Question

Can a swimming pool vac hose be converted in to a long hose for a SHOP VAC OR ANY OTHER VAC

Answer 1

You could, but you would have to buy the right fitting connectors for each end. But honestly, pool vacs are c**p, and it would be much easier to just buy the hose you want. Then it'll probably come with the connectors anyway. It'll save you a lot of trouble later on.

Answer 2

Could be done but I bet your cleaners hose uses the 3' sections that you put together.  These cleaners torque the hose to navigate and if you use a solid hose they are not as rigid as the sectioned hose and will remember coils and sets more than sectioned hose.  Also note the first hose attached to the head is tapered.

You're welcome!!

Answer 3

Yes just make sure the connectors fit

Answer 4

Yea... and you can buy size adapters at any home store. The central vac unit in my house uses blue hoses that look like they were made to be pool plumbing.

Answer 5

a swimming pool vac hose is flimsy and might not hold up to a lot of debris that you would pick up in your work shop but try it pool company owner
