Vacuum parts - where to buy?

the hose for our central vac broke, need to find a replacement. I'm not even sure where to start. Searched online and can't find parts for BEAM vac's -- looking for any local shops I can go to get some info/buy..

Trade-Ur-Vac Vacuum Parts & Repairs - Vancouver, BC

This is where i went last time (October 2011). Old guy seemed very knowledgeable, knew what the problem was right away and was familier with my older style vacuum. Price seemed fair (though I had only called a couple of shops).

Give them a call for yourself

I recall seeing a place that sells Beam vacuums on Marine Drive. I think this is the place:

Best Security, Best Beam Vaccuums, Best Security Systems Vancouver, BC

I've also been to a place on Main St. that repairs vacuums. This one: All Vacuum Store The - 4673 Main St, Vancouver, BC

KFC/CanadianTire/Mcdonalds side or Pho Bitch Nigga side?
