I’m sure this has been asked about a million times, but here goes. I’ve done soooo much to control dust collection in my shop, but I think I must be doing something wrong because I have dust, (not a little but a lot) My shop is 1/2 of a 2 car garage. I have a Laguna C Flux 1.5 HP dust collector. I have a 4 inch hose lying on the floor that goes to my table saw, miter saw and bandsaw. Everything else is being collected by a rigid shop vac. So my question is this, should I run pvc piping to these machines? Or is the hose laying on the floor good enough? I do have gates on the machines and wonder if I should leave them all open, or only open the one I’m going to use..?

Recently I've been helping my nephew make a bunch of cutting boards to help fund his first semester in college. Basically a lot of tablesaw, jointer, and surface planer work. During the midst of it all the dust collector just quit working all of a sudden. I did basic troubleshooting. The unit powers on but there is no suction. There are no clogs. It's not full. No obvious leaks or tears in the hoses. Could it be the impeller? Very similar to this model.... https://www.rockler.com/dust-right-reg-wall-mount-dust-collector-650-cfm .40
