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 emptying of the paper bag 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.

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.

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.
