This is the motor unit. Note the metal dual exhausts, they are needed due to the heat the motors generate. Please excuse the unpainted block below it. The CV was bigger. |

And this is the dirt container/cyclonic seperator. It has a plastic liner in the bottom and the top lifts off so you can easily clean the motor protection screens. |

Just out of curiosity Andrew, what was the central vac unit that was there previously? Hope it was nothing very vintage.... |

Wow! Although I am not a fan of central vac, I would love to give this one a try. My sister has central vac in her new house which uses the Turbo Cat powerhead, I think I would like it better if it used an electric power head. What tools do you use with your central system Andy? As often as I vacuum, dragging that hose out everytime gets old. When I clean for my sister I use hers, but often take my Royal along. I had a friend many years ago that had central vac and I loved it. It used Eureka tools, the old Eureka tools with the 3 peice wands, deluxe dusting brush and upholstery tool. It also had the Eureka style powerhead, with the Vibra Groomer 1. It was installed in a old farm house. It worked well, her daughter had a hair salon in the basement, so it got a work out Morgan |
