Design a Custom Central Vacuum System By your Home's Square Footage


Not sure which make and model of central vacuum to get? Select your system by square footage instead! A good rule of thumb to ensure that you get a system that has enough power is to purchase a unit that is recommended for twice the total square footage of your home. Doing this will provide you with excellent suction while accommodating for basements and other miscellaneous spaces while also allowing for any potential additions in the future.

How To Build Your Custom Central Vacuum System:
  1. Choose the approximate square footage of your home from the options above. Remember that you'll want to double the actual amount when making a selection.
  2. Add your determined number of valve kits, with or without pipe. You'll want one valve for about every 675 ft2 of coverage.
  3. Add a vacpan kit to make kitchen clean-ups a breeze and to get the most out of your new system.
  4. If you're going to be venting outside, make your life easier and get an outside vent kit.
  5. Choose an attachment set based on your flooring type and needed hose length and protect your walls and furniture by picking up a hose sock to complete the set.
  6. Add a garage cleaning kit to utilize your central vacuum system to the fullest.
