I don't know, but the filtration media that goes into consumer products that filter dust from indoor air last about 5 years before they need to be replaced. Many of those products use HEPA filters, which get all of the dust out of the air that passes through them, and even those last 5 years.
- wkat4242 3y agoI have once serviced a PC that had been running for about 9 years as a fax receiver. The inside was literally like a block of dust. Every available space had dust in it with the consistency of a pillow. I serviced it because the PC refused to boot :') Once I removed all the dust and reseated all the boards it worked fine for several more years :)
