"Had all the things to fix our wall inlet plates that were cut off by our remodelers. He also installed extensions so that the inlets could reach the vacuum pipe behind the new wainscoting. Alex is a friendly, knowledgeable professional who goes above and beyond. Would definitely hire him again for future central vac needs!"
"Jeremy saved me a lot of money by managing to install a second strap in the existing water heater. A contractor had installed the heater with only one strap when he had access to the back wall. Now, when there will be an inspection for the house sale, I saw that there didn't appear to be any room in the tiny closet containing the heater to get back to the wall to install the second strap. A plumbing outfit said the heater would have to be drained of water and removed. Jeremy, who is quite strong, managed to move the 75 gallon heater enough so that he could access the rear using a twenty inch extension on the drill bit. He did everything well and was a pleasure to deal with.,"

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts
Experienced professionals don’t usually need to take down drywall to install the central vacuum. They are experienced in working in the tight spaces between walls and in crawl spaces to minimize any damage. The only drywall changes should be the holes cut for the new outlets. However, home design, existing plumbing, and other factors may require some modification. An estimate from a professional contractor should include information if any changes need to be made.
Before deciding whether or not to install a central vacuum system, consider the pros and cons to determine if it’s right for you.

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.
No. Only the hose or the attachments are portable in a central vacuum system. A portable vacuum is a standalone model like a stick, canister, or upright. A central vacuum system is defined by a central power unit, which is installed in one place like an AC unit, and the connected network of piping to funnel the suction.
The cost to install a central vacuum cleaner system averages about $1,600, ranging from $1,100 to $2,200, depending on the size of the system, add-on features, your home’s location, and age of the system.
