As you may be discovering, there are several central vacuum systems and central vacuum system
manufactures that you should research prior to making a buying decision.
Education is a key. Below is a comprehensive list of central vacuum systems and

of as many central vacuum systems as you have time for, and to get a FULL understanding
of the various types of central vacuum systems that are available.
Please note , these

vacuums, and my thirty plus years experience in central vacuum service and
installation, has given me a distinctive advantage in the central vacuum field.
I am organizing a comparison table of central vacuum systems, and a series of articles
comparing a variety of brands available

Central Vacuum Terminology
(data associated
with central vacuum cleaning systems)
C.F.M.
- Cubic feet of air displaced per minute by a
vacuum. This measurement is usually expressed at a 2” opening (standard pipe
size used in vacuum rough-in).
WATERLIFT
- The distance measured in inches that a vacuum motor will
lift a column of water up a tube (2” unless otherwise stated). Always rated
at standard atmospheric conditions of 29.92” of Hg (mercury), 68 degrees
Fahrenheit and usually expressed at a seal opening.
AMPERES
- The rate of electron flow through
a conductor, usually calculated at 110 VAC.
WATTS
- The measure of electrical power,
calculated by multiplying the voltage by the current (Amperes).
AIRWATTS
- (The only industrial wide standard of measuring a units' power)
C.F.M. at a given opening (2” unless otherwise stated) times "Waterlift"
at the same opening size divided by 8.5. Usually express at maximum levels.
TOP
MOUNT WITH INVERTED CLOTH FILTER -
Recommended outside venting.
Filter requires shaking in order to clean it, depositing dust on the floor
beneath during cleaning.
TOP MOUNT FILTER-LESS (CYCLONIC) -
Requires outside venting. Deposits debris on outside walls, plants, etc.
Screen requires monthly cleaning. Five to seven percent of dust and lint
enters fan chamber, reducing motor life.
BOTTOM
MOUNT WITH PAPER, CLOTH, MESH, AND FOAM FILTERS - Exhaust
clean air (air filtered before exiting unit). No outside venting necessary.
Extended motor life. Easy change of collection bag. Reusable cloth, mesh,
and foam filters. Slight power loss as collection bag fills.
