The Shop-Vac basic 1X1 wet/dry vac comes with a four-foot hose; some owners report better performance if they remove the hose, take the filter ring off, remove both filters, and then wash the hose out in warm soapy water. Frustrated with the short hose that comes on the Shop-Vac 1x1, some have borrowed extension hoses from other manufacturers' vacuum cleaners (such as the Kirby) in order to reach cornices and ceiling fans in order to clean them of cobwebs and spiders. Other customers report that the Shop-Vac 5 gallon Wet-Dry Vac (at 4 and 12 horsepower) has enough of a hose to reach 15 feet, halfway across a home basement. Responding to the Shop-Vac model 92P350, customers note that it comes factory-equipped with a 12 1/2 inch diameter six foot hose. This model converts to a water pump by opening up the canister, emptying out all the dirt, and then attaching the hose and filter to the bottom of the cage. Shop-Vac manufactures eight different models of vacuum cleaner hoses. The Shop-Vac All-Around Hose is mode number 905-59-00; the Shop-Vac Mighty Mini hose is model number 901-20-00; the six foot Shop-Vac BullDog hose is ...
... model number 902-39-00, and the six foot Shop-Vac 2.5" hose is model number 905-03-00. The Shop Vac seven foot 1 1/4" hose is model number 905-12-00; the seven foot Shop-Vac 1.25" crushproof hose is model number 905-01-00, the Shop-Vac Hose with Hose & Tool Holder is model number 905-64-00, and finally the 12 foot Shop-Vac contractor hose is model number 906-25-00.
