Components of a Central Vacuum System

The Central Vacuum Power Unit: The central vacuum motor and dirt canister are contained as one unit that is separated for cleaning the cyclonic filter and emptying the dirt within the dirt canister portion of the unit. This unit can be stored in the garage or other location away from your central living area. Units come with a special mounting bracket to make installation easy.

Central Vacuum Inlets: Depending on the size of your home and the length hose you choose, these inlets will be installed in your walls at various locations. When the end of the hose is inserted to the inlet, the power unit automatically turns on so you can start vacuuming immediately. Inlets come in a variety of attractive styles to go with the decor of your home like polished brass, etc. We have information on our website to help you plan the number of inlets you need for your home. Check out this article.

Vacu-Maid Inlet

Central Vacuum Piping: Piping can be either standard central vacuum piping or schedule 40 plumbers piping along with special adaptors we sell. Using Schedule 40 piping allows you to purchase the piping for the job at your local hardware store. You can check out our DIY Knowledgebase article that discuss the considerations of which type of piping you choose.

Vacu-Maid Piping

Central Vacuum Sweep Inlets: You can choose to install a special type of inlet in your home that can be used for sweeping dirt directly into the system. These sweep inlets located floor level at the base of a cabinet or wall are great for when you want to do quick cleanups in a highly trafficked area like a kitchen without pulling out the hose and attachments. You can just activate the central vacuum system when you open the inlet to push dirt into it.

Vacu-Maid Sweep Inlets

There are lots of options these days and your choice depends on your needs. In addition to the hose, tools and powerhead that comes with your attachments, be sure to consider things like; do I want a garage tool kit too? Do I need tools for grooming my pet? Do I want a hand held revolving brush powerhead for cleaning stairs and the cars? Do I want the Holster Vac for cleaning the work bench area? The options are endless so look at what's available under Central Vacuum accessories or give us a call and let us help you choose the right kit for your needs.

This unit surpassed all my expectations upon installation. I'm not sure why anyone would choose a conventional vac when this one can out perform any I ever used before. Sorry I put off my purchase so long now.

Needed to replace discontinued CV-750 in 2-story 4000 sq ft home with full basement. We have many pets. Animal hair and cat litter would fill 750 bag in 2-3 weeks. The VX-550 would have been the nearest replacement, but decided to go for more power. Had some leftover pipe, recutting, adjusting, mounting and electric upgrade was under 3 hours. If your house is 4,000 sq ft or more go for the VX1000, you will be happy you spent the extra bucks plus longer warranty. If you have lots of pets get the bagless.
