Central Vacuum Inlets

A General Presentation of Central Vacuum Wall Inlets

Central vacuum systems have become very trendy, an increasing number of people choosing to purchase such a system instead of a conventional vacuum cleaner. The advantages of owning a central vacuum system are becoming clearer and clearer every day, so more and more manufacturers count on them to increase their sales. However, this is not what the present article focuses on. It focuses on the central vacuum wall inlets available on the market.

One of the advantages of central vacuum systems is their extended life expectancy, some of the models lasting for almost fifty years. There is also their increased power, which is due to their much larger motors, and their increased convenience as well. Many people prefer to mount their vacuum cleaner on a wall rather than drag it around the house, on stairs and around corners, thus saving themselves a lot of hassle. Basically, a wall inlet is a small port the hose of a central vacuum cleaner is fitted into. The use of brackets may also be required for the vacuum to work, the signal being sent via a metal band found at the end of the hose. 

Experts have various recommendations on the types of central vacuum wall inlets that should be used when cleaning different types of floors. For instance, hard floors can be cleaned using standard hoses which can be associated with standard inlet valves. This combination involves no electricity running through the hose, therefore lower risks. Carpet floors, on the other hand, require the use of a power nozzle and therefore that of an electrical hose, which can be associated either with a super inlet valve or with a standard one. Standard valves are recommended for pig tail cord hoses while super valves are recommended for direct connect hoses. In the former case, electricity reaches the power nozzle by inserting a 6-foot cord right into an electrical outlet. In the latter, there are two prongs that go right into the valve and ensure the transportation of electricity to the hose.

One can choose whatever kind of central vacuum wall inlets they want because there are a lot of models available on the market. These parts are available in different colors, even in different shades, in different sizes and in different shapes. Therefore, one has a lot of options in case they want to replace their wall inlets to match the home décor. The replacement of a central vacuum wall inlet is a very easy job everyone can handle. It starts with the identification of the type of wall inlet owned and with turning off the power in the house. The next step consists in removing the screws and checking the low voltage wires. Standard inlet valves have only two such wires. Electric or super valves, on the other hand, have two low voltage wires as well as two regular ones. The new wall inlet is to be attached to the wires, then the screws are to be put into place and the job is done. Now the central vacuum cleaner can be turned on again and the cleaning can begin.

Drainvac Central Vacuum Reviews


One of the best parts of assisting customers with their Central Vacuum needs is enjoying their look of satisfaction when we have completed the installation of a new Drainvac. 
Susan K.,  of Coral Springs, Fl had an older central vacuum that was installed when the home was built.  The unit began making a loud grinding noise, did not have the same suction power she was use to, and the unit had run its life span.  We replaced her vacuum with a brand new Drainvac and she absolutely "loves it", enough to give it a big hug.  

The all new Drainvac unit is quieter, more powerful and offers a better warranty than her old central vacuum.  Drainvac Central Vacuum units offer a lifetime warranty on the housing and a 25 year motor warranty.  The housing is constructed out of an ABS resin providing durable construction to withstand the heat of Florida.  The premium quality German made Domel motor offers years of quiet operation with built in silencing insulation that helps reduce motor noise.  The sleek modern design makes it a perfect fit for installation in any home. Because of the performance, reliability, and pure power all of our Drainvac customers will tell you that they "love my Drainvac". 

Susan K. purchased the 2014 Drainvac Viper Special Edition 9 gallon.  Susan had a tremendous challenge with pet hair from her two Golden Retrievers, she found the Drainvac Viper Special Edition to out perform her old unit, and is telling her friends and neighbors about how happy she is with her new Drainvac.  We have already received a call from her neighbor wanting her new Drainvac Viper Special Edition.  The best form of a compliment for us is a referral from one of our customers.
