How can you find where there is a leak in a vacuum cleaner hose?

eternal_goof asked:


I’m trying to fix my Eureka vacuum cleaner (model number 4495a-1). It is a bagless vacuum and nothing that I vucuum up makes it to the cannister. All of the debris sits in the part of the hose that runs from the brush area through the base of the vacuum. Hope this makes sense. Anyone know what might be wrong?? Could it be a leak in the hose?

I had spend several days looking for a good vacuum cleaner. No luck so far. As soon as i find something that has a good review i find another review that says pretty much to stay away from that model. I am looking for a good upright bagless. Please help. Thank you.

If you suck bugs up with a vacuum cleaner, will they be able to fly out?

I opened my door at night, and a bunch of gnats and moths flew in. I sucked them up with the hose attachment to my vacuum cleaner, but I’m afraid if I put my vacuum cleaner back in the broom closet, then all the bugs will fly back out. I’m thinking surely there is some sort of flap or valve to prevent this, but I don’t know for sure.

What vacuum cleaner do you like the best?

johnboy795 asked:


Over the years I have had many different vaccum cleaners. Like dirt devil, hoover, rainbow and filter queen to name a few. They all seemed to work OK when they were new, but they all would end up in the same place. The garbage. Rainbow and filter queen seemed to have pretty good longevity though. Recently I purchased a Kirby. It is expensive but well worth it. I really like the dry shampoo system. Being a single parent of two young boys, its very important for me to keep my floors and carpets as clean as possible. Kirby is way in front of the rest. I wish that I bought one long ago. And its guaranteed for life. So what vacuum cleaner works best for you?

My vacuum cleaner got wet after our basement flooded ( a few inches of standing water). the vacuum cleaner got wet in the process. it is totally dry now, but not sure if it would be safe to use as I do not want to get electrocuted.
