Riccar Vacuums | Authorized Dealer – Utah | Swiss Boy Vacuum

Riccar

Riccar is a premium vacuum cleaner brand built on a simple philosophy: performance over everything. Owned by Tacony Corporation — a family-owned company headquartered in Missouri — Riccar designs and engineers vacuum cleaners for homeowners who refuse to compromise on clean. Whether you're dealing with wall-to-wall carpet, hardwood floors, pet hair, or allergy-triggering dust, Riccar builds machines specifically engineered to outperform the big-box competition. Sold exclusively through independent vacuum retailers like Swiss Boy Vacuum, every Riccar is backed by the expertise of a local specialist — not a warehouse return desk.

What sets Riccar apart mechanically is its patented Tandem Air Technology, found in its flagship upright lineup. Rather than forcing a single motor to handle both suction and brush-roll agitation, Tandem Air uses two dedicated motors working in tandem — one powering deep carpet agitation, the other driving consistent, high-velocity suction. The result is a two-motor system that delivers superior dirt removal compared to conventional direct-air or clean-air designs. Construction quality reflects that same engineering focus: premium models feature chrome steel and extruded aluminum components in the nozzle area where lesser brands use plastic, and sealed HEPA media filtration throughout to trap the finest particles before they re-enter your air.

Riccar's lineup covers the full range of cleaning needs. The Tandem Air Upright series — including the R30, R40, and R40P Pet models — targets high-performance carpet cleaning in residential homes. Riccar canisters like the Prima and Impeccable bring that same filtration quality to bare floors and multi-surface homes. Lightweight and cordless models round out the lineup for quick cleanups and smaller spaces. Riccar also backs its products with some of the strongest warranty coverage in the industry, including the Red Carpet Service Plan on select models — a no-charge servicing program that includes filter replacements, brush cleaning, and inspections performed by your authorized local dealer.

At Swiss Boy Vacuum, we are an authorized Riccar dealer serving Utah and surrounding areas, which means we carry genuine OEM Riccar parts, bags, belts, filters, and accessories for both current and older models. Our trained technicians service and repair Riccar vacuums in-store, and we stock a wide selection of Riccar uprights, canisters, and power nozzles — both for purchase and for hands-on demonstration. When you buy a Riccar through Swiss Boy, you're not just getting a vacuum; you're getting a local partner who will keep it running for years to come.

Who Is Riccar For?

Riccar is the right choice for homeowners who want a vacuum that will perform reliably for a decade or more rather than be replaced every few years. It's especially well-suited for homes with heavy carpet, allergy or asthma sufferers who need genuine HEPA filtration, and pet owners dealing with embedded fur and dander. If you've been frustrated by big-box vacuums that lose suction or fall apart within a couple of years, Riccar's independent dealer model and durable construction offer a fundamentally different ownership experience — with a local expert backing up every purchase.
