In case you are considering this for your home, let me tell you a bit more about having a central vacuum installed by Modern Day. With this new retractable system, John only needed to put in one outlet that will allow the vacuum to reach everywhere in our 2 story house. No damage to the wall with the outlet. The vacuum canister holds a load of dirt and fur so you don't have to change the bag very often - even with our furry dog, we need to change it only a couple of times a year. Another great feature with the central vacuum is the "dust pan" in the kitchen. Hidden under the kitchen cabinet in the toekick space is the "dust pan". You just sweep the dirt on the floor toward the dust pan, give the door a push with your foot, and a powerful suction sucks all the debris into the unit. Push the door closed and you're done.
During the time that our vacuum was not working, I had to resort to an older upright vacuum. I had forgotten how much harder it was to push it around and how much more I had to work to get the dirt up.
So, if you are even remotely considering a central vacuum or replacing an older unit, call John at Modern Day of the Bay. He is professional, responsive, and does superior work. This is a great addition to your home and will save a lot of time and pain when vacuuming.
My only negative comment was that it was too hard to find him! I was used to MD Central Vacuum or just Modern Day Built-In Vacuum. But it was worth tracking him down!
