How to Handle the Central Vacuum Pipe System of a Central Vacuum Cleaner

Many homeowners are resistant to the idea of installing their own central vacuum systems, but there is no reason to be reluctant because this is a straightforward job anyone can manage to do. The only thing they need to do is to pay attention to all the details related to the installation procedure before making any cuts into their walls. This also includes choosing the right location for the central vacuum pipe and avoiding plumbing equipment and electrical wires.

Homeowners have three major choices when it comes to central vacuum pipe installation, namely they can choose between plumbing pipe, flexible hoses and vacuum tubing. In the former case, the pipe is the same as the one used for carrying water around homes. Its standard diameter is set at two inches and it is usually available in lengths of 10 or 20 feet. This type of pipe is very easy to find, resistant for its walls are thick and very cheap because of its wide application range. However, it has a number of disadvantages, including a variable wall thickness and rough transition points betw

een the plumbing pipe and the pipe fittings where stiff objects can easily get stuck. This risk is also increased by the rough cuts at the ends.  

Homeowners can also use flexible hoses to replace the fittings and elbows, but this option is only recommended at the ends. There are two types of flexible hoses used for pipe installation today, namely vinyl hoses reinforced with wires and PVC hoses. This option is usually preferred by those seeking to ease the installation process as much as possible for they just need to cut pieces of flexible hose to fit them anytime bends are required. However, the friction is much higher than with any of the other two pipe installation options, which results in a lower number of air watts being produced by the central vacuum cleaner, and the risk of sharp objects getting stuck inside is also very high.  

Finally, the third central vacuum pipe installation option is vacuum tubing. This is actually the best recommendation for this type of pipe is specifically designed to be used with vacuum cleaners. Compliant with the American Standard of Testing and Materials regulations and use

d by the majority of US municipalities, the wall thickness of this type of pipe is consistent and so is the rigidity, which allows for a continuous and maximized airflow circulation. The risk of clogging is very low with vacuum tubing whereas the thickness is set so as to match that of the fitting hubs. Moreover, a thinner pipe wall eliminates the need to use PVC primers. Unlike schedule 40 pipes which need special adapters, this pipe is suitable for all back up plates, which is a major advantage in terms of convenience.

It is important to remember that anyone can handle their own central vacuum pipe installation if they make the right choices and according to specialists, the best pipe installation option for central vacuum cleaners is vacuum tubing, these pipes being specifically designed for use in the vacuuming industry.

Drainvac Little Giant Central Vacuum

Drainvac is one of the names of the vacuuming industry whose reputation is built on the innovations they lure customers with. One of the secrets is to show them that little things can hide an enormous power too. It is all in the way they are made. The Drainvac Little Giant central vacuum cleaner offers a sample of the convenience and power this manufacturer banks on in their mission to redefine the vacuuming experience as a simple need rather than a cumbersome chore.

The Drainvac Little Giant central vacuum cleaner addresses those customers who live in apartments or small homes and are looking for a small vacuum cleaner that can easily meet their average cleaning needs. For more precision, it should be noted that the Little Giant vacuum cleaner can cover any surface ranging between 1,200 square feet and 4,000 square feet. Pet owners will also be very happy with it too because it hides a highly efficient filtration system.

Anyone who takes a closer look at this appliance will notice that almost everything about it is simple. It is very easy to install, use and clean and its financial requirements are very low too. However, simple does not mean average in quality too. As already mentioned, the compact design of this appliance hides an enormous power, more precisely a suction power of 670, an airflow of 148 cubic feet per minute and a water lift of 128 inches. Also, it needs a maximum amp level of 13.4 to start up. However, Drainvac is also known for designing very silent vacuum cleaners. This model is the quietest of them all, the sound suppression acoustic material reducing the noise levels to 57 decibels at 3 feet and 53 decibels at 12 feet.      

Available with or without a disposable bag, the Drainvac Little Giant central vacuum cleaner ensures an impressive air quality. In fact, it is certified as environmentally-friendly with its energy conserving potential, a 98% recycling rate and the impeccable performance of its SilverClear filtration system which eliminates any allergen or debris sized as small as 0.3 microns. The canister, which also serves as a sample of the innovations proposed by Drainvac, is available in two different versions. Thus, customers can choose either one with a capacity of four gallons or one with a capacity of nine gallons to fit on their vacuum cleaner, depending on their needs. The nine-gallon version addresses pet owners in particular.

