Customers say: Quick response

"It is rare that I come across a contractor that is worthy of an all-around 5-star review, but Tom Dodge absolutely deserves that distinction. Tom efficiently installed a central vac system in my existing home over two days with surprisingly little disruption or construction intrusion. I found him to be prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and easy to work with in addressing my concerns and requirements. Tom is an honest, hard-working, hands-on, conscientious professional who does all of the installation work himself. I am very pleased with the installation and functionality of the retractable hose system. I highly recommend the system and am very satisfied that I hired Tom Dodge for the installation."

"I thought Justin was wonderful. He came quickly, diagnosed the problem and fixed my machine the next day. He didn�t charge me for the first service call. He put in a new motor thereby saving me money of buying a whole new central vacuum. I had to pay someone before him just to come and look but I decided I didn�t think this first guy knew exactly what he was doing and his repair seemed too complicated. Through your service, I find Superior Vacuum and was very happy."

The technician, William, who installed our system informed us of all work prior to beginning and left all areas clean upon finishing. We are more than pleased with their service and recommend C.M.W. products and services."

"We had a very unique location in our basement and wanted a barn door. Since the location was not typical a significant amount of thought had to go into hanging and sealing the door gap. William came up with a plan and installed and painted the door. We also needed hardware installed on the door. The team did EXCELLENT work and I would hire them again. At times the team was not the easiest to connect with and they were late once. However, I am very satisfied with the work and the price was competitive."

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

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

A central vacuum system can be a worthwhile investment depending on your needs and budget. While the upfront cost is higher than a traditional vacuum cleaner, it offers significant long-term benefits. These systems can save you time and make cleaning your home easier, as you only need to carry the hose and vacuum head, eliminating the need to lug a heavy unit up and down stairs. They also tend to operate more quietly and can improve indoor air quality. The convenience and performance over many years may make it a valuable addition to your home if you can budget for the initial installation.

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.

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.

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.
