I had one those GE vacs I had one of those traded in at the store. After cleaning it and servicing it up really well i played with it for a bit and it was horrible. It isn't a full size vacuum more like an electric broom. The suction/ airpower was pathetic no matter what I did to it and it...

A and/or D Fan A and Fan D are the same, those are the first stage fans that fit most of the metal body tanks. Fan C should be the second stage fan for the same machines. Fan B however looks to be an Ametek fan possibly for a hoover motor? or a replacement Electrolux motor. Seth

my customers love them I sell the Miele line and many of customers just rave about the Miele quickstep. I have a good half a dozen who have central vac for the thorough whole cleaning but also have a quickstep for every day maintenance. I have only played with the machine myself and it is a...

poor design Ok, first off you have a 1205 not a 1505. The terminal block in the rear was a poorly thought out design that was only used on 1205 and the Golden Jubilee. Electrolux used to make a retro kit for these models that consisted of wire leads going from the terminal block to cord winder...

fan-of-fans I recently picked up an avacado green kenmore canister. It's the smaller canister with the early power head where the cord is riveted to the wand. Let me know if your interested. Seth

I so got this one A few years ago I removed a pair of panties from and Oreck. Poor guy came in hollering his vacuum was broken and still under warranty. The look on his face was priceless when I pulled panties out of the intake right in front of him.

go for the Miele In my experience I feel the Miele vacuums are far better deep cleaners than the Sebo models, especially for the Uprights. Miele seems to have a might higher airflow than the sebo. IF your wanting ease of use for attachments a canister model might be best. The mid line Miele...

Carpet is the problem Ok Here is the deal. The central vac would have kept the carpets reasonable clean had the original power brush been repaired rather than abandoned. One trick I have learned very well is that carpet is never really 100% clean. This is why door to door salesman are able to...

Check your warranty Miele should have a two year warranty and 7 years on motor and housing.

Haha I do believe that. Haven't seen that fuse go out very often but it does happen.

hose inlet The contacts are part of the whole hose inlet I have a few. There are aftermarket ones as well that work great

pic two of two Here is the vacuum unit itself. Located in the utility closet which is dead center in my store. Actually on the other side of the wall where the vacuum hangs is my work bench. Very convenient if you ask me. Also made installing it a breeze.

Pic one of two Here is the work bench end of the system. I went with the standard wire reinforced hose for flexibility and because I find the stretch hoses to be be very frustrating when using the crevice tool.

Love it! I have a Brown NuTone 350 from the 70's installed in my store for my bench vacuum and it cleans the showroom. I have a holster vac set up at the work bench which I just love. Will post pictures tomorrow.

ProTeam ProTeam is the same as the Prolux upright and they have one model with OBT. You can also find the same unit under the Perfect label. Both are great units and on board attachments is much easier than a separate attachment pack.

Royal or Old Electrolux The Royal S20 would be a great machine for the job however I tend to recommend rebuilt Electrolux tanks suck as the Silverado or Diamond Jubilee for heavy use. The durability would be a bit better with the Electrolux and as a tried and true design we all know those vacs...

Generic hose blank It's not a Kirby hose it is an old generic hose blank sold through vacuum supply companies back when everyone still used woven style hoses. I have seen these many times and actually know a guy who still has a few in stock.

no Generic for the AT1100 There is no generic hose or parts available for the AT1100 hose and Power set. I have tried trust me. I sell the Wessel upgrade kit for 349.00. If anyone wants one email me I will give you a deal.

wessel werk It is actually a wessel werk ebk280. The Oreck DutchTech 1100 and 1300 used it before they upgraded to the EBK340. I have also seen these nozzles used on central vacuum tool kits and a generic looking rainbow copy, I think it was called an ocean blue.

Good Luck I have had a hell of time getting those hoses for the past 6 months. At this point with all the issues with electrical contacts burning out i don't sell the hoses any longer only a replacement Kit with crush proof hose and Wessel EBK360 power nozzle.