The innovative features of this canister include more than just its size. They include its design as well, Drainvac being the first manufacturer to introduce a transparent design for their canisters. Therefore, they propose a very classy design which is also durable, very practical and very convenient. The dimensions of the Drainvac Little Giant central vacuum cleaner and its weight are very eloquent. With a diameter or 12 or 15 inches, a height of 22 or 28 inches and a weight of 15 or 27 pounds, this appliance can be mounted anywhere very easily. After that, users can benefit from its outstanding performance for many years to come, as the twenty-five-year and lifetime warranties provided by the manufacturer promise.

 

The Drainvac Twin Turbo Central Vacuum Cleaner | Perfect for Large Homes between 5,000 and 20,000 Square Feet

Some homeowners are very hard to satisfy and so are extra large surfaces. However, neither of them stands a chance in the face of the Drainvac Twin Turbo central vacuum, which is the ultimate vacuum cleaner both in Drainvac’s offer and outside of it. The entire Twin Turbo concept revolves around sheer power encased in a compact and convenient design, all available for a very attractive price. The 240 V Drainvac Twin Turbo central vacuum cleaner addresses absolutely all cleaning needs. It is a perfect solution for customers who are having their homes restored or looking for a powerful central vacuum cleaner to replace their old one. Simply put, it provides sheer power for anyone who needs to clean the dust and dirt spread over anything from 5,000 to 20,000 square feet, whether at home or in commercial spaces.

This power comes from a twelve-fan 5.7-inch bypass double turbine motor made by DOMEL which produces 1,340 air watts, 190 inches of water lift and 290 cubic feet of airflow per minute. Integrated in the DOMEL Platinum series, this motor has a life expectancy of thirty years and releases only 62 decibels of noise. This is the merit of the sound suppression material the motor chamber is coated with. In fact, the materials are very well chosen with both the Twin Turbo central vacuum cleaner and the other appliances manufactured by Drainvac. Thus, the bodies made of ABS resin are protected against breaks or rust and they are very easy to clean.

Therefore, the transparent canister characteristic to the Drainvac appliances is also very easy to clean, which adds to its convenience. Similarly to its predecessor, the Turbo central vacuum cleaner, the Drainvac Twin Turbo central vacuum cleaner also comes with a 9-gallon canister only. They also share the bag and bagless versions customers can choose from for even higher cleaning results and the SilverClear filtration system. The latter is highly appreciated in the vacuuming industry for its outstanding effectiveness against microbes, fungi, mold and a wide range of other allergens as small as 0.3 microns. This places it on the list of the top recommendations for homeowners suffering from allergies or asthma. Moreover, the Twin Turbo central vacuum cleaner is also integrated in Drainvac’s Going Green project, which focuses on environmental protection and therefore promotes a 98% recyclability rate as well.

To conclude, the Drainvac Twin Turbo central vacuum cleaner sticks to all the principles this manufacturer has been recognized for in the vacuuming industry for over forty-five years, from the high filtration efficiency achieved by the SilverClear system to the transparent canister to size and weight. However, it stretches the boundaries of suction power to stand on top of all Drainvac appliances and their direct competitors, but without stretching those of affordability. This way, everyone has a cleaning solution at hand no matter how large the surface areas, how often they require cleaning or how extravagant their cleaning needs may be.

Dust and Allergens Are in Danger with the Drainvac Viper Central Vacuum Cleaner

Drainvac's designers have used their experience and knowledge in the vacuuming field to pursue the Drainvac mission for forty-five years now and they have never let their customers down. That mission is to provide ingenuous, creative and innovative solutions in terms of vacuuming, whatever needs or expectations homeowners may have. Thus, people with large surfaces to clean, for instance, can benefit from the ingenuity behind the Drainvac Viper central vacuum cleaner, which is also an inspired choice financially.

