Central Vacuum Systems Increase Cleanliness and Convenience
Is a central vacuum system right for you? We know that vacuuming can be a pain, plus it’s very noisy, inconvenient, and can be costly when you find yourself having to buy a new one every few years. Portable vacuums are usually heavy, stinky, and full of bacteria, pet dander, and human skin follicles. And all too often, they leave you wondering how clean your carpet really is.
Installing a central vacuum is the answer. So why haven’t more people installed them? Many just aren’t aware that central vacuums are even an option, and there are many misconceptions about how they work. Major brand name vacuum manufacturers make more money selling portable vacuum cleaners at more regular intervals than selling their central vacuum systems, so they focus their marketing efforts on portables.
Probably one of the most common misunderstandings, when it comes central vacuums, is that installing a system into an existing home requires a major renovation and even removing some walls. This simply is not the case at all, the only hole required is covered with the vacuum outlet and backing plate. The pipes are usually fed through an attic or crawlspace. But here are more reasons to consider installing a central vacuum in your home.
