Miele S500 Vacuum Cleaner Series - The World's First Ever HEPA-Certified Canister Vacuums

With the Miele S500 Vacuum Cleaner Series, Miele’s legacy as a world leader in vacuum cleaner design and engineering continues. These vacuums offer great versatility and value for the price.

Perhaps most impressively, the S500 (and S600) series represent the world’s first ever HEPA-certified vacuum cleaners. Installing the optional certified HEPA filter is important, because it is rated to retain 99.9% of all lung-damaging particles 0.3 microns and larger. However, that is only half of the picture.

This "full picture" would include a HEPA filter installed in a sealed environment, one that does not leak air prior to being filtered.

Miele S500 series canister vacuums deliver on both counts. People especially concerned with indoor-air quality will be pleased to know that the S500 / S600 series was tested against one of the world’s most stringent filtration standards, EN 1822.

The results: virtually all particulate matter was contained within these vacuums, earning the S500 / S600 series the world’s first certificate of HEPA certification. It’s like having a HEPA air purifier on wheels!

Included with All Miele S500 Vacuum Cleaners
	Sealed System Air enters through the floor nozzle and travels up the hose to the bag. Air emitted from the bag moves through the filter and into the sealed motor chamber. Air moves through the motor chamber toward the post-motor filter. Air exits through the post-motor HEPA filter which traps fine particles. Air released from the Miele is almost totally free of particles 0.3 microns and larger. The bag and motor compartments are completely sealed by one continuous rubber gasket. Miele’s unique rib system helps maintain powerful flow as air moves through the vacuum cleaner, even as the dustbag fills.
	Integrated Tools These vacuum cleaners come standard with three cleaning tools. Useful for cleaning upholstery, shelves, baseboards, and more, all are conveniently stored on-board, just a hands-reach away under the lid. Dusting Brush Upholstery Brush Crevice Tool
	Crush-proof Hose The new, non-electric hoses for this series are wider, increasing airflow, and are ergonomically designed for maximum comfort and regardless of the abuse, will always retain their original shape.
	HyClean Dustbags Miele’s revolutionary and patented dustbag is an important component of the vacuum cleaners filtration system. Their unique HyClean™ bag is 9-layers of electrostatically charged material that traps micro-sized debris in the airtight vacuum chamber.
