Central vacuums are everything you need foreasy, effective, affordable whole-house cleaning. Engineered to last, its durable construction and powerful motors provide years of cleaning performance.

With a central vacuum system all particles are expelled out of the room and trapped with more than 5 times the power of a conventional upright or canister vacuum. The air quality indoors is healthier and home value increased.

 
 
HEALTH. POWER. CONVENIENCE. EFFICIENCY.
 

Types of Central Vacuum Systems:

  • Cyclonic
  • Cyclonic w/filtration

Cyclonic

  • Cyclonic systems use a cyclonic design to spin the air inside the dirt chamber.  This creates centrifugal force and is an effective way to maintain the airflow of the CVS which is critical to maintaining the cleaning efficiency.  The dirt is thrown to the outside of the dirt chamber and then slides down into the bottom of the container.
  • The downside to a standard cyclonic design is that the smaller dirt particles are not effectively thrown to the outside of the dirt chamber through centrifugal force simply because they weigh less than the larger particles.  These fine dirt particles exit up through the motor and back out into the atmosphere.  Many CVS are vented outdoors for this reason of dirt leakage.  Since the motor(s) is getting dirty, it does not last as long.

Cyclonic w/filtration

A cyclonic design with proper filtration offers the best of both worlds:

  • The cyclonic design maintains cleaning power extremely well
  • The filtration ensures that the air is being cleaned before entering the motor(s) & before being exhausted back into the environment
    • The better units of this design will filter to as small as .1 micron
