Know before you buy
No, this specific RF5DG filter set is engineered exclusively for the Riccar Retriever model BRLD.RETRIEVER. It is not compatible with other Riccar vacuum series.
The granulated charcoal filter is specifically designed to neutralize and trap pet odors as you vacuum. It helps keep your home smelling fresh by preventing pet-related smells from recirculating through the exhaust.
The set provides a comprehensive filtration system: the electrostatic/foam filter protects the motor from dust buildup, the charcoal filter tackles odors, and the direct air motor filter cleans the air before it is exhausted back into your room.
While replacement frequency depends on your usage and the number of pets in your home, it is generally recommended to replace the full set whenever you notice a decrease in suction or an increase in exhaust odors. Regularly checking the filters for heavy dust accumulation is the best way to determine if they need to be swapped out.
These filters are designed for replacement rather than cleaning. Washing them can degrade the charcoal and electrostatic materials, which will significantly reduce their ability to capture odors and fine dust.
