Riccar R27D Clean Air Deluxe Upright Vacuum — Power, HEPA Filtration, and Long-Term Durability
The Riccar R27D Clean Air vacuum is a premium upright vacuum cleaner built for homeowners who want powerful deep-carpet cleaning, advanced HEPA media filtration with charcoal odor control, and the kind of durable construction that holds up through years of daily use. Using Riccar’s Clean Air technology, the R27D maintains strong suction even as the bag fills — dirt passes through the filtration system before reaching the motor, protecting the vacuum and ensuring a longer service life. Currently priced at $599.99 — $100 below the $699.99 MSRP.

Clean Air Technology — Strong Suction Even as the Bag Fills
The R27D uses Riccar’s Clean Air technology — a design philosophy where dirt passes through the filtration system before reaching the motor. This protects the motor from fine dust and debris while maintaining strong, consistent suction throughout the bag’s life. Riccar focuses on balancing suction with smooth airflow channels rather than just advertising peak suction numbers — the result is a vacuum that performs consistently in real-world use, not just in lab tests.
Triple-Stage HEPA Filtration with Charcoal Odor Control
The R27D’s filtration system has three layers working together:
Self-sealing charcoal-lined HEPA media bag (Part #R27HC-6) — captures 99.97% of dust and allergens down to 0.3 microns; the charcoal layer fights household odors; the self-sealing closure prevents dust exposure during bag changes
Granulated charcoal secondary filter — provides additional odor control for households with pets, cooking odors, and musty smells
Pleated HEPA post-filter (Part #RF27) — catches any fine particles that pass through the bag before air exits the machine
This triple-stage system is rated by the Carpet and Rug Institute and makes the R27D one of the best upright vacuums available for allergy sufferers and odor-sensitive households.
Two Brushroll Speeds + Brushroll On/Off — Optimized for Every Surface
Most uprights run the brushroll at a single speed and can’t disengage it without an accessory. The R27D gives you two brushroll speeds — higher for deep carpet agitation, lower for delicate rugs and low-pile carpet — plus a brushroll on/off control that disengages the brushroll entirely for safe cleaning of bare floors, hardwood, and delicate surfaces without scratching. This combination makes the R27D genuinely versatile across every floor type in your home.
Metal Brushroll with Replaceable Strips — Built to Last Years
The metal brushroll with replaceable brushstrips delivers consistent, deep carpet agitation without the wear and deformation that plastic brushrolls suffer over time. When the brushstrips eventually wear, they can be replaced at your local Riccar retailer — extending the machine’s effective cleaning life and maintaining peak carpet agitation performance for years rather than months.
Floating Nozzle with Automatic Height Adjustment — Seamless Floor Transitions
The floating nozzle automatically adjusts its height based on your carpet pile without any manual dial or switch. Whether you’re moving from plush carpet to Berber to hardwood to area rug, the nozzle maintains optimal contact with the floor surface at all times — ensuring consistent suction and agitation without you stopping to adjust anything.
Ultra-Bright LED Headlights — See What You’re Cleaning
Ultra-bright LED headlights illuminate the cleaning path ahead, making it easy to spot and remove dust, pet hair, and debris in dark corners, under furniture, and along dark baseboards where dirt hides from standard vacuums.
Lifetime Belt with Jam Sensor — Protects the Motor
The lifetime belt with jam sensor automatically stops the brushroll the instant it detects a jam — before the belt breaks. A dedicated indicator light alerts you to clear the obstruction. Because the belt is protected from jam-related breakage, Riccar backs it with a lifetime warranty. This single feature prevents the most common repair need on competitive upright vacuums.
11-Foot Above-Floor Cleaning Reach
The R27D’s telescoping metal wand and stretch hose extend your above-floor cleaning reach to 11 feet — cleaning stairs, upholstery, curtains, ceiling fans, baseboards, and tight corners without switching machines or repositioning the vacuum. The telescoping metal wand is significantly more durable than plastic wands found on competing vacuums.
