"Sam arrived on time and was courteous. He asked about the job and seemed surprised by our work request even though we had called the office in advance to make sure that they would clean both our vents and our dryer vent for $199, or I would cancel. I told Sam that I'd cancel if he couldn't follow thru and  he said he'd call the office to verify what I was telling him. He called the office and then said that I had spoken to David and that's why he wasn't clear. David had told me to schedule the work anyway and that they would do the job for $199, but I guess he didn't tell Sam or put that on the work order. Sam then got to work.  His clothes were pretty dirty because he came from a chimney job. I was concerned about the air hose that he was using to blow all of the debris through the vents down to the main. The hose was going through the house to the third floor and was going on our carpet, but it didn't seem to be an issue. Sam took his shoes off before going on to the carpet. We vacuumed and cleaned the carpet & wood floors after the job.  According to Sam, our vents were pretty much clean anyway. Our dryer vent, on the other hand was really bad. I'm glad that we had them come out.

"I wanted to update my last review of BluRay HVAC, but there's no provision to do change it here on Angie's List that I can see. So, I'd like to apologize to Matt & Sam at BluRay for not being able to change my last review. Here's my latest review: Matt returned to my rental property at the time we had previously discussed earlier in the morning. He called me from there to thoroughly go over the issue the furnace was having. He ended up cleaning the flame sensor, and now the furnace is working fine. The only reason I am not giving a perfect rating, is because I don't like that some companies, including BluRay, now charge everyone an expensive service fee just to say hi. A lot of these companies started charging these fees when gas prices went up a few years back, but the price of gas has come down now, but the fees are still being charged to customers. But, I appreciate the good work that BluRay did for me on their return visit. Thank you very much, Sam & Matt!"

"Rob helped me identify issues with my gutters, which were 'brand new' with the home purchase but poorly installed, so I had water overflow in several areas. I've worked with Rob in the past and know the quality of his work is great and he also does his best to help keep you within a reasonable budget. He and the team were punctual and efficient so they managed to leave earlier than expected. They replaced all of my gutters and also added gutter-guards for a reasonable price; they look great and are a huge improvement over the original gutters, as they've done well with some recent downpours we've had. Thanks again for a job well done!"

"It was difficult getting Roger into Manhattan.  He wasn't prepared to bring his vehicle and supplies into Manhattan.  My first appointment had to be rescheduled because he wasn't sure about parking.  He had someone wait in the vehicle and he came up and I showed him the  projects I needed to get done.  He was apologetic but after waiting around for him all afternoon it was very inconvenient to have to reschedule.   While he was there he suggested that I mount my TV which I hadn't been planning to do but it was a good idea.  He thought that if I wanted to buy the mount he could do it in addition to my other projects.
After much going back and forth and resending of my address, Roger arrived for our rescheduled appointment.  He came by train so he didn't bring his supplies.  My project list included: installing bathroom door handle, checking why my ceiling fan wasn't working and installing the TV mount.  He was able to get the door handle installed and the TV mount.  Because he didn't have his full tool bag  he didn't have the circuit tester.  So he was unable to get the ceiling fan working.
Before leaving, I showed him my kitchen because in the future I wanted to put down new floor tiles and a backsplash.  He suggested a new countertop and said he would bring by samples but I have never heard from him again.
He did a good job installing the door handle and the TV but I felt he did not come prepared to do the ceiling fan. This was an Angie's deal so the price was good.  I think that was also why he was overbooked and having trouble keeping up with appointments.

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a central vacuum cleaner system averages about $1,600, ranging from $1,100 to $2,200, depending on the size of the system, add-on features, your home’s location, and age of the system. Accessibility to running lines and other equipment can also impact the project cost. Consult a central vacuum cleaner installation company for an accurate estimate of your installation cost.

Technically, yes, you could install a central vacuum system on your own, but it is a very difficult DIY. There is a significant amount of planning, cutting into walls, and electrical wiring work that goes into it, which should only be performed by a professional. Because of the difficulty and expense associated with a central vacuum system, it’s worth it to hire a professional company familiar with the installation's complexities.

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.

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.
