What are the pros and cons of a central vacuum system?

• <div><p>Before deciding whether or not to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/central-vacuum-system-right-you.htm">install a central vacuum system</a>, consider the pros and cons to determine if it’s right for you.</p><p>Pros</p><ul><li><p>Increased suction power</p></li><li><p>Improved air quality</p></li><li><p>Reduced noise pollution</p></li><li><p>Longer lifespan than traditional self-contained vacuum units</p></li></ul><p>Cons</p><ul><li><p>Higher upfront installation costs</p></li><li><p>Expensive repairs</p></li><li><p>Requires significant storage space</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Do central vacuums need to be serviced?

• <div><p>Routine service inspections on your central vacuum cleaner help keep your vacuum running at its best while helping to avoid costly repairs. It’s best to schedule service inspections every <b>two to three years</b> for a professional central vacuum service to examine your unit. If you have several pets in your home or have a lot of dirt and dust, it’s best to schedule your inspections every one to two years. </p></div>

How do I know if my central vacuum is clogged?

• <div><p>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. </p><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What types of repairs don’t require caulking?

• <div><p>While caulking is handy for quite a bit of jobs, it&rsquo;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.</p><p>Large repairs that caulking typically won&rsquo;t do well with include cracks or holes larger than a 1/4 inch, rotted wood, or metal surfaces, such as garage doors.</p></div>

Q: Is a portable vacuum the same as a central vacuum?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
