Dyson V7 Animal Extra – Plus.Parts® Maintenance Set

The Dyson V7 Animal Extra is the performance pet variant in the V7 range, delivering 100 AW suction with up to 30 minutes of runtime. It ships with the direct-drive motorised cleaner head fitted with stiff nylon bristles designed to extract embedded pet hair from carpets. In active pet households, hair concentrates at both bearing ends of the brush bar within one to two weeks; Dyson specifies clearing both end caps every one to two weeks rather than waiting for the brush bar motor’s thermal cutout to trip mid-clean. The pre-motor filter accumulates pet dander rapidly and benefits from washing every two to three weeks rather than the standard monthly interval under daily pet-hair use. Both the pre-motor filter and the post-motor HEPA filter must be confirmed fully dry for 24 hours before refitting.

This kit is a Plus.Parts® alternative to the original Dyson parts /, supplying 2 matched pairs of washable HEPA filters (4 filters in total), a bin cover and quick-release buttons (small and large). The two filter pairs support a continuous run-and-wash rotation: one pair stays in the machine while the other completes its mandatory 24-hour air-dry after washing. The bin cover replaces the wear-prone lid that cracks under repeated point-and-shoot emptying; the quick-release buttons – supplied in both small and large sizes – restore the snap-fit that holds attachments securely during use. Wash both filters cold-water only, rubbing firmly until the rinse water runs clear, then leave them upright in a well-ventilated area for a full 24 hours before refitting. Never use heat, detergent or a washing machine. Replace both filters after approximately 12 months of normal use, or sooner if repeated washing no longer restores visible whiteness.