The Drainvac Viper central vacuum cleaner is one of Drainvac's vacuum models which come with either a 4-gallon dust canister or a 9-gallon one. Thus, homeowners can benefit from the power and filtration skills of this appliance whether they only have average cleaning needs or they have to remove pet hairs all the time or clean high-traffic areas. Whatever their cleaning needs may be, they can rely on this appliance to reach its peak performance on surfaces of up to 9,000 square feet. It should also be noted that it supports up to ten inlets.

The Viper vacuum cleaner shares its canister variability with two other models in the Drainvac collection, namely the LittleGiant central vacuum cleaner and the PowerHouse one. However, it surpasses them both in terms of suction power with the 780 air watts its DOMEL motor produces. The water lift and the airflow are also superior, reaching 151 inches, respectively 144 cubic feet per minute. Normally, the greater the performance of the motor, the greater the noise level as well, but this is not the case with Drainvac's Viper vacuum cleaner. Although more powerful, it produces the same number of decibels as the PowerHouse vacuum cleaner, that is 58. The long life expectancy of the motor should also be noted, Drainvac designing it to operate at its best parameters for twenty to twenty-five years.

In fact, durability is a common denominator with the Drainvac vacuum cleaners as their design also shows. Made of ABS materials, the Drainvac Viper central vacuum cleaner is resistant to rust and impact. However, the increased durability is not the only strong point of its design, the visual and practical sides being just as cleverly addressed. Similarly to its predecessors, the Viper vacuum cleaner weighs 15 or 27 pounds and measures 12 or 15 inches in width and 22 or 28 inches in height, depending on the model. These dimensions make it very convenient for they lower the storage requirements significantly.

Finally, the filtration system of the Drainvac Viper central vacuum cleaner is impeccable too. It aims for the highest cleanliness standards and not just through its action range, which includes anything from microbes to fungi as small as 0.3 microns. The Viper vacuum cleaner can be used either as a bagged vacuum cleaner or as a bagless one, the former being recommended for those who want to make sure they reach the peak in terms of cleanliness. The same scope lies at the basis of the Viper's energy effectiveness, Drainvac being known to aim for environmental protection. Therefore, the Drainvac Viper vacuum cleaner uses its excellent power and highly efficient filtration system to protect both its user and the environment at very low costs.

Wessel-Werk EBK 360 Soft Clean Power Head

Soft Clean EBK 360 is Great for Mohawk Carpeting

 The communication between the manufacturers of carpets and those of vacuum cleaners has always suffered, causing their relationship to be a rather dysfunctional one based on an easily identifiable pattern. In fact, it has always been a chase, with the latter constantly fearing being left behind. Every new initiative carpet manufacturers have ever taken has had an immediate response from vacuum cleaner manufacturers. 

Both of them have always been driven by their purpose to respond to the needs of their end users, but they did not seem to realize it for years. In fact, what they did not realize was that they could achieve even greater things if only they communicated properly. Thus, for a very long time, carpet manufacturers would focus solely on making carpets that would lure their customers with better performances, longer life expectancies and more beautiful designs. On the other hand, vacuum cleaner manufacturers would focus solely on improving the cleaning performance of their products.

 
Coming back to the cleaning challenges posed by the modern soft carpets, some cleaning equipment manufacturers have had a much easier job than others. Wessel-Werk is a clear example of the privileged position some have benefited from. Their built their entire manufacturing process starting from the EBK 360 power brush, which is their latest proposition in terms of power brushes. In fact, this part has proved to be so much more than that, making a huge impact on the profile market. The reasons are quite obvious. Wessel-Werk’s EBK 360 power brush produces great power to ensure an impeccable cleaning performance on carpets of different heights and does so for prices calculated to suit all end users, regardless of their financial possibilities. Although the response to this power brush was a very good one, the manufacturer decided to improve it even further and designed the Soft-Clean  version, which is now available for sale. As expected, this has led to the introduction of Soft-Clean pieces on canister and central vacuum cleaners alike. Basically, this was that first step that needed to be taken for the two industries to start developing a transparent and fully collaborative relationship which would open new doors for them to serve the best interests of their end users. Somehow, it acted as the push they needed to realize that they often share not only a purpose, but a wide range of other aspects as well which starts at their target demographics. 

