Mike, We all thoroughly enjoyed the central vacuum collection that you did bring. Those four were perfect. I am in awe of the littlest one. It looks like a little filter queen, but with extraordinary suction. We went through all four, trying them out. When they put that huge beast into my pipes and connected it, I was completely overwhelmed. That machine has so much power. And I thought my modern day was the cats meow. Thank you again so much for sharing them with us. It was the highlight of the convention. After all, the theme this year was central vacuums.

That's a very neat collection you got there Mike! I like how you've put some of them into separate rooms, I was thinking you all had them in one room lol. What units are you planning on getting in the future?
Anyways, the MD Flo-Master F650t is actually a bit different than the M85 but not a whole lot. The motors are different, I've used both units before and the F650t I feel is slightly more powerful than the M85 (Actually the F650t uses the same motor as the AirMaster A650t). The F650t has a utility valve, at least the M85 that I've used didn't had one on. And the F650t uses Tru-Seal closed bags. | ||

flomaster M85 My M85 does have a utility valve on the front, I was told by those who sell the MD units that the F650 was the closest to the M85, when the M85 was out, it was their most powerful flomaster unit, now it's the F700 but there's not a huge difference between those two. Mike | ||

Have you thought about looking into a Modern Day M850h2? That's one of the newest MD units that was released for 2020 and it's got more waterlift than the S900r2 and the M965h2. Or you could look into the new AirMaster XL A850h2Q which has the same ratings as the M850h2.
builtinvacuum.com/airmaster/xl-c... Another unit you could also look into is the OVO 700. This appears to have the same motor that the Flo-Master F700t uses. But compare to the F700t, it's WAY cheaper. Plus it's a hybrid design, similar to like a Duovac. And it's made in Canada. I might install this unit for my aunt's new home that will be finished by later this year since unfortunately an MD unit is WAY out of their budget. myovo.net/product/hydrid-central... | ||

MD 850 The MD 850 has a lot of water lift but very low airflow, only 95 I think. That's too low to really be useful, even some portable cleaners have more CFM than that. Tolivac, that's a nice collection you have there. I had a beam unit at one time, I gave it away and would probably not get another one, their quality is not the best. I don't think Nutone's quality is very good either. Mike | ||

I was thinking you liked having more suction than airflow which was why I suggested the M850h2. They're designed for higher altitude areas with Hide-A-Hose applications where the S900 or the M956 doesn't have sufficient waterlift.
Regarding Beam, my parent's Beam 287S is actually a good solid unit along with many others that I've used before. The only models that I could care less about are their Alliance units. If Neura Air would offer us a GREAT deal to replace our old Beam with a new Serenity SC398, I wouldn't mind my parents getting another Beam. And speaking of Beam, their Serenity SC3500 is a dual motor 240 volt unit (Same thing as the Smart SMP1000) and you can use bags for that since all bagless Beams are now hybrid. | ||

two new units I'm planning on ordering the Drainvac Turbo and Galaxie GA200 this weekend, they are dual motor units but run on 120 volts. The Drainvac Turbo has 160 water lift and 145 CFM and the Galaxie GA200 has 160 water lift and 199 CFM. Really excited. Mike | ||

Sweet
Looking forward to hear your thoughts and impressions on both of those! I understand that you're not a fan of bagless but I'll have to admit, I really do like Galaxie's GA-100 unit. I've been to a home before that looked like a mansion and it had two GA-100 units. They use a internal separator that's just like what the old Whirlpool built Sears Kenmore or Panasonic had on their units which in my opinion is faster and easier to clean out than a true cyclonic Vacuflo or Vacumaid's and ACV's single units. If I were to buy a Galaxie today, I would get the GA-100.

I tried my MD Silentmaster,Drainvac Viper and they draw the same power-14.5A on my Ampmeter.Same with my MD Airmaster-14.1A.The performance of these machines is about the same.All very powerful!And of course-use bags.The MD Airmaster is a hybrid machine-use bags in it. | ||

atomik bags I think the bags may still be available, mine has the zipper but it's never opened when it shouldn't, yes it is a nice little vacuum, not sure how well it would work connected to pipes since I don't use any of my central vacuums that way. Mike | ||

Mine did when I tried the mainden run of my Atomic-So I duct tape the zippers closed.Would like to see these bags WITHOUT the zippers-this type of bag material wasn't intended to be reused.I can do several car cleanings-then the bag has to be replaced. | ||

The motor pod side is always where the exhaust is! | ||
