Hospital healthcare HVAC air filtration South Africa

Air Filters for Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities in South Africa

Hospitals are not standard commercial buildings when it comes to air filtration. Different areas of a hospital need different filter grades — general wards, ICU, operating theatres, and pharmacy compounding suites all have their own requirements. Getting the wrong grade in the wrong area is a compliance issue. Prebur supplies filters for healthcare facilities: G4 pre-filters for general ventilation, F9 for ward and high-dependency areas, and H14 HEPA for operating theatres. Each HEPA filter comes with its own individual test certificate.

What Each Hospital Area Needs

General wards and corridors — G4 pre-filtration and F9 secondary. Standard filtration for general patient areas to reduce airborne infection risk.

High-dependency wards and ICU — G4 pre-filtration and F9 secondary. Higher-grade filtration for areas with vulnerable patients.

Operating theatres — G4 + F9 + H14 HEPA terminal filtration. The HEPA filter is the final stage and each unit comes with its own test certificate for theatre commissioning.

Isolation rooms — HEPA filtration on the exhaust air path to prevent contaminated air from reaching other parts of the building.

Pharmacy compounding suites — F9 secondary. H14 HEPA for sterile compounding areas.

Why Healthcare FM Teams Work with Prebur

Individual HEPA test certificates. Each H14 unit has its own serial-numbered certificate — specific to that filter, not a batch result. This is what your commissioning team will ask for when signing off a theatre.

37 years in the industry. We have been supplying hospitals and healthcare FM contractors across South Africa since 1988.
