Central Vacuum Bags come in all shapes and sizes and we also carry "liners" which are for some bagless central vacuums that allow you the option of lining your debris canister to make the emptying of the canister easier and more hygenic. Shop by brand such as NuTone, Beam, MD, AirVac, Vacuflo, Vacu-Maid, or locate here the specific bag you need. If you don't see exactly what you're looking for, give us a call at 800-221-8227 and we'll help you. If you know your specific bag number or the model number of your central vacuum unit, you can also use our search function to easily find what you're looking for.
Central vacuum system bags come in a variety of forms:
Disposable bags - For bagged central vacuum systems, disposable bags are the quick and most convenient way of disposing of the dirt from your home, systems that use disposable bags brag that they are the preferred choice for allergy suffers that could not tolerate emptying a canister full of dust nor cleaning out a permanent filter.
Semi-Permanent bags - Some central vacuum systems use a reusable bag that collects the dust and debris in a bag but then requires you empty the bag. It's sort of similar to the "shake out" style of commercial vacuum bags from traditional vacuums. It's not permanent in that you will have to replace it every so often.
Inverted Bag Filters - This type of bag is not a bag in the sense that it collects everything picked up by your system. The filter bag is more of a filter (but called a bag) that protects the motor from finer dirt and hair while the larger debris falls into the canister of the unit. Some people choose to use liners which can be used with filtered systems to basically get the same function of a bag even if you use a bagless central vacuum system. This type of system still requires that you periodically clean this filter bag and we have an instructional video in our knowledgebase that shows how to clean an inverted bag filter.
Liners - Central vacuum liners are used with some cyclonic and filtered vacuum systems much like you'd use a trashcan liner. It's not a bag in the sense that the bag is connected to the tubing of your system but rather just like a liner for the debris container to make emptying it easier and more hygenic. It gives the customer the best of both worlds; bagless technology with the convenience and hygiene when emptying the dirt.
