RETRACTABLE CENTRAL VACUUM HOSE SYSTEMS
Hide-A-Hose Retractable Central Vacuum Systems
Enjoy the convenience of central vacuum
cleaning without carrying and storing
a traditional vacuum hose. Hide-A-Hose
retractable hose systems keep the hose
stored inside your wall, making it
easy to access when needed and
conveniently store afterward.
Hide-A-Hose systems can be incorporated
into new construction or certain
existing homes, depending on the
available installation space.
Hoses are available in 30, 40, 50
and 60-foot lengths to accommodate
different room layouts and
cleaning requirements.
01
Hose Storage Inside the Wall
Eliminate the need to carry and
separately store a traditional
central vacuum hose. The hose
retracts into specially designed
tubing when not in use.
02
Multiple Hose Length Options
Choose from 30, 40, 50 and
60-foot hose lengths to suit
your home's layout and desired
cleaning coverage.
03
New & Existing Home Installations
Hide-A-Hose systems can be planned
for new construction or installed
in suitable existing homes.
Proper tubing routes and
compatible components are
essential for installation.
PLAN YOUR HOSE COVERAGE
Hide-A-Hose Length & Coverage Guide
Use these approximate coverage
recommendations as an initial
planning guide. Actual coverage
depends on inlet placement,
room layouts, furniture and
other obstacles.
Hose Length
Approximate Coverage
30 Feet
600–800 Sq. Ft.
40 Feet
1,200–1,400 Sq. Ft.
50 Feet
1,800–2,200 Sq. Ft.
60 Feet

Important:
Hide-A-Hose systems require sufficient
central vacuum suction to retract the
hose into the tubing. Longer 50 and
60-foot hoses can place greater demands
on the power unit. Confirm that your
central vacuum is suitable for the
selected hose length and installation.

NEED HELP CHOOSING A HIDE-A-HOSE SYSTEM?
Our central vacuum experts can help
you compare hose lengths, review
power unit requirements and
identify compatible installation
components.
Choosing the right Hide-A-Hose components
starts with understanding your home's
layout, the available installation
space and your central vacuum's
performance. Review these important
considerations before ordering.
01Choose the Right Hose Length
Select a hose length based on
the area you want to clean and
the planned inlet location.
Measure the distance to the
farthest cleaning points and
account for furniture, hallways
and room obstacles.
02Verify Power Unit Performance
Retractable hose systems require
adequate vacuum suction to pull
the hose back into the tubing.
Longer hoses can require greater
performance. Confirm that your
existing or planned power unit
is suitable for the installation.
03Plan Compatible Tubing & Valves
Hide-A-Hose installations require
properly routed tubing, suitable
bends and compatible inlet valves.
Review the manufacturer's
installation requirements,
especially when retrofitting
an existing home.
