Amazing Stretch Hose for Quick Clean-ups Q&A

I purchased one of these hoses for my MD vac system and the vac does not engage when I plug it in. My system is 110 volt with two prongs next to the inlet and the vac is controled by the UPB signal over the powerline. What can I do to make this hose activate the vac for my quick clean up's? Scott Flower Mound

I have an AirVac system with 1.5" inlets that power up when the hose is inserted. I purchased the Up-and-Over tool. My metal push button wands are l 1/4" inside diameter on both ends and 1 3/16 outside diameter on the attachment end. The Up-&-Over graduated narrow-to-larger end is too loose to fit inside the wand on the first section of the tool, and is too large at the second section for my wand to fit over it. I tried wrapping tape around the first section, but that's not very satisfactory. It's too loose in the end of the metal hose handle also. Isn't it supposed to fit AirVacs? Any suggestions? Also, will the 6'-22' stretch hose work with my system and and above metal wands? Carolyn Russellville, AR

I am looking for a short, flexible hose which will attach to the hose handle end. I would hold the hose handle end in one hand, and use the small hose with a brush attached to get into small spaces.

Your description reads: Attachment end is 1.25 inches with a taper and can only be used with PLASTIC EXTENSION WANDS below. Does this mean I cannot just attach my crevice tool to the hose, without the wand?

Does it auto on when I insert hose into intake? Thanx,Dixie

do you sell only the brush?

connie phx. az. i need a stretch hose color ivory or white for my central vacumme

I bought your stretch hose - love it, but would like to convert it so it has an on/of electric. Can that be done?

Does the stretch hose require a corded end or direct connect? Can I attach anything to the end not at the wall - like a crevice device? Thanks

my electrolux vacumn is the 2100 and I need a hose. Is this the right one?

Susan, Tallahassee FL I have an M&S central vac system, using a 30\' low-voltage hose. It has a power switch on the handle. I would like to be able to use it on my porch, so I\'d like to know if I can get an extension hose to fit over the existing wand end. I think the wand end is 1.25\" OD. Do you have anything that will extend the reach for maybe another 20\'? I do not care if there is a power switch on the extended hose. Just want to be able to vac on the porch! Thank you!

Does this hose attach to an existing hose that is attached to the in house inlets or the vacuum in the garage.

We have a central vacuum cleaner in a 38 foot yacht. The vacuum cleaner automatically turns on when you plug the stretch hose into the vacuum opening. I am no sure of the brand of the vacuum; however, the stretch hose looks very similar to the stretch hose shown on your website. I would like to get an extension for our existing hose so that we can use the vaccuum in the cockpit area of the boat. I need about 10 additional feet of stretch vaccuum hose. Will your 22 foot hose work? Do you sell a ten or twelve foot hose? Dan Plano, TX

My wall outlets are 1.25" (Budd). Is there a tapered cuff I can use with the stretch hose?

The hose I need to replace has a 1.375" fitting that connects to the vacuum system. Will this hose fit that? The standard seems to be 1.25" and 1.5", I am having trouble finding 1.375". Thanks for your time.

Would it fit with an older model of Beam bought 10 years ago?

Will the stretch hose work with the Hoover Garage Utility Vac and its attachments? Elin Kingston, Ontario

Have a Genie Shop Vacuum with a short hose with an inside diameter of 1.25". I want to keep the end fittings and just get a 30 foot piece of hose to replace the short hose. Can you supply the hose only.

my central vac hose doesn't reach to my screen porch. Can I use your stretch hose to extend the reach of my regular hose?

How much does the hose weight?

This hose would be perfect if I could get it in a bigger 3" size for an industrial aplication. Is that available from you or if not do you have a manufacturer name I could contact?

I want a hose to use quickly to pickup trash at the door/bathroom. I have an Aerus (formerly Electroux) Model E130G.

I would like to know if after much use of the strech hose does it tend to no be as retractable as it would be at the new state? I have a 25 ft hose now and looking to buy a new hose due to some breakage and how dirty the hose have become. Please help???

