As per my first post, I have large expanses of wood paneling to sand. Specifically, the vertical reach on both sections is 14' and 19' above the floor.  Can the Festool power cords and extractor hosed be linked to extend the reach?
 
The hoses can be connected to one another. Normally, one would use a bigger hose at the CT to improve airflow but with sanding, it shouldn't matter because airflow is generally not an issue.

To join hoses and maintain the antistatic circuit, the hose at the CT gets the tool end removed and replaced with another 50mm diameter CT end, called a Rotating Connector. That CT end and the one on the hose to the tool are joined using an Antistatic Connector Sleeve, 493047.

As far as the cord goes, just use a sufficient gauge extension cord.
