Help, clogged central vac...

[zoolander]

Dumbass I am vacuumed up a broken glass, I think some of it is clogged in the system as it is definitely not in the hose.

The receiver I used is a short run to the canister in the garage, probably 15-20 feet.
Any ideas on what to use to snake it free?

My wife's going to kill me :lol:

I can only imagine a peice getting stuck in an elbow (90 or 45). If so, I don't think a snake is going to help you much. If accessable, then you're better off cutting the elbow and replacing it.

A snake can get stuck and cause you more trouble than you already have. So use it as a last resort.

But yes, cutting out the elbow and replacing it is the best option.

hmmm... if you have a way to get at the elbow with something "solid" you might be able to break the glass into smaller pieces allowing them to get sucked through... A snake won'te be strong enough though.
