How to replace a Floor Nozzle Hose for a Shark HV300 Dual Clean Rocket Vacuum Cleaner and more 

I found the hose on Amazon, and I didn't use any glue. I was able to replace it myself after the local vacuum repair shop declined, saying they couldn't get parts. I'm a 71 year old female with absolutely no prior experience that would pertain to vacuum repair, so this is really doable with this video to help. Getting it apart was the hardest part.

Successfully replaced the hose in my older Shark Rocket vacuum by following this video! I did have to use a wider diameter hose (but also have a different model number than quoted here - I think a 301). Also, noticed several commenters saying the hoses aren't glued in; the original hose on my vacuum was absolutely sealed in with glue/some other adhesive, making it a bit messy and difficult to remove. I just screwed the replacement hose in and didn't use an adhesive, but wanted to mention since so many people are saying there's no glue. Also, for other super amateurs like myself: if you're having trouble screwing the hose in or out: you're probably just turning it the wrong way. Try the "other", counterintuitive way. I spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to turn it the wrong way initially, before: success.

Thank you so much for this video!! ... I was about to throw out my year-old Shark HV301, and then someone told me about this video. I successfully installed a new hose thanks to you and brought my vacuum back to life. This floor nozzle problem is very common with these units and I'm aghast that Shark has not issued any product recalls. It's also not covered under their "limited" 5-year warranty. Their warranty should be renamed "non-existent" 5-year warranty. This is clearly an engineering and/or manufacturing defect on Shark's part and should be covered under warranty. Shame on Shark.

Thank you SO MUCH!! I was able to replace my Shark hose with your easy to follow steps. My first repair attempt. I did have a piece left over wasn’t sure where it was from. Half moon shaped rubber gasket. Anyway the vac works like a charm.

I have this vacuum. Love this vacuum for my small apartment. And I'm glad to know this is a common issue as it means there's plenty of resources. Thank you for this video. I'm a diy guy but didn't know where to start

Excellent video!!! Thank you for sharing your skills with all of us who enjoy DIY projects. I admire your patience and fine motor skills.

Obviously Shark needs to recall due to this malfunctioning part. Way too many people having the same exact problem

Just successfully changed my vacuum hose with this video! $9 hose from Amazon and RU-vid just saved me $230 and a trip to the store to get a new vacuum. I just vacuumed 24 hours ago and the new hose just pulled out about 1/2 a canister of debris. Frightening! How many hours have I wasted just spreading debris around the house with a broken hose? Thanks a bundle!

Thanks for the video! I'm not that mechanically inclined. I was concerned about breaking the vacuum when disassembling it, but was able to fix the hose because of your video. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for providing the link to where to get this hose. That is one mother bear to find, I've been searching for over a week now. Getting the vacuum apart was a sinch finding the hose was the hard part

This video was super helpful, thank you. Took me exactly 1 hr 1min to complete this hose replacement. I used gorilla glue.

Very good videeo. Found the hose on Amazon and it was exactly the length you measured. Everything went togather as you described. I also didn't use any glue. Thanks!

Great video. Glad you mentioned counter clockwise, that helped get the hose out. I was going to mend it with duct tape but since it was apart I ordered a new hose. Thanks for the steps for getting to the hose and getting it out.

Great video, I was able to replace the hose in our vacuum with no major difficulty.

Thank you, I was able to replace the hose in my Rocket, this video filled in some needed info.

Good job on this video. My husband and I followed along with you and it was real easy. You saved us lots of money. Repair guy would have charged a minimum of $60. Thanks.

Helpful vid. Note later models use Security Torx screws. Buy removal tools at Harbor freight for about $7.

My hose was glued in - HV300. Bought a hose from Amazon - Hose for Shark Rocket HV300, HV302 Vacuum Black Hose Motorized Lower Nozzle, 6" x 1.25" ID - but it was slightly too big and started to crack the hose attachment.

Thank you so much for this! I followed you step by step and it worked perfectly!

Thanks for the help! I ordered the hose from the link and it was a tad bit narrow so I put some gorilla tape on both ends, added some rubber cement and reinstalled. I'll give it a run tomorrow.

Thank you so much. I was able to fix my hose. Didn't use glue though

Got the recommended hose, worked perfect! Thanks!

Great video, I found that those hoses screw it's into each end adapter so when taking it off on the bottom turn turn the adapter to the right clockwise opposite of what you normally would and when you go to take the hose off the top you do the same thing , screw it to the right it unscrews from each adapter end. Before I order one of those houses I am going to measure this and see if I got something off an old vacuum or can find somewhere cheaper than what they sell them for . Thank you for the video

Try a heat gun to loosen glue..good instructions sir

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Made it easy to understand and fix our Shark!

