"Completely waste of time and money! I asked my wife to call MB Heating and Cooling because of good reviews from folks and we had an issue with water leaking from the condenser unit of the heat pump in the house. I had already taken apart the PVC piping to the drain because it was clogged and used a shop-vac to suck up the water and to suck out the clogged PVC piping. Problem was in putting everything back together - I didn't have the right tools to keep the pipes from leaking and I wanted to be able to maintenance the plumbing periodically so it stays free of clogs in the future. When the MB guy (Elberg, Robert) came out, he looked at the problem and said it needed to be glued to stop from leaking or replace parts of it with compression fittings. I can't believe the guy left WITHOUT FIXING THE PROBLEM and expected full price payment for his opinion. I already knew what the problem was and was willing to pay for this to be fixed! This was completely NOT ACCEPTABLE and I am mad."

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

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.

The disadvantages associated with central vacuums start with cost. They are expensive to install, especially in existing homes, as retrofitting requires opening walls. The system's bulky hoses can also be inconvenient to maneuver and store compared to portable vacuums. Additionally, repairs may need professional service, adding to maintenance costs. Lastly, while powerful, they may be overkill for smaller homes or apartments, making the investment less practical for some households.

For the average-size house, a central vacuum installation usually takes one day of work by a team of professionals. Large houses may take two or more days. But if you are planning on a DIY project, it’s likely to take much longer. We suggest getting a few estimates for a project this big and fully understanding all the requirements before you make a decision about installation. Certain parts of your house may not be usable during the installation, and you may want to make other plans.

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.

Pros

  • Increased suction power

  • Improved air quality

  • Reduced noise pollution

  • Longer lifespan than traditional self-contained vacuum units

Cons

  • Higher upfront installation costs

  • Expensive repairs

  • Requires significant storage space
