I have the dual motor, commercial Vacuflo. I call it a Spencer, because it works just like a Spencer. I have a sixty foot Hide-A-Hose to use with it, and the Volt cordless power nozzle. I also have three ElectraValves to use with the electric hose and Riccar Premium Power Nozzle. I used to have a single motor SilentMaster S-5, but had Owen Perkins pull it out after several months - replaced by the Vacuflo. The air flow on the Vacuflo is outstanding. I couldn't deal with the clogging of the SilentMater's disposable bag.
The two power nozzles are Chinese. One is a knock off (kind of) of the Eureka Express power head. It WAS used on the silver Fuller Brush canister, and IS used on the Turbotronic Metropolitan. It's just OK. The second nozzle is much better, also Chinese, but has some cool features and a FAR better brush roller. | ||

My next door Neighbors owns a two motor Vacumaid S-3200 split unit central vacuum for their 8,000 square foot home. It's 120 volts, however it uses a different plug and cord. The cord uses three 10 gauge conductor wires (Green, Black, and White), and this also has a big electrical service panel connected to it. This is overall the best central vacuum I have ever used. I've used both very powerful Vacuflo and Silentmaster single motor units, I will say there is a HUGE difference in performance (You can have 2 or maybe 3 people using this at once) but I wouldn't say it's quieter than just single motor units. Haven't tried a two motor Vacuflo, Silentmaster, or the current version of this Vacumaid but I would be interested to see if it's any better than this.

I think the problem was is that there was no cyclonic cone on this. I bet that was from the previous owners because they never took care of ANYTHING in that house. I took those pictures maybe last year and the last time I was over there, there's no more dust in the pipes and on the walls. I don't know if they either fixed the problem or they just simply wiped it down.
Besides this wasn't the only true cyclonic central vacuum in my Neighborhood that's leaking dust. I know one Neighbor that owns a Astrovac (Same company as Vacumaid) and it's also a split unit model that's leaking dust. And one Neighbor that I know actually owns a single unit Vacumaid (I believe it's a model P-125) that's also leaking dust as well. I don't know about the rest in the Neighborhood that also has a Vacumaid or a Vacuflo. Here's a picture of that single unit Vacumaid that I took before, unfortunately I didn't took one from the Astrovac.
