Hi,
My fathers dc24 ball animal only has suction from the hose instead of the floor head.
Does anyone know if this can be fixed or do I need to have it repaired?
Thank you.

Hi
If I remember correctly, our old family DC25 Multi-Floor had the exactly same issue. More than once.
It was usually caused by something stuck in the change valve at the base of the hose. This usually being a sock or one of the kids toys.
Inspect and remove whatever is in there. It should fix itself as soon as you have.
Good luck.

Hi,
We have just returned and it was caused by a sock. It was sticking right out of the hatch.
As soon as it was removed, the hatch clicked closed and the suction came back.
fixed. Thank you!

A cracking explanation kev!
Yeah, nope.
I just received my brand new Ball Animal 3 with this issue. Nothing stuck anywhere, no support could steer me in the right direction. Now I have to box it up and send it back after an hour of unboxing. Garbage, overpriced, overhyped, garbage. Go with a more well reviewed brand.
Hi
Let’s see if there is something else we can do to help, other than directing you to the online support and troubleshooting section for your machine.
It is possible that on your model, the internal hose has become loose and therefore the suction is not reaching the base of the machine. The second thought would be that the change over valve has not switched into the downward position.
A few quick steps will help identify if either of these are the cause:

If it’s something that can be fixed, you should pick up what it is! If not, you’ll need a repair.
