Your trick worked, thanks for sharing that 👍 😊

[@MorganTheBuilder]

You’re welcome 👍

[@Sash_Window]

Top tip that.
I've seen the gas lads blowing a cord through with a compressor, either way top work!

[@MorganTheBuilder]

Thanks mate 👍

[@nigelweaving9045]

How neat!

[@MorganTheBuilder]

Thanks mate 👍

Will this work If you suspect water in ducting.

[@MorganTheBuilder]

Yes, but I would suggest using a wet & dry vacuum so that if any water is sucked into the vacuum, it doesn’t damage it

[@the_bloke_that_cuts_the_grass]

Brilliant 😂

[@Suzanna-wh3nr]

would this works over a really long distance?

[@MorganTheBuilder]

Should do, the ducting is essentially a long vacuum hose, so long as it’s sealed proper at the other end it should pull through 👍

[@Suzanna-wh3nr]

@@MorganTheBuilder thank you, may be a stupid question! But why wouldn’t one put the cord in when laying ?

[@MorganTheBuilder]

@@Suzanna-wh3nr they don’t come with the cord in and the ducting is either a big coil or long lengths, it’s just simpler to do it this way afterwards 👍

[@Suzanna-wh3nr]

See was a stupid question lol , needs a business selling pre installed ropes lol

[@MorganTheBuilder]

@@Suzanna-wh3nr not a stupid question at all, if you don’t know then you don’t know. Some ducting does come pre-installed with the cord, just depends on manufacturer I guess 👍

[@CloakedJ24]

That shopvac is not made by Hoover???

[@MorganTheBuilder]

No it’s made by Numatic 👍

[@12347bbc]

How about in an occupied duct?

[@NanoCottage]

A petrol leaf blower works good as well if you are in the field and don't have site power.

[@MorganTheBuilder]

Good suggestion mate 👍

[@myrahouse2368]

I’ve just been told I need a draw rope down my electric ducting too.
