"The technician was thorough and very knowledgeable about the system. He quickly diagnosed the issue with a clogged filter. Using a combination of dry towels and the new filter, he was able to get the system running. He also repaired an inlet, tested the full system and provided useful tips on maintenance. Definite hire for central vac repairs."

"Glenn Griffin is very responsive and professional. He scheduled his technical specialist, Kevin Trimbach, to come service our central vac system at our convenience. Kevin was on time for our appointment and got right to work to competently trouble-shoot the system. We needed a new power unit for our 16-year old system as the components that had gone bad are no longer in production. Kevin had a new unit in his van, put it in and tested it thoroughly. It works great! We appreciate the professionalism and excellent service we received from both Glenn at Aerus Electrolux and Kevin of Affordable Home Enhancements."

Central Vacuum Systems questions, answered by experts

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.

It can be difficult to know right away if your central vacuum is clogged since it operates quietly compared to regular vacuums. However, there are a couple of signs you can look for. If you feel like it’s losing suction or isn’t cleaning effectively, then there’s likely a clog somewhere. 

Make sure you turn the vacuum on and feel the end of the hose handle. If you don’t feel any suction, then you’re dealing with a clog in the hose. You can see if the clog is further down in the system by attaching the hose to each outlet until you find the one with the least amount of suction.

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
