"John was very prompt to respond to our request. He came out to look at our problem. He quickly diagnosed that instead of not working due to a possible lightning strike at our home, we had a clog in our system. He went to all the outlets in our house and made sure all was clear. We will definitely keep Central Vacuum Experts business card in our file for any future needs. I would highly recommend."

"I was very impressed with the owners knowledge of the vacuum system we have and his plan to bring it up to a working order. Unfortunately due to the age of the system we were gonna have to replace the unit completely. We were not prepared to do that at this time. If in the market for a in house vacuum I would not hesitate to call them back."

"If there was a 10 STAR RATING, I would give Zulys Cleaning Service 20 STARS! I am extremely picky and have high expectations (admittedly), and when I say that every time Zulys comes to my home, I am more impressed than the last. Maria and her team are extremely trustworthy, detail-oriented and lovely human beings! I completely trust them with my entire home, my family, and everything I own. If you don't decide to hire them, you're making a big mistake! My family is a huge fan of Maria and her team, as they perform extremely quality work with extreme attention to detail. And, did I mention they're incredible people? I HIGHLY, highly recommend their services!!"

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.

Regular cleaning, sealing, and inspections help identify problems early and maintain aesthetics.

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.

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.

Whether talking about a whole-house central vacuum or a portable vacuum cleaner, the expected cost of major repair work should always be balanced against its replacement cost. However, excluding high-cost motor replacements or major electrical trouble, repairs on a central vacuum system are typically far less than the cost of purchasing and installing a new one.
