What is a Central Vacuum?

A central vacuum system, also known as a built-in vacuum, is the modern way to clean your home or business. It has four basic components:
  • A power/collection unit usually installed in a garage or storage space.
  • PVC tubing, installed inside walls and/or floors, connecting the power unit to the inlet valves.
  • Inlet valves strategically located throughout the building.
  • Vacuum hose and attachments. The lightweight hose, usually 30 or 35 feet long, connects to an inlet valve and various vacuuming attachments to provide far reaching cleaning. Three inlets can easily cover an entire 2,200 square foot home and garage.

Why a built-in vacuum?

Today's homes, with all their advanced technology, continue to get dirty and dusty. The central (or built-in) vacuum can make total house cleaning less of a chore and more efficient.

 

Powerful Cleaning

Its powerful motor and large air flow allow the central vacuum to pick up deep-down dirt, dust, and debris, even microscopic particles like pollen, mold spores, and dust mites.

 

Convenience
No heavy equipment to haul around or maneuver around furniture and up the stairs. No cords caught on table legs. The lightweight hose and attachments are all you'll need. Conveniently placed inlets allow quick and convenient cleaning of the entire house.


Improved Indoor Air Quality
Because a central vacuum pulls dust and dirt out of living areas, it is not recirculated in the air. The tiniest or particles are whisked away to the power unit located in a garage, basement or storage area and exhaust vented outside.
