Epic 8000 parts
Mike, if the Renaissance hose parts truly are NLA, you should be able to convert a Renny into a Epic 8000. I would bet the circuit board the Epic 8000 uses should fit into the same place on the Renny....the body is identical except for color and very minor changes. And you should be able to re-use your hose handle and put the handle board and toggle switches in there so you have a cosmetically correct Renny hose.
However, I would call the dealer's bluff, call Aerus corporate to confirm, and if he is indeed lying about the Renny hose parts, report him! An Aerus dealer in Brampton, Ontario, Richard Chadwick, was able to get Renny hose parts as of last year, so I think your dealer is trying to spin you a tall tale to try and get you to buy a new vacuum. | ||

Update: I talked to Bill and he sent out a used top cover from a junk hose and a dusting brush that I also needed for a great price. They were great to deal with. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. | ||

 Good deal! I was going to suggest finding a plastics company (Chinese sellers on AliExpress can do custom prints) or a hobbyist that knows how, to remake a new button sheet. I need one done for my Oreck Radiovac. I am not sure if possibly this could even be done at home with a Cricut printer and some plastic sheeting. | ||
