A hose clearing apparatus has a cylindrical body, a fluid coupler on the rear side, and a fluid nozzle on the front side. A method of clearing a hose involves coupling a fluid to the fluid coupler, adjusting the fluid nozzle to achieve the desired spray, powering on the vacuum with the hose coupled thereto, inserting the front of the body and accompanying nozzle into the hose, and allowing the hose to traverse through the hose.