35-Foot Power Cord — Extended Coverage Between Outlets
A 35-foot power cord covers significantly more floor area between outlet changes — reducing interruptions during whole-home cleaning sessions and making the R27D practical for large rooms and long hallways.
Reclines Fully Flat — Cleans Under Furniture
The R27D reclines completely flat to the floor, allowing the vacuum head to pass under beds, sofas, chairs, and tables that other uprights cannot access. Combined with the LED headlights, this makes under-furniture cleaning genuinely thorough rather than approximate.
One-Sided Edge Cleaning
The R27D’s nozzle is designed for one-sided edge cleaning — the brushroll and suction path reach all the way to the left side of the nozzle, allowing the vacuum to clean tight against baseboards and walls on the left side without leaving an uncleaned strip.
Full Bag Sensor
A dedicated full bag sensor light alerts you when the bag needs replacing before suction drops — eliminating guesswork and ensuring peak performance throughout every cleaning session.
Non-Marking Translucent Furniture Guard
The translucent non-marking furniture guard protects walls, door frames, and furniture from scuffs and marks during cleaning. The clear color means it won’t leave dark streaks on light-colored baseboards.
3-Year Warranty and Red Carpet Service Plan
The Riccar R27D is backed by a 3-year warranty. Twin City Vacuum is an authorized Riccar retailer and fully honors the Red Carpet Service Plan — scheduled complimentary tune-ups performed by our trained technicians at our Crystal, MN location. Each tune-up covers inspection and adjustment of the belt, agitator strips, full bag indicator, jam indicator, height adjustment, headlights, and suction — keeping your R27D running at peak performance throughout its life.

Frequently Asked Questions — Riccar R27D Clean Air Deluxe Vacuum
Is the Riccar R27D good for allergies?
Yes. The R27D uses a triple-stage sealed filtration system — a charcoal-lined HEPA media bag, granulated charcoal secondary filter, and pleated HEPA post-filter — capturing 99.97% of dust and allergens down to 0.3 microns. The self-sealing bag prevents dust exposure during changes. This is one of the best upright vacuums available for allergy-sensitive households.
What is the difference between the Riccar R27D and R27P?
The R27D focuses on durability, HEPA filtration, and extended reach without pet-specific features. The R27P adds a dedicated dust and allergen sensor, pet-specific cleaning tools, and a 5-year warranty (vs the R27D’s 3 years) and extends above-floor reach to 15 feet. The R27D is the better value for homes without heavy pet hair needs. The R27P is worth the upgrade for serious pet owners.
Can the Riccar R27D be used on hardwood floors?
Yes. The brushroll on/off control disengages the brushroll entirely for safe cleaning on bare floors and hardwood without scratching. The floating nozzle also transitions automatically between carpet and hard floor surfaces.
What does the Riccar Clean Air technology mean?
Clean Air technology means dirt passes through the filtration system before reaching the motor — filtering the air as it moves through the vacuum rather than after. This protects the motor from fine dust and maintains consistent suction even as the bag fills, unlike design approaches where suction decreases significantly as the bag gets full.
What is the lifetime belt and how does it work?
The lifetime belt with jam sensor automatically stops the brushroll when it detects a jam — before the belt breaks. A dedicated indicator light alerts you to clear the blockage. Because the belt is protected from breakage, Riccar backs it with a lifetime warranty. This prevents the most common repair need on standard upright vacuums.
What bags and filters does the Riccar R27D use?
Bags: Part #R27HC-6 (charcoal-lined self-sealing HEPA media bags, 6-pack). Filters: Part #RF27 (pleated HEPA post-filter and granulated charcoal secondary filter). Twin City Vacuum includes a free pack of R27HC-6 bags with every R27D purchase.
What is the warranty on the Riccar R27D?
The R27D is backed by a 3-year warranty. Twin City Vacuum is an authorized Riccar dealer and provides full warranty support and the Red Carpet Service Plan.
