Overview

The RICCAR HEPA Type H Bag is a high‐efficiency filtration bag designed for use in Riccar canister vacuum cleaners. Engineered to trap fine dust, allergens, and microscopic particles, these bags help maintain suction performance while protecting both air quality and the motor by preventing dust re‐entry. Perfect for homes with allergy sufferers, pets, or those who demand extra cleanliness.


Key Features

Feature Description
True HEPA Filtration Material Captures at least 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns.
Type H Fit Specifically made to fit Riccar canister models that use Type H bags—ensures perfect fit, no leakage.
Multi‐Layer Construction Inner and outer layers to trap large debris, fine dust, and allergens in distinct strata, maximizing capacity and flow.
High Capacity Designed to hold more dust so you change less often, maintaining performance over long usage.
Secure Sealing Collar Prevents dust from escaping when removing or replacing the bag.
Durable Material Resists tearing, moisture, and collapse under heavy airflow.

What Makes the Model Stand Out

  • Brand pedigree: Riccar is known for premium vacuum cleaners, and its genuine HEPA Type H bags are built to the same standards.

  • Filtration integrity: Because the material is true HEPA and Riccar OZ‐approved, users get better air quality than generic bags.

  • Optimized airflow: The bag’s design balances filtration with airflow so that motor stress is minimized, and vacuum performance is maintained.

  • Allergy‐friendly: Excellent for people with asthma, allergies, or pet dander issues—these bags can make a noticeable difference in indoor air.

Comparison Table

Here’s a side‑by‑side comparison between Riccar HEPA Type H Bags and other alternatives:

Feature Riccar HEPA Type H Bags Aftermarket Generic “HEPA” Bags Cloth / Reusable Bags
Filtration Efficiency True HEPA, ≈ 99.97% @ 0.3µm Varies; often < HEPA, many “HEPA‐like” only Usually poor for fine particles
Fit and Seal Precise fit with Riccar Type H; minimal leakage Sometimes loose, risk leaks May have gaps; risk of dust escape
Capacity Generous; designed for full load Variable; often smaller or less well constructed Often lower capacity; risk of tearing
Cost Over Time Higher per unit; better performance long term Lower upfront; may need more frequent replacement Lowest ongoing cost; but compromises in performance
Health / Allergens Excellent protection for allergies/asthma Some protection—but depends on quality Minimal protection against fine irritants
Longevity / Vacuum Motor Health Helps preserve motor by preventing clogging Variable; lower quality may stress motor Risk of damage if particles bypass filter

Pros and Cons
