This design utilizes a Hepa Filter commonly used in many Vacuum Cleaners like the Philips FC9218 or Electrolux/AEG units. A link to this filter is available at https://dein-ersatzteil.de/p/abluftfilterkassette-wie-electrolux-9001677682-efs1w-lamellenfilter-fuer-staubsauger-8576441460. According to the manufacturer, these filters are full Hepa Filters with superior filtration capabilities compared to a standard N95 Mask. Additionally, their large size allows for easy airflow. However, users should exercise caution and carefully review the DISCLAIMER before use. To assemble this design, a 20mm Vacuum cleaner pipe is required. A length of 50cm to 1m works well. Strong glue should be used to connect the pipe securely. The adapter was designed based on a model available at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4253497.

If respiratory issues occur, discontinue use immediately. This design has not been certified by any regulatory agency and is intended for personal use only. It does not provide adequate protection against the spread of viruses. Additional isolation measures may be necessary to ensure a proper seal around the face. The mask was designed primarily for snorkeling purposes and is not suitable for protecting against viruses. It falls under PPE category I for eye protection, but not as a respirator or medical device. As a non-medical entity, we cannot guarantee factual protection against the virus. Furthermore, it's essential to note that this mask was not developed for dry skin sealing and may not provide an adequate seal in such cases. Additionally, CO2 levels inside the mask can increase with prolonged use, especially during stressful or tense situations.
