"Gary Gordon was professional and super friendly! I purchased a house with a central vacuum which I did not know how to use or if the unit was in good condition. Gary visited our home within 24 hours of speaking by phone! He inspected the unit and all hoses and parts. Gary also taught me how to use the system and all its attachments. I would absolutely recommend Gordon Vacuum Sales & Services."

"My handyman was great, he gave me an estimated time of arrival , he was informed about what materials would be needed for the work , the price was very reasonable, he doesn’t think that any job is to small and that is very important to me , he cleaned up After himself so you wouldn’t know that I had work done , I will definitely be using him again in the near future."
Breathe Cleaner Air! \nOff season rates are now in affect. Call to schedule a free in home estimate. \n\nThe air we breathe affects our health. In recent years, as we become more health conscious, increased attention has been focused on the quality of air in the indoor environment. As air continually passes through your duct, the heavier dirt and dust particles settle to the bottom and accumulate. This dirt, dust and dander become the food that micro-organisms and dust mites need to grow and live. Combine that with a cool moist environment and it's easy to understand why this is the idea breeding ground for microscopic pests. \n\nCleaning the ductwork is best performed with our "power-vac" truck, and pneumatic brush, or air whip system. Vacuum alone won't clean your ducts It takes agitation as well. The whips and brushes loosen or "scrub" the dirt off and allow it to be drawn out of the house and into the trucks filters outside of the home. This method of cleaning is known as the "push/pull" method and is widely accepted as the correct means of cleaning a duct system. Think about your car, if air blowing across it were enough to keep it clean, it would never need washing.\n\n\nYou can trust that the skills and knowledge to service your needs can be found here. I do not use subcontractors. All work is performed in house by a team of trained professionals. Whether it's air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, video inspection, or central vacuum servicing, you can count on us to get the job done right, and for a fair price. With no surprises, and no "up selling" from our tech's.\n\nSincerely,\n \nMatthew Cunningham\nOwner: Modern Environmental L.L.C.\n\n"It was a pleasure meeting you. You did an excellent job explaining your procedure, addressing my questions, and completing the service. I would definitely recommend you others..." --Lindsay Urban, Philadelphia\n

Central Vacuum Systems questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
While caulking is handy for quite a bit of jobs, it’s still limited. Any crack or gap larger than 1/4 inch is best left for a more intensive repair job. When you hire house painters, they should run a thorough check to see what they need to repair before they start the job.
Large repairs that caulking typically won’t do well with include cracks or holes larger than a 1/4 inch, rotted wood, or metal surfaces, such as garage doors.
Regular cleaning, sealing, and inspections help identify problems early and maintain aesthetics.
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.
