If you already have these straight suction hoses for your Electrolux 88 & 89, what you can do is buy a set of cord straps & a Rainbow Outboard Cord, for the D4 model. That gives you a hose cord with a plug on one end & a receptacle on the other. The other option you could do, if you know how to repair stuff yourself, is if your 89 hose has the plastic machine end & pigtail cord, you can buy a genuine Electrolux plastic canister hose, take off it's machine end, & transplant the 89 end onto your new hose, in essence making a new hose for your vacuum.
I have linked the parts for the cord straps & Rainbow Outboard Cord if you decide to give the first option a try. Hope this helps you out. Rob www.goodvac.com/AFT_Cord_Strap_fo... www.goodvac.com/Aftermarket_exten... |

Hey Drew
Thank you. I've put quite a bit of work into the site. It makes a good reference. If you check with the vacuum shops they can get ivory hose cords. The red / white powernozzle was a PN1. The lime green one (same style) was the PN 2. The Lime green Powernozzle with the elbow that could be put straight up was the PN 3 and the Dark green powernozzle was the PN 4. |

Paul, the motors used in the Canadian Electrolux 80-series were NOT the same motors as the American Electrolux Model G used. The 80-series motor was a 5.0-amp, double stage motor produced at Electrolux Canada's plant in Pointe Claire, Quebec. When you compare it to the power a Model G produces, the 80-series is a LOT more powerful in comparison, & when put on a waterlift gauge usually pulls about 80" Waterlift. That same motor was modified for use in the 1970's in the AP100, 200 & 280, & modified once again in the early 1980's for the E2000. I personally feel that motor used in the 80-series is one of the best double-stage canister motors ever produced....nearly impossible to kill that motor!
And no, Electrolux Canada never did produce a "Hospital G" like version of the 80-series....there was no need for it. The 80-series, when first introduced, did have a rather thick after filter. |

Yep Rob is quite correct. The Canadian Electrolux's all had the exhaust filter built in, while it was removed from the machines in the US after the model AE. Speaking of use in hospitals, our hospital here used a model 89 for years to clean the main waiting area (It was one of the few sections with carpet)
Ron - no the Canadian Hose connection is totally different from the US hose connection. |

Doug, My manual lists two different filters: the Elux Air Purifying filter, and the Diffusor. |
