Product details
Riccar and Simplicity's MV Pet models and the M1200 use granulated charcoal filter media, sold in bulk as part C480-7000. Charcoal handles a job the machine's dust filters cannot: the bag and the other filter stages catch particles, while the charcoal layer absorbs odor that would otherwise reach the exhaust unchanged.
Homes with dogs or cats typically use up a charge of charcoal well before the dust-based filter change interval arrives, because the media saturates with odor long before it clogs with debris. If the exhaust smells off even though suction still feels strong, the charcoal is what needs attention rather than the filter itself.
Buying the media in bulk means the charcoal can be topped up as it saturates, which suits a stage that reaches the end of its useful life on its own schedule rather than in step with the bag.
