Everytime I vaccum the vaccum hose gets clogged up with carpet!?

Question

The carpet's new in my rental house and I've bought 2 new vaccums and they both get clogged up with fibers of carpet, the dirt never makes it to the storage container, is the carpet just c**p and my vaccums are sucking it up or is it normal for new carpet to come up a little at first? This is driving me nuts!

Answer 1

we just got new carpet in our home a few months ago.  its defiantly going to shed A LOT!!  just vacuum small parts of the carpet and empty out the bag or whatever kind of vacuum you have i just have a bag less it works pretty good and doesn't get clogged to easy. we had berber carpet that ruined 2 diff vacuum cleaners because it kept unraveling and getting wrapped around the rotor and stopping it and burnt the motors up.

Answer 2

It is normal to have some carpet fibers in the first few times you vaccum, but it should not stop up your cleaner.  Hope not anyway, I had a bedroom carpeted today.

Answer 3

new carpet sheds, try raising the beater on your vacuum,
