I was wondering if I could put some essential oils on a cotton round and stick it in the bag of my Kirby vacuums to help add fragrance while I vacuum.

Dual Motors? Another thing that Kirby could do to change up the Generation Series might infuriate some people is make the power nozzle electric. That way, the main motor could focus on raw suction and self propel and that way, It might be able to produce more airflow.

Carbon Brushes The motor runs fine and the carbon brushes have never been removed to my knowledge so I can't imagine that to be the problem.

Electric Attachments? For me, I think they should bring the of the pre-Sentria Kirby back and add some electric attachments. All they would have to do is add a power take-off socket on the side of the vacuum and make an electrified hose. That way they could offer an electric power nozzle and an...

Last time I went to visit my grandmother, I did a quick tune-up on her 2001 Kirby Ultimate G and one of the things that I did was replace the headlight bulb. Apparently, That particular bulb only lasted one vacuuming. The bulb I installed was a type #921 automotive bulb that I have had great...

Pigtail I know that Goodvac.com sells a Wessel-Werk EBK 340 with a Rainbow power nozzle cord for the e-series already pre-attached. http://www.goodvac.com/E_E2_Power_Nozzle_by_GoodVac_p/gv-nzl300e.htm

I can't seem to find any pictures of these on Google Images. If anyone has an Aerus/Electrolux CentraLux central vacuum system, could you please post pictures of what your inlet valves look like. Specifically, if they say Electrolux on them.

I'm new to the central vacuum scene and I have an old Vacuflo Model 26. The entire power unit including the motor compartment is metal. After I use the vacuum, the top dome which is above the motor is warm to the touch and the exhaust piping is warm to the touch. Is this normal or is it a sign...

I have a relatively old VacuFlo Central Vacuum Power Unit and I'm finding that the unit is discharging more dust out of the exhaust then I would like to see. I know that this kind of power units need to be vented outside but I use it only for my garage and my car so I don't want to throw an...

Reply Replying to juju93, the AquaMate 2 was launched with the E2 Gold (the model I have). I want to get one so bad so I can relieve the stress of carpet cleaning off of my Kirby G3. Replying to kirbysthebest, Me too. I'm so glad I didn't have to get a new machine. I want to get a single...

Rainbow If you guys are interested, Rainbow now sells a water pan strainer (Part Number R10633) to help with that exact problem. It's basically like a giant colander.

Update Replying to Lesinutah, That was exactly the problem. I don't know how it popped out of place since I didn't remove that baffle plate but it did. My Rainbow is working perfectly now. To answer your question, No. My E2 Gold is the first generation so mine does not have the holder for the...

I'm having a problem with my Rainbow E2 Gold. When I took the clear covers off to wash the decals underneath and one of the tabs on the plastic covers broke off and fell inside the vacuum. I took it apart to look for it and hopefully remove it. I didn't see it and I put the vacuum back together...

Does anyone have any good alternatives to the Rainbow AquaMate carpet shampoo? I currently have 2 1 gallon bottles of Rug Doctor Oxy carpet shampoo and I'm going to be buying the Rainbow AquaMate 2 soon. I'm wondering if the Rug Doctor shampoo is compatible. I asked Rainbow themselves and they...

Wallyflex For anyone thinking of adding Wallyflex, just remove a standard inlet and mount the wallyflex as they use normal inlet backing plates. Yes, it will be low to the floor but it's better than nothing.

Sentria?

Mine would by a mile be my Kirby Generation 3. I have a Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition but I consider that vacuum to be the crown jewels of my collection so it doesn't get used as much as the others. The G3 just does such a good job and I find that it's more maneuverable with the TechDrive on...

Update I just emailed Charles Richard Lester and he said that the website is down for maintenance. I'm waiting on a response on when it will be back up and running again.
