Features of the selection and operation of a hose for a Samsung vacuum cleaner

The hose at the vacuum cleaner is not the most important part. But it is difficult to imagine the operation of a standard device without this detail.

By virtue of its purpose, it is constantly subjected to various deformations and stretches, because of which, it happens, it fails. As a rule, this part of a vacuum cleaner is removable so that it can be replaced if necessary.

Samsung is a brand that needs no introduction. Each category of his products is very diverse. And vacuum cleaners are no exception.

Despite this, almost all models of this household appliance have a similar feature: their hoses have a corrugated surface. Such a structure makes them easier to use and allows you to maintain the integrity of the product. The corrugation during operation provides flexibility and smooth movement.

Usually, hoses are made from 2 types of material: polypropylene and rubber. But in their pure form, they are quite fragile and capable of breaking under the slightest influence.

All hoses for a vacuum cleaner are conventionally divided into 3 groups:

• universal - suitable for ordinary dry cleaning;
• detergents - provide not only dry, but also wet cleaning (for this they have special additions fixed to the hose using fasteners);
• special hoses - with a special purpose.

Samsung vacuum cleaner flexible hoses vary in length and diameter. The average length of the corrugation is 1.5–1.7 m. These parameters provide a sufficient coverage area and do not burden the cleaning with a long naughty hose.

The diameter of the product ranges from 3.2 to 3.7 cm. This is an important characteristic, since the power of the vacuum cleaner depends on it. The smaller it is, the higher the suction force of the device.

Special attention should be paid to this part when it is necessary to change the hose. The new corrugation must have an identical cross-section. The same goes for its length. If you change the parameters when replacing the hose, this will most likely affect the operation of the device, because its power is in direct proportion to the size of the tube.

Before the device is released to the consumer market, it undergoes a number of studies, including its hose. For it, an average of 5000 test cycles are carried out. Each cycle consists of 5 scrolls to the right and left. The strength of the product and its connections with other parts of the vacuum cleaner are evaluated.

The hose of the vacuum cleaner on one end is equipped with a tip for connecting to the body of the device, or rather, to the dust collector. On the other side there is a mount for connection with a metal tube.

The hose is connected to the tube by means of a handle. She plays the role of not only the holder. In some models of vacuum cleaners, for example Samsung VC21K5136VB, the handle also acts as a regulator. On its surface there are buttons with which you can turn on the device and select the power without being distracted from work.

With the help of a swivel mechanism located on the border of the hose with the handle, they maneuver in different directions.In a number of devices, such a mechanism is able to rotate 360 ​​°, which allows you to maneuver brushes even in hard-to-reach places and protects the hose from kinking.

Separately, it should be said about hoses for vacuum cleaners. Considering that such models are capable of performing both dry and wet cleaning, a tube for water outlet is additionally attached to their corrugation, as well as a trigger that supplies it. They are fixed to the hose using special clamps.

The corrugated tube has no other features. And outwardly it looks the same as that of a conventional vacuum cleaner.

The new model of the Samsung VW9000 washing vacuum cleaner, which has recently appeared on the market, has an improved configuration. In it, the water supply is regulated using a handle, on which a button for spraying a liquid is located.

Some people confuse the concepts of a washing vacuum cleaner and a device with an aquafilter. The latter does not imply wet cleaning with water spray. It just has a water filter that protects against dust. This, for example, is the SD9421 Aquatic model. Since it does not provide an outlet for the water jet, its hose is not equipped with special devices and has a conventional structure.

You will need to replace the corrugated tube in case of deformation or rupture. At the same time, it loses its function - it ceases to fully absorb dust and debris.

To make a replacement, you are required to purchase a new product. In this case, first of all, be guided by the model and type of your vacuum cleaner. Be sure to consider the length and diameter of the hose.

To fix a new corrugation with a handle, first you need to pull out the old one, for this:

• disconnect the hose from the metal tube by pressing the lock button;
• disconnect the fitting, that is, the fastening of the hose to the body of the vacuum cleaner by pressing the latches;
• fix the new hose in reverse order.

If you need to replace the corrugation itself directly, for this you need to disassemble its connections with attachment to the vacuum cleaner and to the handle. This is usually done by unscrewing the tube along the thread or squeezing out the latches.

If the attachment itself is damaged, it can be purchased separately. It should be borne in mind that its outer diameter for connection to the vacuum cleaner is smaller than the one that connects to the hose. It is worth choosing such a fitting according to the inner diameter corresponding to the section of the corrugation. Usually it has 2 latches, which help to fix it to the body.

Such attachments for a vacuum cleaner are suitable for many models of the Samsung brand by their design.

The price of a hose for Samsung vacuum cleaner models is on average 1000–3000 rubles. To ensure that the product retains its performance for as long as possible, saving you from unplanned purchases, you should follow the basic rules of working with the device.

• Protect the hose from unnecessary kinks and strains.
• Store the device disassembled or so that its tube is not deformed. To do this, place it in a specially designated place with sufficient area so that it can freely (without hesitation) sit. Some models are supposed to have special clips on the bottom or back of the case. They allow the hose to be fixed vertically.
• After working with a washing vacuum cleaner, it should be rinsed and dried well.
• Do not allow debris, hair to accumulate in the tube. Make sure that no large objects fall into it. This is easy to evaluate, since in this case the sound of the device changes.

The hose of the vacuum cleaner is directly responsible for the cleanliness of your home, because it is he who collects dust and other dirt. Its parameters can affect the strength of the device. This is why it is so important to find the right product when you need to replace it.
