another central vacuum unit I am considering

[n0oxy]

This one sounds really nice, 700 air watts. I use all of my central vac units without pipes, very powerful and this would be my 9th central vacuum unit.

I’ve never had one

Is there a typical install price ? Like in a two story house ( 3rd if you count the basement)?

When you say “w/o pipes” , is that referring to the pipes that get the air to different rooms?

Super suction

It looks compact, but powerful.  And the decibel reading is certainly a plus.


 


Do you at least connect the exhaust to a tube and run it out a window when vacuuming? That's what I did in my last rented place.  


 


My allergies have never been better since realizing how important it is to vent out vacuum exhaust.

That unit most likely uses a flow through motor. Just an FYI

central vacuum without pipes

I use all of my central vacuum units without pipes, a few have a utility valve built in, otherwise, just attach a utility valve to the intake and you have a super duper powerful canister cleaner. I don't vent them outside, they all use bags, none of them are cyclonic. If I get this one, it will go in the corner of my bedroom, I'm really thinking about getting it, it really sounds like a nice unit.

Interesting machine--looks like a step above the Atomik model-that one works but its bag is tiny-and can fill quickly.The model shown has a larger bag.The Atomik would be good for one room place or something like that-one of the minimal type homes that is like 500 sq ft.Just might add this one to my collection at some point.

a larger version with the same motor

Based on the specs, I'm guessing this one uses the same Domel motor as the original one that I posted, but it's 9 gallons instead of 3.75 and it's a bit more expensive, wonder if this one is made better or if it's just a larger size.
