In-Home Consultation & System Design
Step 1
We evaluate your home and build a layout that maximizes coverage while minimizing suction loss.
We review:
- Square footage, levels, and key cleaning zones
- Flooring types (hardwood, tile, carpet, rugs, stairs)
- Access points (attic, basement, crawlspace, garage, utility areas)
- Ideal inlet placement for smooth hose reach and workflow
- Retrofit vs. new construction routing opportunities
Why it matters: smart planning prevents weak suction, awkward inlet placement, and difficult future service.
Central Power Unit Placement
Step 2
Correct placement keeps the system quiet, accessible, ventilated, and serviceable.
Common locations:
- Garage (most popular)
- Basement / utility room
- Mechanical room / storage area
- Laundry room (when ventilation and access allow)
Outcome: a system that runs strong, runs quieter, and lasts longer.
Pipe System Installation
Step 3
Airtight connections + efficient routing = better suction and fewer future issues.
We focus on:
- Efficient trunk lines to reduce suction loss
- High-grade central vacuum PVC and proper fittings
- Sealed joints to prevent micro-leaks
- Secure fastening to prevent movement and rattling
- Clean transitions through studs/joists
Quality control: airflow is tested as we go—small leaks or sharp turns can affect performance.
Wall Inlet Valve Installation
Step 4
Inlets are your daily touchpoints—placement, alignment, and sealing matter.
We install:
- Strategic inlet spacing for efficient coverage
- Clean mounting for a finished look
- Standard + electric inlets (for powered tools)
- Garage/utility inlets
- Retractable hose inlets (Hide-A-Hose style)
Checkpoint: every inlet is tested for suction, fit, and activation before moving forward.
Low-Voltage Wiring & Power Integration
Step 5
The control system that activates your vacuum from any inlet (or hose handle).
We ensure:
- Low-voltage wiring from every inlet back to the unit
- Secure routing inside walls/attics/basements
- Labeled connections for clean future service
- Electric inlet integration where needed
- Reliable activation from every location
Why it matters: wiring is a top cause of “system won’t turn on”—we do it right the first time.
Hose, Tools & Accessory Setup
Step 6
We tailor the system to your floors, stairs, furniture, and lifestyle.
Common configurations:
- Standard + low-voltage switch hoses
- Electric hoses for deep carpet cleaning
- Retractable hoses (where applicable)
- Powerheads, turbo brushes, hard floor brushes
- Upholstery, dusting, crevice tools, garage kits
Result: your tools fit properly, store neatly, and perform where you need them most.
System Testing & Customer Walkthrough
Step 7
We validate the system end-to-end—then show you how to use and maintain it.
Final checks include:
- Suction checks at every inlet
- Airtightness verification across the network
- Activation testing (inlets + hose handle switch)
- Electric tool testing (when applicable)
- Filter/bag/bin seal & seating checks
Walkthrough: usage, maintenance schedule, quick troubleshooting, and upgrade options.
