The Hoover Celebrity Canister Muffler (part# 31194005) is a genuine OEM replacement noise-dampening component designed specifically for the Hoover Celebrity canister vacuum series. Located within the motor housing, the muffler absorbs motor exhaust pulses and vibration that would otherwise transmit through the canister body during operation. A worn or deteriorated muffler results in noticeably louder vacuuming and increased vibration — replacing this part restores the quieter operation the Celebrity series was known for.

Constructed from foam and plastic composite materials, this muffler is engineered to fit precisely within the motor cavity of the Celebrity canister. The foam element absorbs airborne exhaust noise while the plastic housing maintains proper positioning against the motor. OEM specification ensures the correct density and dimensional tolerances for an airtight fit — aftermarket alternatives often lack the precise foam density needed for effective noise suppression.

This muffler is specifically designed for the Hoover Celebrity S3005 canister series including models S3005, S3005-001, S3005-020, S3005-030, S3159, and S3167. Installation is straightforward — the muffler seats directly into the motor housing without tools. Please note this part has been discontinued by Hoover and stock is limited. If you have a Celebrity canister in need of this repair, ordering promptly is recommended.
