Is the shop vac detachable from the wall mount to use in areas not reached by the 18ft hose?

Yes, I think so, but you would be limited by the cord, which isn't as long as a vac. cord would be.

Yes it is we use one of our units on a cutting machine and detach from the wall to clean the area under said machine.... Works great

yes it is,would recommend longer hose,i used the one of my old unit to supplement its length,longer is better!

I'm sorry, I no longer work for the company that bought this shop vac and I can't answer this question.

Yes, there is a utility port on the right hand side to directly connect a vacuum hose. I use it to with my car kit as the unit is mounted in the garage. As far as the inlet/outlet, they must be behind the unit going into the wall, I don't see any outlets except for the utility one.

Yes, the end fits nicely in the 2-1/2" Shop Vac connection. The included coupling allows connecting the smaller hoses as well (or another large hose).

Yes, but the vac accessory is a separate purchase. It is a really nice unit--I'm pleased with mine

The outside diameter is 1 7/16 inch, so maybe it would fit inside the shop vac tube. You could measure. If you wanted a more permanent connection, even if the fit were a little off, you might use duct tape.

It doesn't have any place to hook up a hose, the long attachment is for your pole and suction attachment is for a normal 1 1/4 " hose that connects to your filtering system.

I'll be honest, it's not great. When you detach the hose and add the cleaning attachment, there is no cover on the opening where the hose attaches normally. You have to almost cover it with your foot to prevent the dust from going everywhere. I rarely use the attachments as I have a Miele I use for the hard to reach places.

John, I purchased this and no it doesn't need to be mounted to use. You can remove from walk and vacuum.

The hose is relatively short, but stretches to about 3 feet or more and with the hard attachment to the vacuum it adds another 4 feet or so. Oreck has stores all over, there might be one close to you where you can see it for yourself.

Yes, it comes off like a vacumn cleaner hose. Home Depot and Lowes sell longer hoses.

Hose must be the size of the dust port. A reducer or expander could be coupled to the hose of the vac to make a good fit.

Yes, the dust bag can be removed. I suppose is not difficult to attach to a shop vac. Luck!

This hose does not attach to the current hose on the vac. You have to remove the shorter hose and then attach the longer one. It is a heavier hose and noticeably so when doing regular floor vacuuming. So you'll probably only want to attach it when you need a longer reach. Hope this helps.

I have found the hose to be plenty long- to reach the corners of my ceiling with the attachment brushes and extension wand. Not sure how the length compares to larger, heavier models, but for this lighter weight model I feel like the designers made the hose plenty long. I don't want to haul around an extra long hose as I mainly use the vac for carpets / 98% of the time I don't use the hose.

It's about 6 maybe 6 1/2 inches in diameter. Don't know about the shop vac. I never owned one.

I didn't measure the hose, but I think the hose is a bit short, but when you use the attachments connected with the hose it helps. The hose needs to be longer. When you do use the attachments connected to the hose, you may find yourself tugging on the hose and pulling on the vacuum cleaner itself. The quality of the Kenmore Elite is definitely there. Cons- length of the hose.

Hey Joe, In short, yes. It depends on the exact size of your shop vac's house, obviously (higher powered shop vacs typically have larger diameter houses), but this does come with at least one adapter. If you have a really large hose, you may have to buy a cheap adapter, but this should fit into most hoses no problem. Hope this helps.
