MD Power Unit questions

[amtraksebo1997]

I'm considering potentially putting an MD Central Vacuum unit in my home. I'm thinking about it being either a low-end FLo-Master or Modern Day unit, but I can't decipher the differences between the two lines. Also, I'm worried about the units being really loud, as they'd be going in my laundry room, since I don't have a garage or basement. What are their decibel counts at the power unit? Also, I'm not sure if my laundry room's breaker could handle the unit if anything else (I.e., the washer and/or dryer) were also running off of it simultaneously. I'm not an electrician, so I'm not entirely sure how any of the electrical side works.

Could anybody provide some insight?

What

Is the wattage on your MD. What's the amoral on your breaker.

What?

I don't have one yet.

Likely

It'll run on a 220 line needing it's own disconnect.
If it's 110 it will like be high amperage and trip the breaker.

MD units

The flomaster line uses flow through motors which means they use the same air that is used to carry away what is vacuumed up. The air goes through the motor after it's filtered of course. As far as I know, the modern day series uses bypass motors, the silent master series uses bypass motors as well.

I see, so if I were to get an MD, I'd want to get one of those.

Now I still have some other questions

1. What is the decibel rating for these machine when you're in front of them?

2. Will one of the smaller Modern Days work off of a 15-20 amp shared circuit?
