PROTECT YOUR CUSTOMER'S WALLS, CORNERS AND TRIM FROM VACUUM AND CARPET CLEANING HOSES.
The Wall Buddy AC18 Hose Corner Guard is a lightweight protective guard designed to help prevent carpet cleaning, restoration, central vacuum and extraction hoses from rubbing against or damaging wall corners, door trim and wall coverings.
Place the guard on an outside wall corner before running your vacuum or solution hoses through the work area. The hose contacts the smooth plastic guard instead of dragging directly across painted drywall, wallpaper, trim or other finished surfaces.

Helps Prevent Expensive Wall Damage
Vacuum hoses and carpet cleaning hoses can place considerable pressure against corners as technicians move through a home or commercial building. Repeated hose movement can scuff paint, damage wallpaper, mark trim or wear through finished wall surfaces.
The Wall Buddy creates a protective barrier between the hose and the customer's property.
- Helps prevent hoses from rubbing against painted wall corners
- Helps protect wallpaper and other wall coverings
- Helps protect doorway trim and molding
- Reduces hose grabbing around sharp corners
- Helps present a more professional image to customers
- Lightweight and easy to carry between jobs
- Non-marking plastic construction

Designed for Professional Carpet Cleaning and Restoration
This type of corner guard is especially useful for technicians running long vacuum and solution hoses from a truckmount or portable extractor through a customer's home or business.
Typical applications include:
- Truckmount carpet cleaning
- Portable carpet extraction
- Water damage restoration
- Air duct cleaning
- Wet / dry vacuum hose protection
- Central vacuum systems
- Commercial cleaning
- Janitorial and building maintenance
How to Use a Hose Corner Guard
Simply position the Wall Buddy over an exposed outside corner before pulling vacuum or cleaning hoses through the area.
The hose then slides against the protective plastic surface instead of directly against the customer's wall.
For carpet cleaners working through several rooms, multiple guards can be positioned throughout the hose path. A minimum of three corner guards is commonly useful for residential carpet cleaning jobs.

Professional Appearance Matters
Using corner guards is a simple way to demonstrate that you are taking precautions to protect the customer's property while cleaning.
For a professional carpet cleaner or restoration contractor, preventing even one damaged or scuffed wall corner can easily justify keeping several hose guards on every service vehicle.
