"George was excellent. The fix was much simpler than expected and took about 10 minutes. George then reduced the quoted price from $125 to just $75 which I thought to be extremely fair. He also told me how to fix the issue the next time. I highly recommend Built-in-Vacuum System for any central vacuum needs."

"I have owned a central vac system since I purchased my home 13 years ago. I use it weekly, but am a novice when it comes to maintenance because I have not experienced any problems in all this time. When my system suddenly stopped suctioning, Albert spent what I felt was quite a bit of time educating me on not only my system but on central vac systems in general. A technician was scheduled at a convenient time. Reno was very knowledgeable and quickly discovered and corrected the problem. He gave my equipment a quick tune up. I highly recommend J.G. Manzi and would call again."

"The visit went so well. The plumber was friendly, relaxed, respectful and did a great job. While visiting it was clear that we needed some extra plumbing fixtures, which I was able to purchase while he was working. He completed the job with the plumbing system and related faucet working great."

"Initially I felt that the repairs were excellent, liked the colors they chose which matched the house colors and brightened things up.Later, I noticed that some of the boards on the back stairs were cracking and that the boards were not cut evenly.  I called Jorge (who was my contact at that time) and informed him what had happened.  He sounded not interested, did not want anymore information.  No one came to investigate.  I waited a few months and called the company back and spoke with Johnny who informed me that Jorge did not work there anymore.  I discussed with Johnny what had happened and he informed me that there would be someone to come and look at the stairs, etc.  Within one week a company supervisor came by to survey the job and reported that that's not how we do things.  Last week they came by and fixed the stairs etc.  Now everything looks great.  It was a pleasure to work with Johnny and perhaps I may do business with them again, but not in the immediate future. The grades on this review reflect the current people with the company not the ones who originally did the work."

Central Vacuum Systems questions, answered by experts

Maintaining your central vacuum cleaner is crucial to extending its lifespan. Ensuring the filter is cleaned or changed often is vital to ensuring clogs don’t impact your motor. In addition, inspecting motor brushes regularly and lubricating the engine when needed helps keep it in tip-top shape. Finally, cleaning the central vacuum hose of dirt and debris helps keep clogs at bay, especially if you’ve vacuumed something wet or sticky.

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.

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

If your central vacuum has lost suction, you probably have a clog in the system. You can remove a clog yourself using a portable vacuum cleaner or central vacuum maintenance sheets. Stubborn clogs or damage to the system require a specialized technician to repair.

The best way to clean central vacuum pipes is to use a maintenance sheet to dislodge clogs and wipe the inside of the pipes clean. Alternatively, a professional can clean your central vacuum pipes for you.
