Hello all, I am in the process of retrofitting a central vacuum in my new home. The problem is that because its one of those open concept homes, all the exterior walls rest on the concrete foundation blocks. So, I can not drill up to put an inlet on the exterior walls. The only other option is...

So would a comparable unit like this be the new S2 from MD?

Hi all, I just wanna start off by saying, I know I have been posting a lot, and asking a lot of questions, but I truly feel like there is no other place to go. You guys are absolutely brilliant and know so much more than I could ever! Anyway, I was stumbling upon my local classifieds this...

Do you think that the ebk 360 May be too powerful and rough for more delicate carpets?

What about the beam q? It seems like a nice unit and grooms very well?!

Hello all!!! Recently I have decided to install a central vacuum system into my new home! I already have the unit and the plumbing all done and installed. I just need a power team for my system! can anyone give me a few units that they would strongly recommend, and maybe not recommend? I am...

Exactly the unit is so quiet! I would never go back to the old and lould u it’s!

Use a stealth powerhead, they have manual height adjustment in on the highest setting it would be absolutely perfect for you!

Dyson all the way!! It doesn’t have to be the last eat model either, used is even fine!

Today was the day where I decided to finally purchase the MD unit! I negotiated with the seller and eventually got him down to a price of $550. Really isn’t too bad but, it was a little bit more than I was hoping it would be. I brought the unit home and immediately started to replace my old...

You could always use Budd inlets! They are the same ones!

Looks like I will be purchasing the MD unit after all!!

I actually have a realitive that used that machine! They say it does have great power, but it is extremely loud! I have heard it and I think that it may be louder than my Budd! They do seem like good machines but central vacuum stores for some reason don’t ship units to my house. They say it’s...

Hello all! Recently as some of you may know from other postings I have been looking to upgrade my old central vacuum system (Budd). Before. I was going to use a MD 450 but many of you leaned me away from that idea due to it not being powerful enough for my application. I have been searching...

@luxflairguy Of course, I have to vent that unit outside or else my basement smells disgusting! But you hav ea good point, I would honestly do that but the only problem is that the Budd units are LOULD!!! I rave about my unit and love it but when I use it, it sound like a Boeing jet engine in...

What is the best place/website to get a central vacuum DIY installation kit. I need about a 4 inlet kit with plenty of pipe. Low voltage wiring is not a huge deal if not in the package. I have looked around and have seem super expensive ones and cheap ones. If you could link websites I would be...

In my personal experience and in my home, I would never use bagged units. I have 4 pets that sheaf like crazy!! I vacuum at least 3 times a week and with the amount of hair and dirt I pick up, I would be changing the bag probably every month. In my experience with bag, first off when you take it...

And I only have 5 inlets for my whole home. So the more I think about it the more it seems the machine would be able to handle that. Also, on the website it says that units can be rafters for higher or lower sq ft. So I’m not sure what I should do!

@nOoxy Okay, if you could link some good central vacuums I would appreciate it a lot!!!!
