to 0.3 micrometers at 99.97% efficiency (according to 3M's website). These cartridges qualify as HEPA filters.

Sure do Michael...the pre-filter is model HRF-B2 and the hepa filter is model HRF-H2

These are not true HEPA filters; they are HEPA-type filters. True HEPA filters are available at http://www.amazon.com/Holmes-HAPF30D-Replacement-HEPA-Filter/dp/B0045LQCIO.

The honeywell unit I have does not require a hepa filter replacement. It only needs to be vacuumed every six months.

I am not sure, it looks your model of the IQAir Cleaner uses a different version of the HEPA filter.I would suggest you contact a dealer to make sure before ordering

Yes it is, two tabs on the sides of the air inlet grill, push those in and it pops off. Vacuum the Pre filter before removing the inlet grill to remove the hepa filter... or do it outside.

No. The HEPA filter is a cylindrical core at the middle of the cyclone, which may be removed for washing.

Please pardon my ignorance but I'm not sure what "EF" means in reference to a Hepa filter. I can tell you that I cannot detect any dust escaping through this filter after several uses and that, for me, qualifies this filter as a resounding success.

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.

Yes, both. You can order replacement filters from Amazon or Honeywell that fit your model number. Some stores carry them too. HEPA lasts many years and pre-filters are usually changed twice a year depending on use.

I'm pretty sure the pre-filter and hepa filter are together. The pre-filter is at the front and the hepa is at the back.

the unit has air quality monitor, clean room mode, sensor for particle and dust. True HEPA filtration captures 99.97% of pollen, dust, pet dander, and smoke particles as small as 0.3 microns. *From the air that passes through the filter

It is a HEPA type filter, which is about as close to one as you'll get in a unit this size. I use it in my computer room and it filters allergens well for me. I have horrible allergies. Make sure you are using it in a small area (10x10 or so) for best results.
