Quick Summary

The Riccar RF9U-1 Premium Radiance HEPA Plus & Charcoal Filter Set is designed for the Riccar Premium Radiance RADP upright vacuum cleaner. This filter set includes a HEPA Plus media filter, a charcoal filter, and a direct-air motor filter to support fine-particle filtration, odor control, and motor protection.

Replacing filters when needed helps maintain the vacuum's intended filtration and airflow. Because RF9U-1 has been reported as discontinued by some retailers, check current availability before ordering. Do not automatically substitute another filter set without confirming compatibility.

Shop with Authorized Riccar Dealer Ace Vacuums for product guidance and assistance identifying the correct filter set for your Premium Radiance vacuum.

Compatible Models

  • Riccar Premium Radiance RADP — the specified model for the RF9U-1 filter set.

Important compatibility note: The RF9U-1 is intended for the Premium Radiance RADP, not every Riccar Radiance model. The standard Radiance RAD uses a different filter configuration, and the newer R40 Series requires its own filter set.

Riccar also lists RF9UG-1 for the Premium Radiance RADP. However, RF9UG-1 uses granulated charcoal, so verify the required filter configuration before choosing it as an alternative.

Key Features

  • Riccar Part Number: RF9U-1.

  • Designed for Premium Radiance: Fits the specified RADP model.

  • HEPA Plus Media Filter: Supports fine-particle filtration.

  • Charcoal Filter: Helps reduce household odors.

  • Direct-Air Motor Filter: Helps protect the motor from dust and debris.

  • Three-Filter Set: Includes one HEPA Plus filter, one charcoal filter, and one direct-air motor filter.

  • Routine Maintenance: Filter replacement helps maintain the vacuum's intended filtration pathway.

  • Dealer Assistance: Authorized Riccar Dealer Ace Vacuums can help verify model compatibility and current availability.

Why Genuine OEM Parts Matter

Genuine Riccar OEM parts are designed for the models and configurations specified by the manufacturer. Selecting the correct filter set helps maintain proper fit and supports the vacuum's intended filtration system.

The RF9U-1 combines HEPA Plus media, charcoal filtration, and a direct-air motor filter. Each component serves a different purpose: the HEPA Plus filter supports fine-particle filtration, the charcoal filter helps reduce odors, and the motor filter helps protect internal components from dust and debris.

Filter sets that look similar may use different media or fit different Radiance models. The RF9U-1 is intended for the Premium Radiance RADP, while standard RAD and R40 Series machines use different configurations.

As an Authorized Riccar Dealer, Ace Vacuums can help you verify your model number, check availability, and identify the appropriate replacement filter set.

Replacement Guidance

Inspect your vacuum's filters regularly and replace them according to the manufacturer's maintenance instructions.

  1. Turn off and unplug the vacuum before performing maintenance.

  2. Confirm that your vacuum is the Premium Radiance RADP.

  3. Locate the filter compartments using the owner's manual.

  4. Inspect the HEPA Plus, charcoal, and direct-air motor filters for dust buildup, damage, or deterioration.

  5. Confirm the replacement part number and filter configuration before purchasing.

  6. Install each filter in its designated location and secure the covers before operating the vacuum.

Do not wash or reuse filter media unless Riccar specifically identifies the component as washable. Because RF9U-1 has been reported as discontinued, confirm current stock and any proposed replacement before placing an order.

Shipping, Return & Refund Policy

Shipping Policy

In-stock merchandise generally ships from our Leesburg, Virginia location within 3–5 business days. Processing time is separate from carrier transit time and is not a guaranteed delivery date. Weekends and holidays can affect timing. Special-order, backordered or unavailable items may take longer; contact us to confirm timing before purchase when a deadline matters.

Shipping options and charges are shown at checkout. After dispatch, follow the carrier's tracking updates. Weather, carrier delays, order verification and inventory confirmation may affect delivery. Inspect packages promptly and retain packaging if there is damage or an incorrect or missing item.

Returns and refunds

Eligible unused items have a 30-calendar-day return request window for refunds or exchanges, measured from delivery or in-store purchase. Return authorization is required. Final-sale exclusions, the 15% restocking fee for change-of-mind returns and shipping responsibilities are explained in our Return and Refund Policy. That policy is the governing source for return eligibility and fees.

For shipping or return help, email sales@acevacuums.com or call 703-997-9292.

30-Day Returns, Refunds and Exchanges

Updated September 27, 2026. Request a return for an eligible unused item within 30 calendar days of delivery (or purchase for items collected in store). Eligible returns may be refunded to the original payment method or exchanged, subject to availability. The same 30-day request window applies to both refunds and exchanges; there is no separate seven-day or 15-day refund deadline.

Eligibility and authorization

Items must be unused, clean, complete and in their original packaging with all accessories, manuals and proof of purchase. Contact sales@acevacuums.com or 703-997-9292 before sending anything back. Include your order number, item and reason for return. We will confirm eligibility, charges and return instructions. Unapproved or cash-on-delivery returns are not accepted.

Fees and shipping

For an approved change-of-mind return, a 15% restocking fee applies to the returned merchandise price. Original shipping charges are not refundable and the customer pays return shipping. These charges do not apply to an approved return caused by our shipping error or a damaged/defective item claim. Contact us first so we can arrange the appropriate remedy and shipping instructions. Do not assume a prepaid label is included.

Final-sale and excluded items

Air purifiers; discounted, clearance, trade-in, holiday-sale and price-matched purchases; gift cards; custom or special-order products; electrical parts; used or installed items; opened cleaning solutions; and used bags, filters, belts or other consumables are not eligible for change-of-mind returns. Other items clearly marked final sale at purchase are also excluded. An opened box alone does not disqualify an otherwise eligible unused, complete item, but consumables and cleaning solutions must remain unopened.

Damaged, defective, incorrect or missing items; recalls

Inspect your order promptly and contact us as soon as you discover a problem, with your order number and photos where helpful. Keep the packaging. Change-of-mind exclusions and deadlines do not remove applicable defect, warranty, recall or statutory rights. Warranty coverage requires evaluation under the manufacturer's terms; dealer status does not guarantee free repair. Recalled products must follow the manufacturer's recall process.

Refund timing and exchanges

After we receive and inspect the return, we will notify you of approval or the reason it cannot be accepted. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method within 10 business days of approval; your bank may take additional time to post them. Contact us if more than 15 business days have passed since approval. Exchanges require authorization and replacement availability; any price difference and applicable charges will be explained before processing.

Applicable rights and earlier purchases

This policy applies to online and in-store purchases. We will honor more favorable written return terms provided with an earlier purchase. Applicable consumer rights remain unaffected. Where the European Union 14-day cancellation right applies, customers may cancel or return eligible orders within 14 days of receipt, subject to applicable legal exceptions, without giving a reason.
