Types of Central Vacuum Systems (Quick Reference)
Understanding your system type helps diagnose issues and choose the right parts.
Motor Type
- Bypass motor: separate cooling fan; typically more durable.
- Flow-through: vacuum air cools motor; often more affordable.
Collection Method
- Bagged: cleaner disposal; great for dust control.
- Bagless: canister + cyclonic/filtered separation.
Filtration
- Cyclonic: spins dirt out; often vented outside.
- Filtered: replaceable/washable filters protect motor.
- Hybrid: can run with or without bags.
Installation Style
- Traditional built-in: PVC tubing through walls/attic/basement.
- Hide-A-Hose: retractable hose stored in piping.
- Portable/compact: smaller applications (limited layouts).
Exhaust
- Vented outside: exhausts fine dust outdoors.
- Non-vented: relies on high-efficiency filtration.
Power Unit
- Single-motor: common for small–mid homes.
- Dual-motor: higher suction for larger homes/long runs.
Common Central Vacuum Problems We Fix
If you’re experiencing any of these issues, a central vacuum service visit can typically restore performance quickly.
Clogs & Low Suction
One inlet weak? Whole house weak? We locate clogs and restore airflow.
Clicking / Dead Inlets
Low-voltage wiring, inlet contacts, valve issues, or control board checks.
Motor & Power Unit Issues
Strange noises, overheating, shutoff, loss of power, or weak suction under load.
Hose / Powerhead Problems
No power at hose, worn wiring, poor pickup, brush not spinning.
Bad Odors
Filter/bag issues, debris buildup, motor strain—service restores clean airflow.
System Tune-Up
Annual maintenance improves suction, reduces repairs, and protects motor life.

Central Vacuum Installation & Upgrades
Many homeowners think installing or upgrading a central vacuum requires major renovation. In most homes, tubing runs can be routed through attic/basement/crawlspace, and inlets are finished cleanly. We offer installations, replacements, and smart upgrades (power units, filtration, hoses, powerheads, and accessories).
Upgrade Power & Filtration
Boost suction and improve dust control with the right power unit and filtration setup.
Hose & Tool Upgrades
New hoses, improved powerheads, better tools for hard floors and carpets.
Hide-A-Hose Options
Retractable convenience and modern inlet configurations.
Prefer to Upgrade Instead of Repair?
If your system is very old, noisy, or losing power repeatedly, upgrading the power unit, filtration, or hose/powerhead can be the most cost-effective path. We also carry new vacuums, parts & accessories, and trade-in upgrade options when applicable.
Power Unit Upgrade
Restore suction and reduce motor strain with the correct replacement.
Parts & Accessories
Motors, hoses, inlets, filters, bags, powerheads, tools.
Trade-In Options
Ask what qualifies and what offers apply.

FAQs — Central Vacuum Service by AceVacuums CentralVac Technician
Tap a question to expand.
What is included in a central vacuum service call?
Our service commonly includes diagnostics, clog checks, inlet/low-voltage checks, filter/bag service, hose evaluation, and an 11-point inspection process (varies by system and symptoms).
How often should I service my central vacuum system?
Most homes benefit from service every 12–18 months, or sooner if suction drops, clogs occur, or the unit becomes noisy.
What are the signs of a central vacuum clog?
Reduced suction at one or more inlets, the unit running but not picking up, or an inlet that feels completely blocked.
Why is my central vacuum making a clicking sound at the inlet?
Clicking is often tied to low-voltage contacts, inlet wiring, or control issues. We test connections and correct the fault safely.
Do you service Hide-A-Hose systems?
Yes. We diagnose hose retraction issues, jams, inlet valve performance, and airflow restrictions specific to Hide-A-Hose layouts.
Which central vacuum brands do you service?
We service many brands including MD CentralVac, Beam, CanaVac, Clean Obsessed, CycloVac, NuTone, VacuMaid, Vacuflo, Electrolux CentralVac, and more.
Do you sell parts like hoses, inlets, motors, filters, and powerheads?
Yes. We carry many common central vacuum parts and accessories. Availability varies—call with your brand/model for fastest confirmation.
Can I upgrade my system instead of repairing it?
Absolutely. Many systems improve dramatically with a power unit upgrade, better filtration, or a new hose/powerhead setup—often without changing the entire piping network.
Do you also sell new vacuums, parts & accessories, and offer trade-ins?
Yes. In addition to central vacuum service, AceVacuums offers new vacuums, parts/accessories, and trade-in upgrade options when applicable.
