Built in & Central Vacuum Installation

BENEFITS OF ADDING A CENTRAL VACUUM SYSTEM TO YOUR HOME

Portable vacuum cleaners can be heavy and unwieldy, and cordless “stick vacuums” lack the power and runtime to clean thoroughly. Plus, all portable vacuum cleaners blow their exhaust, with odors and residual dust, right back into the room.

Central vacuum systems are more hygienic and longer lasting than common home vacuums, and build value into your home. But that is just the beginning of what a central vacuum can do for you.

Built-In Value

Think of how long a portable vacuum cleaner lasts nowadays. Sadly, many are considered “throwaway” units that end up in a landfill after just a few years. They are designed to be replaced, not repaired.

In comparison, a central vacuum system will continue to provide value for as long as you live in your home. We routinely service built-in vacuum systems that have been in operation for thirty years or more. How many upright, canister, or stick vacuums would that homeowner have gone through?

According to the environmental protection agency, “the air inside your home can be more polluted than the outside air of most industrialized cities”.

Attack the harmful allergens and irritants with a central vacuum system.

A study conducted by the University of California Davis school of medicine study shows using a central vacuum system can greatly reduce allergy and asthma symptoms.

• Allergy related eye symptoms: 61% improvement
• Allergy related nasal symptoms: 47% improvement
• Sleep quality improved by 44%

 

More power with less hassle than a portable. Superior cleaning in less time… and much, much more.

Since the main power unit of a built-in vacuum system is stationary, it can have a larger debris capacity and a more powerful motor than possible with an upright or canister that you move around the house with you. In fact, central vacuums have 2-5x the power of portables! Dirt capacity of 8 gallons or more means you only need to empty once or twice a year…perfect for multi-pet households.

Minimal Vacuum Noise
Coexist with vacuuming when you have a central vacuum.

Most people are familiar with the loud noise caused by portable vacuums. Talking on the phone, sleeping, and watching television are all next to impossible when a person is vacuuming. With a central vacuum, you'll be amazed at how quiet they are. The main source of the noise, the motor, is located in the garage or basement, so the only noise comes from the air flowing through the vacuum and the vacuum head itself.

Easy to Use
Say goodbye to hauling around a heavy canister or upright vacuum.

In place of the bulky body of a self-contained portable vacuum, the central vacuum system has a lightweight cleaning hose and a set of versatile tools to enable you to reach all parts of your home. The hose is either stored on a hanger in the closet when not in use, or, with a retractable hose system, it puts itself away, disappearing in seconds to within the wall port, ready for use again.

Cleaner House, Cleaner Air
Central Vacs are Proven to Reduce Allergies

Central vacuum owners often remark how much cleaner the air is inside their homes, and allergy sufferers typically notice a reduction in their allergies. UC Davis actually did a study UC Davis Central Vacuum Clinical Study (PDF), that central vacuums do in fact keep the air cleaner than portable vacuums. A portable upright or canister vacuum cleaner inherently is unable to exhaust anywhere besides the space being vacuumed, and despite even better filtration methods (such as HEPA), odors and very fine dust and allergens can still escape. Central vacuum systems are the only option which removes 100% of contacted dirt, dust and allergens from the living space, collecting them in a large filtration chamber and discharging the exhaust outside the living space.

Powerful Cleaning
2X-5X Stronger than Portable Vacuums

The main power unit, permanently wall-mounted in an out-of-the-way area in the home, contains a large, strong, long-lasting motor and generous debris capacity. This means the suction power starts out strong and stays strong even when months of dirt and dust are inside the filtration chamber. The intense cleaning power of a built-in vacuum system means cleaning is done faster and more thoroughly than otherwise possible.

Add Value to Your Home Instantly
Installing a Central Vacuum is a Wise Investment in Your Home

Central vacuums save money over time and add value to your property, because the money spent on the installation will come back when the property is sold. They also last much longer than portable vacuums which need to be replaced every few years. Central vacuum owners can usually go ten years before having to replace major accessories or worry about maintenance.
