Genuine Lindhaus Base Housing 30(12′) (part# 088181281) — item #1 on the Lindhaus LW30 parts diagram. Fits Lindhaus LW30. In stock at Twin City Vacuum, Crystal MN — call 763-535-0770.
The base housing (part# 088181281) is the genuine Lindhaus OEM main body that forms the 12-inch (30 cm) cleaning head of the LW30 upright. This base housing is the structural shell that carries the brushroll, brush motor, transmission, and wheels, and it shapes the airflow path from the floor into the suction system. Because nearly every moving part of the nozzle mounts to it, a sound base housing is essential to how the machine cleans and rolls.
Compatible Models for the Base Housing
This base housing fits Lindhaus LW30, Lindhaus LW30 L-ion. The 12-inch (30 cm) 088181281 shell is specific to the 30-size machines, so it serves both the corded LW30 and the cordless LW30 L-ion, which share the same nozzle width.
When to Replace the Base Housing
The shell is durable, but drops, stair falls, and years of heavy use can crack the plastic around the brushroll opening or split the bosses that anchor the transmission and wheels. Replace the base housing if you see cracks or warping, if the brushroll or wheels no longer sit square, or if you notice new rattles, air leaks, or reduced pickup that trace back to a loose or broken shell rather than a worn belt or brush. Rebuilding onto a fresh 088181281 body restores the correct geometry so every other part fits and performs as designed.
This is a full rebuild-grade part: transfer the brushroll, motor, transmission, wheels, and cover to the new shell. Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing Lindhaus equipment since 1956, and we stock genuine Lindhaus parts so your LW30 lasts.

Base Housing — Frequently Asked Questions
What does the base housing do on the Lindhaus LW30?
Part# 088181281 is the main 12-inch (30 cm) plastic body of the LW30 cleaning head. It holds the brushroll, brush motor, transmission, and wheels in alignment and forms the airflow path from the floor into the suction system, so it is the structural core the whole nozzle is built on.
How do I know if my base housing needs replacing?
Replace it if the 088181281 shell is cracked, warped, or broken around the brushroll opening or the mounting bosses, if wheels or the transmission no longer seat securely, or if it was damaged in a fall.
