2001 Hoover Steamvac Widepath Max Extract LS with a little issue

[vacsofprosper]

Hey everyone. I thought I show you guys a cool looking old Hoover deep cleaner I recently won from a eBay bid. I always wanted one of these Steamvac Widepaths with the headlights. I think they look really cool and convenient. Unfortunately the main issue this has is the hose attachment. It's teared after years of lowering the machine all the way down which is typical for these Steamvacs at the time. I was wondering if there's a new replacement hose for this model? And how to remove the hose too. Thank you.

Unfortunately the replacement hoses have since been discontinued. As long as solution still sprays out of the hose with no leaks, you can just wrap the hose up with tape and you'll be fine.

Everybody

I just recently returned the Steamvac to the seller via USPS. I planing on getting one of those new in box Steamvacs that are on eBay currently.

Maybe an idea to fix it

Is the hose too short to recuff? If so maybe you could take a bigger hose to fit around the pipe. Just an idea I had on my mind.

I probably would've but unfortunately I decided to return the Steamvac back to the seller from eBay to get a refund and did found a NOS Hoover Steamvac F5910-900. There was a Steamvac F5905-900 new in box but someone already got it. Can't wait to get my new in box Steamvac.
