Installation

Select the Central Vacuum System, power brush and accessories that best suit your home and cleaning needs. For the ultimate in ease, add an automatic dustpan in kitchen, mudroom or bath. We can help you select the right brand and the right model for your size home.

Again, our experts will assist you in this process. For example, in a 3,200 SF home, you will need 5 inlets.

One inlet can serve an area of about 700-800 square feet. In an existing home, the inlet valve should be placed near an electrical outlet to provide electricity to the power brush. Electrified inlet valves are available for new construction.

For more power, the fewer the inlets used the better. And be sure the hose will reach from the inlet valve to all corners (and around furniture) in the rooms you want to vacuum. Do not install inlet valves in a wall where there is a pocket door or behind a door. If you prefer, inlets can be installed in the floor.

It's best if we run the piping under the floor if possible. In structures without basements, the piping may be run through the attic or crawlspaces. In an existing two- or three-story home, vacuum piping may be run to upper levels through cold air ducts, through the back of closets or under stairways, or beside a soil pipe. In new structures, pipe can be run through wall studs before drywall is applied.

Our installation team will install the inlet valves wherever you have designated.

Once the inlet valves are installed, pipe is run either under the flooring or over the crawl space or attic to reach the inlet valves.

 

 

 

The power unit is installed in the garage so all the dust and dirt is collected and transported outside the house.
