Review: They filter stuff - Tried to write a review mitigating the previous review, as I got no prefilters or filters when first delivered, but a quick phone call and they were delivered quickly. Apparently I am not allowed to say the service was good as that is a different review, but yet the other review gets published. Filters are good 3M are worth trusting. Check the 3M website or call them to ensure you get the right filters for the hazard you are dealing with. Pre filter holders are a little fiddly to get off if you want to change the pre filters, but can be managed.
Review: Good ones! - Not too heavy, easy to take on and off, filters really well, pretty wide range of use

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do I know when to replace them?**
A: Something else you can take into account when to replace the filters - It should state in the leaflet that comes with the filter.
I purchased the 3M 6038's filter that should be effective against Covid-19 as the cheaper 6035's filter but also protects against other airborne pollution.
6038's leaflet and the 3M UK's expert told me that it should keep for 6 months when it is removed from its original packaging
 - should last 5 years from its manufacturer's date stated on the filter when still in its original packaging.

My 6502QL's half-face mask respirator came in a food freezer bag that seals.

It is best to keep the face mask with the filters enclosed in a sealed bag because it lasts longer.
Instead of filtering the air, for example,  in the entire room, it just filters the relatively small amounts of air in the sealed bag. - Therefore it lasts longer.

I shall have to find out when I fitted mine and tell my phone's calendar to notify me 6 months from the date when I fitted it.
I shall have to ask 3M UK if there is any method that the filter will give me when it becomes less effective against covid-19.

NB! never get the inside of the filter; wet or too dirty, damaged, inhaling (breathing in is effective because then it would be necessary to replace the filter.

It is why I'm glad that I am in the UK and not the USA because I can buy the 6035 or 6038 that are; rain-resistant, snow and weatherproof
compared to the filters that aren't water-resistant in the rain or snow etcetera - 6035 and 6038 should last much longer than 6 months

**Q: What kind of filters should i use because of smoke, burning woods and that kind of things?...**
A: See the 6000 series data sheet; a copy of which can be found here... https://www.protecdirect.co.uk/medias/sys_master/root/hc8/hcd/8810704142366/6000-series.pdf

**Q: Is this just a housing and you can swap the white filter material inside the box?  Can I put a P3 filter into this?**
A: In answer to your question these are complete filters not just the housing, so no need to change the filters. You can buy loose  filters but I chose to buy the complete Set filter with housing as opposed to just the filter. But you should not have a problem
In changing the filter/ the housings are the same.
I hope this helps

**Q: This filters offer p1 p2 or p3 protection?**
A: These offer P1 protection.

### ⭐ False advertising
*by J***M on 3 October 2024*

I ordered 2 PAIRS and received 2 filters... Also they were without their packaging. 3M recommends replacing the filters 6 months after they're exposed to the air. Who knows how long these have been sitting around. Or if they're USED?? they're meant to come in an airtight bag 🙂