Unfortunately, this adversity between the two industries has marked their evolution over time, rising problems on a regular basis for over forty years now. It all started with ASTM and their launch of testing protocols which the manufacturers of commercial and residential vacuum cleaners operating on the profile market at the time took advantage of. This initiative turned vacuum cleaners into the most sought after appliances of the time. However, the advertising campaigns behind them were rather inconsistent with the reality, so the need for a regulatory commission was evident. This led to the foundation of the ASTM F11 Committee on Vacuums, but it lacked objectivity too, issuing standards while ignoring the needs and requests of carpet manufacturers completely. As expected, this stirred quite a reaction from carpet manufacturers, although only a few years later. They set up the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) in order to be able to tip the balance in their favor, which they did, first through their cleanability protocols and then through their appearance retention ones. Moreover, they created a rating system and a paid approval system for cleaner manufacturers, thus excluding the cleaning equipment manufacturers from their business. This is the history behind the Green Label program and the Seal of Approval program initiated by the Carpet and Rug Institute back in 2000 and 2005, respectively.

As far as the actual products are concerned, the early 2000s brought along the California Shags which were incompatible with most of the power brushes then available on the market because of the long yarn which usually got entangled around the brushroll. Then, the mid 2000s brought along the frieze carpets. Today, the market is faced with the challenges of ultra-soft carpets which are bigger in every sense but only serve to promote them as a central piece of the market in the long term. In the end, the secret to success is proactivity, especially when it comes to developing new products. However, it is usually threatened by the element of surprise, which explains the overall activity of cleaner manufacturers. The sales numbers are the most eloquent. While they were rather reasonable with the former two types of carpets, they skyrocketed with the latter. In other words, soft carpets have long outrun their predecessors in terms of popularity, which has spread to both consumers and manufacturers. The competition between carpet manufacturers has been fierce over the past ten years with each of them trying to develop the softest carpet. So far, the leader is Mohawk with their carpet design which banks not only on an outstandingly soft texture, but also on durability. As expected, the offer is extremely diversified, soft carpets being available in a wide range of weights, textures and styles. However, the cleaning demands still stand out as the main problem with this new trend in the carpeting industry.

At the same time, though, things are looking up on a collaborative level because of this very problem. The extraordinary challenges posed by the modern soft carpets appear to be the common denominator that can bring the carpet manufacturing and the vacuum cleaner manufacturing industries together. Carpet manufacturers seem to finally understand that they need good cleaning equipment while vacuum cleaner manufacturers are putting much more effort into understanding the demands of soft carpets so as to be able to provide viable cleaning solutions. In fact, the ASTM F11 Committee on Vacuums has initiated a new program on Research/Evaluation of New Floor Covering. What is also impressive in the present context is that the committee has been tackling this collaboration issue directly by integrating a significant number of professionals from various fields, including carpet and vacuum cleaner manufacturing. As already mentioned, this level of collaboration was impossible to achieve a few years back.

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.

Vacuum Joke of the Month

"A door to door salesman goes to the first house in his new territory  He knocks, a real mean and tough looking lady opens the door, and before she has a chance to say anything, he runs inside and dumps cow patties all over the carpet. He says "lady, if this vacuum cleaner don't do wonders cleaning up that mess, I'll eat every chunk of it." She turns to him with a smirk and says "you want ketchup on that?"  The salesman says "why do you ask?" She says "we just moved in and we haven't got the electricity turned on yet!"

Another Satisfied Customer of www.thinkvacuums.com

Dear Pablo,

It tried to send a note of thanks but showed failed delivery so will go this route in hope you will receive it!

I didn't want to wait to praise you "on paper" for the kind, helpful and Patient service you extended to me both yesterday and today when ordering some parts for my Beam central vac system! It is so rare in today's rushed world of technology, which many of us over sixty aren't familiar with, to first of all find a real live human being to speak to and then to be treated like my concerns are of the utmost importance! I do not take this lightly and trust your company won't either when they read of your excellent service given to a new , inexperienced customer! I will readily and with great pleasure recommend Think Vacuums to everyone I know who has need of your services! As I said my daughter is building a new home and I have already encouraged her to go this this route in obtaining her system. Also will encourage another daughter to order a hose to enable her to turn her air driven on and off from the handle.
