Q:
How Does A Central Vacuum System Work?
A: To create
lightweight, powerful cleaning, better air quality and less noise,
the central vacuum unit is typically located in the basement or
garage, and is connected to convenient inlets throughout the home
via vacuum tubing. Plug the hose into an inlet and the system is
turned on with a switch on the hose handle. Particles are completely
removed from living areas and collected in the power unit's dirt
receptacle.

Q: How Does A Central Vacuum System Improve Indoor
Air Quality?
A: Unlike upright
and canister vacuums, a central vacuum system, with its dirt receptacle
located in the garage or basement, does not exhaust dirty, allergen-laden
air back into the living areas. With up to five times more suction
power, a central vacuum system removes far more dust, debris and
allergy-causing particles. It's a must in tightly insulated houses
and homes where small children and allergy sufferers are present.

Q: Is The Hose Easy To Use?
A: Central Vacuum
hoses are extremely lightweight and designed for whole-house cleaning
from floor to ceiling. Unlike short, flimsy hoses found on portable
vacuums, crushproof hoses are created to withstand everyday kinks
and twists.

Q: Is The Suction Power Maintained Throughout
The Home?
A: Yes! A properly
installed Central Vacuum System offers the same powerful cleaning
performance at every inlet whatever the distance from the power
unit.

Q: How Do I Maintain A Central Vacuum System?
A: Central Vacuum
Systems are practically maintenance free. No lubrication or cleaning
is ever required. All you need to do is take a few moments to clean
the filter, and to empty the dirt receptacle two or three times
a year.

Q: How Many Inlets Are Needed?
A: Most homes
require only three to five inlets to reach every area with the hose
and attachments. Each strategically located inlet lets you vacuum
approximately 700-800 square feet.

Q: Can I Use The System To Clean Hardwood, Vinyl,
or Ceramic Tile Floors?
A: Yes! Use
the bare floor tool or install one of our most popular options:
the VacPan® automatic dustpan. It's ideal for removing debris
from the kitchen, bath, or mudroom. Simply sweep trash towards the
automatic dustpan, touch the toeswitch and use the power of your
Central Vacuum System to instantly remove it. No more dustpans or
stooping over to pick up swept debris.
