Dyson V8 Absolute Extra – Plus.Parts® Maintenance Set

The Dyson V8 Absolute Extra is an extended-accessory variant in the V8 Absolute family, delivering 115 AW suction with up to 40 minutes of runtime. It includes both a direct-drive motorised cleaner head for carpets and a soft roller for smooth hard floors, requiring two separate maintenance routines. The motorised brush bar is cleared at both end caps every one to two weeks to prevent hair wrap from triggering the brush bar motor’s thermal protection. The soft roller is not machine-washable; it is tapped out monthly and the woven surface wiped with a lightly damp cloth. Both the pre-motor filter and the post-motor HEPA filter are washed monthly under cold running water until the rinse water runs clear, then left upright to air-dry for a minimum of 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.