Thanks for the step-by-step instructions.

I found on my Shark HV301 the hose once loose screwed out of the swivel unit and also the coupling..

Great video. Very helpful.

Fantastic vid, having to do the same job, order the hose on line, thanks for taking the time to do the work

This video is very helpful thank you so much,but I have a question! Which tool to use to get those screws out?

Very helpful, thank you for making this video. My wife thanks you too.

Thank you for doing this video! 👏🙏

Thank you! It was so easy.

I tried this with a shark rocket HV380w (a newer model). Every screw is a security screw and the hose is glued on both sides. The hose on the motor side has a rubber collar bonded to the plastic which appears that shark has now made the motorized floor nozzle extremely difficult (near impossible) to repair even with a replacement hose bit. The glue, even with using acetone, is near impossible to remove. It appears they have changed the hose size several times between models and if your host diameter is off by 1-3 mm it won't thread. The cost of sending in the vacuum is approximately $20 if its under warranty. I ended up abandoning the project and unfortunately had to buy a replacement part from the manufacturer. If this happens to part that I ordered from shark, I will likely find another brand. Shark needs to support peoples right to repair by designing their products to have the hose (and other parts) to be replaced easier or they will need to design a more heavy duty hose section that does not break down.

The video was was super helpful, as was the link to the replacement hose

I have a shark navigator mt problem is it has not lost suction. It seems like it has too much suctuin. When I turn it on its very hard to push across the carpet. Does rhat make sense 😮

I put the NEW hose on and now the wand won’ t LOCK ..ANY SUGGESTIONS ..

Thank you!! We did it! :)

The video was great but the hose you recommended were to small for both my Shark Rocket vacuums. Both broke the same week. They were different models. One the exact same as yours. Both original hoses were identical from different models and year. My advice is to find one a little bigger but I had already ordered 2 so I made due. We'll see if they hold. Thanks for the video!

I was hoping to do this but the bissell lower hose has its wiring running in circles inside the hose and I'm not sure if I want to rewire it

I can’t even get all the screws out as there’s little metal posts in the middle of the screw like it wasn’t fully punched correctly? It’s really frustrating because I really love this lil vac and need to replace the hose that essentially disintegrated after only 8 months of light use!

Why can’t I find the hose for the HV 305 model😒

I have a Shark HV300 series vac the hose split on the bend. There are 3 screws I cannot identify. Should be either Phillips, Hex, T-15 or T20.... tried all of those nothing works. I have concluded that the screws were stripped on the production line. Vacuum is only 6 years old. Gee I would like to vacuum at some point

Excellent presentation!

What size screw driver/drill bit do I use?? I know he mentioned it in the video, but can’t find the spot

How do I fix a loose wheel?

Thank you for making this video! Really helped me out😊

Excellent tutorial. Thank you!

Man, the screws are to like old to take out or just messed up. Ordered the hose and everything

Very well done got it fixed 👍

Where can I buy the coupling part ??

Hose is Not Glued in...Too remove the hose turn it like a reverse thread.. just turn it to the right and it will come out easily.. turn to the left to install.

The hose screws in an out, you ripping this out made me giggle.

Thanks for making this.👍

Can someone please tell me the size bits for the two different types of screws. Please and thank you😇

I had the same issue can some suggest me a more durable hose or new floor head the won’t split

I need to buy one electric screwdriver 🙂

I had a little trouble with my tubing. I needed to trim a little more off the top because it wasn’t cut correctly.

Thank you so very much !

What type of tip?

I have a crescent shaped black rubber seal that came out during the process. And I have no idea where it goes

So where did your actually get the hose at?

Thanks for sharing great video. Appreciate the time you have put in. Just a quick question, where did you got that hose from? And is it little bit less wider than original?

Cool! Thank You!

What size hose do you need & where can you get it

I have a shark deluxe pro vacuum. my hose measures measures slightly over 1/1/4 in diamenter outside edge. Unless the glue is going to help this will not fit. correct>

great video. where can I buy that hose?

for those planning to do the fix: no the hose is "screwed" into ends of the attachments and not actually glued. i was able to unscrew the hose from each attachment and "repair" it with duck tape.

I unscrewed my old hose.

Works for hv301 as well

Same here the new hose looks smaller diam despite being for the NV600

Hello, is the glue really necessary?

Once the cover plate is off, what screws are used? They look like torx but mine do not fit? Proprietary? Any input appreciated.

Has anyone first tried to Krazy glue the split in the duct hose? Any success?

The hose screws in on both sides, not unravels.

3:54 to 3:56 what is man holding on the name.

This does not fit shark hv300. It is to small.

what a crap design,
