Overview
The Festool 578357 DH-SYS-AIR Ceiling Bracket is a ceiling bracket accessory for the Festool SYS-AIR air purifier. This is a ceiling bracket designed for stationary overhead mounting of the air filter in a workshop. Model Number 578357. If you want to keep the purifier working in the shop without taking up floor space, this bracket is the piece that makes that setup possible.
What matters here is not just that it hangs the unit overhead, but that it does it in a way that still keeps the purifier practical to live with day to day. Festool designed the system so the air purifier can be mounted securely using a base plate and threaded rods, while still remaining accessible for routine use. That means you can keep the machine out of the way above the work area instead of parking it where it competes with carts, benches, and material.
The big advantage over a makeshift overhead mount is serviceability. Festool specifically calls out that the preliminary and main filters can be replaced without removing the air purifier from the bracket. In a real shop, that matters. If a ceiling-mounted system becomes a hassle every time maintenance comes up, people put it off. This design keeps filter changes straightforward, so the setup stays useful instead of becoming something you avoid touching.
The T-LOC connection is another practical part of the design. It gives you a secure hold for stationary use, but it also lets you unlock and remove the unit quickly if you want to take the SYS-AIR down for mobile use. That gives the setup more flexibility than a fixed bracket that turns the purifier into a permanent installation. If your workflow shifts between workshop use and transport, that is a real advantage.
Festool also built this bracket for more than one mounting surface. It supports installation on different ceiling materials, including wood and concrete. That broader mounting compatibility makes it a better fit for mixed shop environments, whether you are outfitting a finished woodworking space or a more utilitarian commercial work area.
For jobsite practicality inside a shop, the included long power cord is worth noting. With more than 24.6 ft (7.5 m) of cord length, you have more flexibility when routing power to the mounted air purifier. That helps when the ideal ceiling location is not directly beside an outlet.
This accessory is for users who already run the Festool SYS-AIR and want a cleaner, more permanent workshop setup. It makes the most sense for cabinet shops, trim carpenters, remodelers, and serious DIY users working in dedicated shop space where floor area is worth protecting. If your goal is a neat, overhead air filtration setup that still stays easy to remove and easy to maintain, this bracket is built exactly for that job.
Free Up Floor Space in the Shop
Mounting the SYS-AIR overhead keeps the purifier working where you need it without taking up room on the floor or bench space in the workshop.
- Designed for stationary overhead use in the workshop
- Base plate and threaded rod mounting keeps the unit secure and out of the way
Remove the Unit Without Fighting the Mount
The bracket is made for secure overhead mounting, but Festool did not turn it into a permanent headache. The T-LOC closure lets you detach the purifier quickly when you need to move it.
- T-LOC closure balances secure hold with quick release
- Useful for shops that alternate between fixed workshop use and mobile use
Keep Filter Changes Simple
A ceiling mount only makes sense if routine maintenance stays easy. Festool built this one so the preliminary and main filters remain accessible while the purifier is mounted.
- Filter replacement does not require taking the air purifier down
- Rigid threaded rod layout helps maintain access around the mounted unit

Pro Tip
If you are setting up the SYS-AIR for full-time shop use, mount it where you can still reach the filter access points comfortably from a step stool. That way you keep the floor clear without turning routine filter changes into a chore.
