This is in contrast to the HEPA filter (Part #40521), which must never come into contact with water. Allow the pre-filter to dry fully before reinstalling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How often should the Excel 40532 be cleaned or replaced?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Inspect and clean the pre-filter whenever dryer performance diminishes. In environments with excessive lint, dust, or airborne particles, more frequent cleaning is recommended. The 40532 is designed to be reused rather than replaced on a fixed schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"W3TucRPBpqQA9ARvwg6ni-content\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Do not use with water that is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection either before or after the system.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"Hydrate Everyone, Everywhere!\"   BottleFillingStations.com | \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/bottlefillingstations.com\/pages\/contact-us\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eContact us\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Excel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43288524062783,"sku":"40532","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/0985\/files\/40532_img1.jpg?v=1779556246","url":"https:\/\/bottlefillingstations.com\/products\/excel-40532-thinair-electrostatic-hepa-pre-filter-replacement-metal-mesh","provider":"BottleFillingStations.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
