    Torn on new power nozzle

    Yes, she does literally vacuum her house every day. She has several kids and pets, it gets messy quick. But only the upstairs is carpeted (Around 800 square feet, I'd say.), plus a couple of rugs on the main floor. And she alternates between the central vac and her Dyson stick vac. Wessel-Werks...

    Torn on new power nozzle

    Thank you. Thank you for your recommendations. I think that I'm going to go with the ET-2, as I do love the CT14DX. And I do apologize if I sounded against Wessel-Werk. I'm not, in fact, the EBK 360 seemed perfect for me. I'm just a bit leery because I have a freind who has one for her central...

    Torn on new power nozzle

    Thank you very much Alex! Hmm, it’s a hard choice! I suppose that I’ll just have to get both of them one day! After all, one can never have too many powerheads! Do you find the ET-2 comparable to the CT14DX on your grandpa‘s Vacumaid system?

    my new finds, and yet another gay collector is there a link?

    Well, I haven’t really met any collectors, so I can’t say. However, I can tell you that I am gay.

    Torn on new power nozzle

    Thank you! I did not realize that it had that many improvements. Well, that most certainly makes it a no-brainer! I do really love Sebo. So, why exactly would you recommend the EBK 360 over the ET-2? How does the EBK 360 compare with the EBK 340?

    Why do you think that the ET-2 is better than the ET-C?

    Torn on new power nozzle

    Hello, I am considering buying a new power nozzle for my central vacuum, but I really don't know which one to get. I have a mix of carpet from short berber and commercial style carpeting in my basement to more plush (but not actually considered plush) carpeting in the bedrooms. I am currently...

    Adding Sound Insulation to Central Vacuum Motor?

    Hello again, I do have a cyclonic dirt canister, the VacuMaid DC1200. Therefore, as Panasonicvac mentioned, changing to a flow thru motor would not be possible, due to the amount of dirt passing htorugh the motor. However, even if I didn't have a cyclonic unit, I would not get a flow thru motor...

    Adding Sound Insulation to Central Vacuum Motor?

    Thanks everyone I think I'll just go with the old fashioned way - using earplugs. Madman, I do have a muffler. They're only like $10. Ultralux88, it is vented outside. I would never have a central vacuum and not exhaust it outside, that's one of my favourite features of them! n0oxy, one day...

    Adding Sound Insulation to Central Vacuum Motor?

    Hello, and once again, thank you for the replies! As an update, I went ahead and lined the entire compartnment with foam, and made sure that there was no metal to metal contact, with the foam gasket at the top, and the rubber gasket at the bottom. Unfortunately, it really didn't make much of a...

    Adding Sound Insulation to Central Vacuum Motor?

    Thank you for the replies! Thank you for your input. I am glad to know that there shouldn't be a problem, prolonging I keep all of the airpaths clear. Rex, I understand that they weren't designed to be quiet, but my unit is currenly in an unfinished basement, which doubles as a work area, and I...

    Adding Sound Insulation to Central Vacuum Motor?

    Hello, I am currently working on a project. I got a good deal on a VacuMaid P-225 motor pod with a brand new motor. I did not realize how loud they are until the first time I turned it on, and I have to say, I almost jumped to the ceiling in shock. Even for me, who doesn't really mind a loud...

    Vacumaid P-225 Question

    Thank you very much MadMan. I am glad to hear that! No, it is thankfully not throwing sparks! Very interesting. No, no other problems, so I'll assume it's normal unless someone tells me otherwise. It's definitely still weird.

    Looking for a Vacumaid Motor Pod

    Hi, I'm looking for a Vacumaid P350P motor pod. (Or really any Vacumaid/AstroVac dual motor, 240 volt pod with 7.2 inch motors that are not the 115334 motors) If anybody sees one for sale, has one they don't want anymore, or know someone looking to get rid of one, I'd love to hear from you! Thanks.

    Vacumaid P-225 Question

    Hello, I have recently aquired a Vacumaid S1600, but it was not functioning (neither the motor or control board). As I consider it underpowered, and I needed to replace two main parts, I decided to upgrade. I now have the P-225 motor pod, but with a brand new P-225P motor. However, the control...
