location of central vacuum
No need to store the unit in the closet, just set it near an outlet. I have all of my units sitting against walls that are close to outlets. The cords on central vacuum units are usually only a few feet long since the unit is designed to remain in the same place. I have a tote that I store all of my vacuum attachments in, and my central vacuum hose is stored behind my couch. It's an awesome set up because you get all of the benefits of a central vacuum without having to install pipes, and since you're not going through pipes, you get all of the power that the unit has to offer, and it's far more powerful than any portable vacuum. Don't get me wrong, I still love my backpacks and canisters but lately I have found myself always cleaning with one of my central vacuum units, I currently have 9 of them and there are 5 more that I am looking at getting.
