Rescuing an almost new Henry, Full of water, Loss of suction: simple repair!

[@Creamy-Dreamz]

Shows how robust the Henry hoovers are.... ty for saving Henry

[@rw8074]

Wow you're right that really is new! Serial No. Year 2021. The taped hose is a newish thing on these machines; apparently they did tests to show the lesser resistance near the appliance end improves airflow.. Every little helps when the motors are reduced in wattage to try to save electricity. Either way you got to rescue a super new Henry! 👍👍👍

Wow that’s 2021 Henry, that’s quite new

[@richardbutler4488]

Henry was really sucking it up 😮 🎉❤

[@bootsowen]

Hadn't thought of that, filthy Henry, no wonder he was banished to the streets. He'll be in the borstal soon!

[@cirebyte7588]

Great find right enough, good little henry for free!

[@tommyhanlon8012]

Conical hose fitted to compensate the lower wattage motors. They're exploiting the Venturi effect. (Like a carburettor) Mr.B. isn't it Bernoulli's principal ?

[@bootsowen]

Good old science, if it wasn't for the EU and their straight bananas and their limits on the wattage on vacuum cleaner motors we wouldn't even have had to think of this. It has to be a trade off, the point of greatest constriction is where the gas travels fastest, so at the point where the hose is widest the gas must be slowest. Maybe that saves the bags from excessive wear?

[@tommyhanlon8012]

@@bootsowen yea, the more negative pressure at the business end with less watts of power to achieve it.

[@Retro_andy_1977]

Had a brand new henry then sold him....wish I haven't Mind you I have had a lof used Henry's since Awesome lucky find !!!!!

[@colinblick4903]

Ye I picked one up on the street It had a duster jammed in it….. sorted😎👍🏼

[@RJA_World]

It's crazy what people throw out

[@bootsowen]

It's a downright disaster!

[@lewisner]

Maybe they are under 24 ? Many young people are clueless about anything that isn't on TikTok.

[@vacuum_collector26]

Wow that was made in November 2021 very new indeed weird how it has already been thrown

[@bootsowen]

I thought it might be younger, but there you go, very little use!

[@HarryWinter-kl3vc]

The newer Henry’s really aren’t made how they used to be 😢

[@kieransvacs4545]

the mind boggles seeing videos like this I’m used to seeing you have to actually repair them even then it’s usally the easiest of things 😂

[@johnledwood]

Great find. Maybe they forgot to take it in after doing some outdoor hoovering?

[@bootsowen]

Could be, but I think they left it out by the bins because they thought it was broken

[@johnwhite1608]

did it cut out after 10-15 minutes?

[@markcumbriauk]

Damn, Great find. Why would anyone throw away a virtually new Henry?.

[@lewisner]

Somebody mentioned how much these cost in the States and I looked it up a basic Henry is 500 dollars.

[@Maxwasinthe212]

It's the newest henry

[@bootsowen]

Wow, magic find!

[@funkanic06]

Hello mate I hoovered up sum water from my car carpets and now my Henry no longer powers on, any chance u can help me recover my Henry?

[@bootsowen]

Open it up and dry it out? or have a look at the video in my numatic playlist where I refurb a yellow one that was wet.

[@rolldeep786]

Hi. Did your Henry start working? I've just done the same thing ffs!!

[@Kubulek17]

Common sense isn’t so common amongst people. They throw out anything due to user error then complain about “quality”

[@bootsowen]

Quality’s very rare these days.

[@colinmeredith7114]

If you want to improve the suction of a "Henry" vacuum cleaner then convert it to 38mm hose and tools; don't forget to spray the bag/filter with something pleasant or place a *smelly* under the bag. To improve the reel-wind and cable you can clean it all with silicone polish which will really make it reel and unreel very smoothly...don't forget the small reel-wheels.

[@peteturner8493]

So you wash the air filters that say don't wash on the label...?

[@bootsowen]

what label?

[@peteturner8493]

​@@bootsowen The label usually around the black rubber part,because of the paper content I suspect of these filters.

[@bootsowen]

Straight in the washing machine

[@peteturner8493]

@@bootsowen Can a Henry filter be washed? The filter should be brushed off during each bag change to get the maximum lifespan from it. This filter is not washable! I guess that didn't have you in mind when they made these lol.

[@bootsowen]

Putting it in the Washing machine gets it clean.

[@kellywoo77]

Bootsowen can you for now on can you take footage of all the hoovers in the future

[@bootsowen]

What do you mean?

[@kellywoo77]

I mean can you do a video of when you find a vacuum in the trash

[@fatimabegum1]

Ns away just because it doesn't suck

[@loislincoln1697]

They threw it away cos it was blocked and couldn't b bothered unblocking it.

[@carljanisewski]

The world has gone mad !! Just another example of the throw away world 🙁

[@bootsowen]

at least I saved it.

[@carljanisewski]

Indeed well done a person like myself 😃

[@fatimabegum1]

people throw dyso

[@SMEGMA1997]

people are stupid they throw away vacuums just for the fact its blocked instead of unblocking them they throw them away if a vacuum is not picking up its either blocked or the filters are clogged with so much dust they air can not pass through the filter witch will cause the motor to overheat and cut out my mums dyson dc40 was not picking up and its becasue the change valve was split once i changed it for a new one works fine again but if i had not fixed it my mother would have thrown it out the only time you should ever throw a vacuum out is if it blows up like sparks and flames come out of it but even then thats a sign the brushs have gone and new brushs are only a couple of pounds to replace
