A central vacuum cleaner is a vacuum cleaner that is installed into a building. Also known as built-in or ducted vacuum system, the central vacuum cleaner uses tubing that is installed directly into the walls of a building, and a container for collection that is usually placed elsewhere, such as a garage or basement. In addition to the central vacuum cleaning system, inlets are also installed throughout the building in which the hose of the vacuum is attached, in order for dust and debris to get to, and travel through, the tubing in the walls to the collection container. Unlike portable vacuums, a central vacuum cleaner allows you to walk through your home without having to carry heavy equipment. A lightweight hose and brush head replace the traditional bulky vacuum unit, and allow you to move freely around your home while cleaning tight or out-of-reach spots, with ease.
Perhaps one of the greatest advantages of a central vacuum cleaning system is the lack of noise while cleaning your home. Because the motor of the central vacuum cleaner is located with the collection container elsewhere in the house, there’s no reason to fear waking up a sleeping family member, and no need to wait to start cleaning until someone is off of the phone. Central vacuum cleaning systems also beat traditional portable vacuums when it comes to ridding your home of allergens. According to University of California at Davis School of Medicine, those who use central vacuum cleaners over portable units suffered from fewer allergy symptoms, and therefore, had an improved quality of life. This is made possible because rather than recycling allergens throughout your home like a portable unit does, the central vacuum cleaner sends them to the collection container elsewhere in the home.