Is there a way to connect 2 stretch hoses together so you can have it longer? Help! We have one stretch hose already plus 2 more hoses for the interior, which we would prefer not getting "that" dirty in the garage. There are a lot of us out there with 3 car garages. Any chance of getting the hose "Guru's" to invent a 40-50 foot stretch hose, or is that too much of a "stretch"?

I know you've stated this a million times, but I still want to make sure that this stretch hose works with the low voltage "on & off" systems. -joe new milford, ct

Will this hose work with my Beam Central Vacuum and activate it the way my garage kit does? In other words my inlets allow either the power attachment with the two prongs or the garage hose with the metal band to activate the vacuum. The garage hose does not have an on/off switch the same as your stretch hose.

Is this stretch hose compatible with inlets for MVAC M90 central vac system? My inlets have a notch at the 12 o'clock position that the hoses need to be lined up with in order for the vacuum to turn on. Thanks from Angela in Toronto

I am veterinarian and am installing a eureka central vacuum unit in a storage room. I would like a short hose (roughly 6-8 feet) that I can leave semi-permanently into an inlet for quick pick up of hair after prepping animals for surgery. I have already looked into adding a small rocker switch to the inlet panel to allow me to turn it on/off without unhooking the hose. My problem is finding a short hose that will be durable enough to be used multiple times daily. This stretch hose looked appealing but durability might be an issue. What's the shortest hose you make and if 30' is the shortest can it be shortened? Brent Paragould, Arkansas

I'm not sure what non-electric means. We have a new Aerus, Centralux system. Will this shorter hose work with this system?

Which Nutone inlets will the hose work with? My inlets are the CI-370 from Nutone and I believe I'm using just a universal hose with them now. Thanks, Eric

Do I have to purchase a plastic wand with this hose? I only have metal ones.

is this powerstar eden compatible? thx!

Hi- I have a Eureka Boss system. I currently have a 25ft hose, but I'm thinking about the extension hose kit. Does the chrome have protective coating so not to scratch wood floors? Also, how long does the pipe that comes with the hose extend to with this kit? Thank you for your assistance.

I have an MD Modern Maid Central vac. Does the stretch hose come with the metal band around it that automatically turns on the vac when hose is plugged into inlet? Also how fast does the hose return to its 6 ft. small position? For instance when you are ready to store the unit does it return to 6 feet. If I buy this seperately is their free shipping? PS I am buying this for my wife, but if I bought it for her for Christmas she would stuff me in the vacuum

We have a Dirt Devil CV 950 in our 5th wheel RV. Is this hose compatible? Also can we use it as a replacement for our regular hose which now has holes in it. Nancy, Apache Junction, AZ

Hello, our intake is 1.25" I.D. Will this hose fit? Does this hose come with any accessories / adaptors?(i.e. brushes, wands etc?) Thanks.

Do I need to purchase metal attatchment or will the accessories fit straight on the hose? Sara Betesh brooklyn

I have a nutone vacuum system and am looking for a short hose to keep handy for old wood stove ashes. 7-8 feet are fine. is this hose compatible even though it doesn't have an on-off switch? when I connect it will I have suction automatically? Louise, Blowing Rock, NC

When the hose is in use and stretched is there any notable stress on the fittings at either end due to the tension of the hose? How much tension could I expect when the hose is fully stretched?

Can the stretch hose be used with a Turbo Cat or other turbine driven brush?

Concerning part #315, the Stretch hose : could it be used as an extension to a normal vacuum hose? Can the handle end of the strecth hose can be inserted in the wall end of a typical vacuum hose? If not, do you have central vacuum hose extension for those hard to reach spots I can't get to with my 35' hose?

I currently am cleaning a commercial bldg with a portable vacuum, that has a short hose attachment. Will your extension hose work on the end of the one I have? The main question is whether the added hose will cause a stress on the motor and system on the vacuum? Thank you.

Hello, I have a WalVac system in my house that I haven't used for 20 years. I am setting up a woodshop in my basement, with a dust collection system. I thought maybe I could use the WalVac system to complement my dust collection system. There is a 1.5" WalVac port in the room. I checked the WalVac vacuum, and it still turns on. Will the stretch hose work with it? Will the vacuum turn on automatically when I plug the stretch hose into the port? Carl, Grand Rapids
