Miele SF-AA 30-1 Active AirClean Filter 12718090

The SF-AA 30-1 Active AirClean Filter (part# 12718090) is the genuine Miele odor-control exhaust filter for Classic C1, Complete C1 and Dynamic U1 vacuums — the replacement filter for the Classic C1 Cat & Dog.

What the SF-AA 30-1 Active AirClean Filter Does

Miele recommends it for households with pets or smokers: an activated charcoal layer neutralizes pet, smoke and cooking odors while the filter media traps fine dust before air exits the back of the canister. It ships on the Classic C1 Cat & Dog and can replace the Super AirClean filter on the Classic C1 Pure Suction or Turbo Team for owners who would rather have odor control. It is not HEPA rated; Classic C1 owners who need allergen filtration should use the SF-HA 30-1.

When to Replace the SF-AA 30-1 Active AirClean Filter

Plan on a new filter about once a year — sooner in homes with several pets. When pet smell returns during vacuuming, the charcoal is spent. There is no TimeStrip on this version, so write the install date on the filter frame.

The Classic C1 takes the SF-AA 30; the Guard and Complete C2/C3 canisters take the SF-AA 50. The two sizes are not interchangeable.
