Perhaps the hose for a central vac is a lot longer than that.
I have not had a central vac, but wonder why its hose has to be heavy and awkward.
I use an attachment extension hose and wand all the time with my upright vacuum cleaner. It requires a small box to store after use, but is light and not too unwieldy. It's about 8-ft long. Perhaps the hose for a central vac is a lot longer than that.
Would it help to have more inlets in the wall, perhaps 2 per room?
Our country house came with one and while we like it a lot , would not pay the height price of installing one. Pros: since the unit is in the basement it is quite quiet. The container holds a lot so no bags or much emptying. The hose is no heavier than our canister vac and seems to be longer than the cord on the canister unit and the suction is great. Wish it had some of those sweep in doors for quick clean ups.Anyone have opinions on Central Vac - Pros/Cons - having a home built and it's offered as an option. We'll have all hardwood floors with just area rugs. Don't think it's worth it, but looking for input. Thank You
