"Aerus (SSAP, LLC) repairs and installs central vacuum systems. Steve was available for an appointment to diagnose our nonfunctioning central vacuum system. He requested that I send photos if I could. We have a 22 year old Beam Electrolux system. He was grateful ful the photos, because he knew exactly what he was dealing with. Steve arrived on time. He is a pleasant, jovial fellow. He diagnosed the problem and gave us options for fixing the problem. After he was finished, he checked out the motor and filter unit in the garage. Steve explained the best care and treatment of the system. He had cleaned up and was gone in an hour. This was a wonderful service experience!"
"Had them give me an estimate to complete a central vacuum install in my house. Ended up going with a different company, but their estimate was fair priced, they were my second choice."

"I bought the $99 2 hour special for installation of a mount and TV. I was extremely happy with the work, wiring through the walls, and caps used to finish the holes in the walls. The technician came out assessed my needs and did the work in about an hour and 15 minutes. I paid extra for the caps and a cable but seemed reasonable. I was planning on a future install, so the installer took a look and said he could come back when I purchased the TV and install. Very polite and professional! Would definitely recommend.
"We discussed install but what we decided was that he could provide all of the materials and I would install. He was very consultative and very helpful and I liked that he gave me options. He never seemed bothered that I considered then decided to do the work myself."
Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
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.
A central vacuum system can be a worthwhile investment depending on your needs and budget. While the upfront cost is higher than a traditional vacuum cleaner, it offers significant long-term benefits. These systems can save you time and make cleaning your home easier, as you only need to carry the hose and vacuum head, eliminating the need to lug a heavy unit up and down stairs. They also tend to operate more quietly and can improve indoor air quality. The convenience and performance over many years may make it a valuable addition to your home if you can budget for the initial installation.
For the average-size house, a central vacuum installation usually takes one day of work by a team of professionals. Large houses may take two or more days. But if you are planning on a DIY project, it’s likely to take much longer. We suggest getting a few estimates for a project this big and fully understanding all the requirements before you make a decision about installation. Certain parts of your house may not be usable during the installation, and you may want to make other plans.
