Features & Specifications

• Clean Air Bypass Motor: Protects internal components by pulling filtered air through the system while generating continuous suction for deep carpet cleaning.
• HEPA & Charcoal Filtration: Combines a self-sealing HEPA media bag, HEPA media post-filter, and granulated charcoal filter to capture 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns alongside household odors.  
• Dirt Sensor Technology: Built-in amber lights illuminate when hidden dirt is detected in carpet fibers and turn off when the area is clean.  
• 360-Degree Maneuverability: Front caster wheels provide smooth 360-degree rotation, while rubber wheels protect hard surfaces.  
• Metal Components & Lifetime Belt: Built with a durable metal brushroll with replaceable brushstrips, a metal wand, and belt protection that stops the brushroll during jams to prevent belt failure.  
• Squeegee Bare Floor Cleaning: An integrated squeegee pulls fine debris from hard surface floors without scattering particles.  
• Smart Indicator Lights: Features a full bag indicator to eliminate guesswork and bright LED headlights for low-clearance areas.

Usage & Surface Guide

• Hardwood, Tile & Bare Floors: Step on the carpet/floor selector button to stop brushroll agitation and engage the floor squeegee for hard surfaces.  
• Low-Clearance Cleaning: Press the handle pedal twice to lower the main body completely flat, allowing full access beneath beds, couches, and furniture.  
• Above-Floor & Tool Reach: Pull out the telescopic wand and stretch the hose for up to 15 feet of cleaning reach. The hose mounts low on the body to maintain stability and prevent tip-overs.  
• Upholstery & Stair Care: Attach the self-cleaning Fur Get It pet tool to lift embedded hair and dander from fabric, carpeted steps, and vehicle interiors.

Maintenance & Care Notes

• Bag Replacement: Change the top-loading HEPA bag when the full bag light illuminates to maintain maximum airflow and suction power. 
• Filter Schedule: Replace the HEPA exhaust filter and granulated charcoal filter regularly to protect motor life and control odor retention.  
• Brushstrip Service: Inspect metal brushroll bristles periodically; individual brushstrips can be replaced as they wear over time. 

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the Fur Get It pet tool clean pet hair?

The Fur Get It tool uses a patented felt cylinder and rubber squeegee action to pull embedded pet hair from furniture, stairs, and fabrics into the airflow without winding hair around the tool head.

2. Does the Riccar R25P require manual height adjustments for different carpets?

No, the R25P features a floating nozzle that automatically adjusts to carpet height variations, transitioning smoothly from low-pile rugs to high-pile carpet.

3. What bags and filters fit the R25 Premium Pet model?

The R25P uses Riccar R25 series self-sealing HEPA media bags (model R25H-6 or charcoal-lined R25HC-6) along with the RF27 HEPA and granulated charcoal filter set. 

4. How does lifetime belt protection work?

If a rug fringe or object jams the brushroll, an internal sensor stops the motor from turning the brushroll until the obstruction is cleared, preventing motor strain and broken belts. 

5. Is this vacuum suitable for homes with sensitive allergy concerns?

Yes, the 100% sealed bag system pairs top-loading HEPA media filtration with a post-filter to isolate dust and allergens during use and bag disposal.
