I'm thinking of running some simple 2 1/2" piping between 2 rooms in my shop (and possibly 2 corners in one room also) to extend the reach of my shop vac and was wondering about wiring for the ability to turn on and off the vac in 2 and possibly 3 locations. I've wired 3 and 4 way lighting before but this involves a motor of course.
I actually have 2 vacs, my first ever shop vac, a 35 year old Sears Craftsman still going strong and a Fein Turbo II. The Craftsman I abuse, The Fein I am very protective of.
Is this doable? Will it damage the motor? The piping would be open ended so I would have the ability to connect whichever vac I wanted and I really don't want to do anything to harm my precious Fein.
