The MD Flowmasters are the most common selling machines at the dealer I use.He doesn't install central systems anymore-he sells the units and parts to builders or folks that install their own.Guess Mike got tired of crawling in attics and under buildings to install systems.He incorporates a Flowmaster unit in his "Port-O-Vac" machine is mounted on a janitor cart with a 50Ft cord and 35 ft hose.I ordered two of these for my workplace the machine stays out in front or behind the transmitter and you bring the hose and tool inside.These units do have Bypass motors.There were problems of overheating and the unit shutting down.Mike replaced the motors in ours and no problems now.Run it as long as you like-we picked up a lot of fine dust from the transmitters and that would clog the bag causing the orig flow-thru motors to overheat.So the Bypass ones are best.My Silentmaster uses the Hyper-Flow Filtetrete bag-GREAT system!!!The inner cloth bag,filter stays snow white clean!I just replaced the bag-it held several GALLONS of debris-the unit was still going strong.Mike will install a replacement power unit in an existing system-though.
