Central Vacuum Installation in Laurel, NY

Every home has a different layout, so a central vacuum installation should be planned around the way the home is built and how you use it. Our installation process takes into consideration the home’s floor plan, the number and placement of inlet valves, tubing routes, available space for the power unit, and the type of system and accessories selected.

For new construction, the tubing and inlet locations can be incorporated into the home while walls are open. For an existing home, we can evaluate the structure and determine practical routing options for installing a central vacuum system with minimal disruption.

The goal is to provide convenient vacuum access throughout the home while creating a properly connected system designed for reliable operation.

Central Vacuum Installation for New and Existing Homes

New Construction

Installing a central vacuum system during new construction provides the greatest flexibility. Tubing can be routed through walls and floors before they are finished, and inlet locations can be planned as part of the home’s overall design.

We can work with the home’s floor plan to determine suitable inlet locations and establish tubing routes leading back to the central power unit. Planning the system during construction can help keep the installation clean and organized while making it easier to provide coverage throughout the home.

Existing Homes

A central vacuum system can also be installed in an existing home. Retrofitting requires careful consideration of the home’s existing construction, available access points, and practical tubing routes.

Custom Vacuum Systems can evaluate the home and develop an installation approach suited to its existing layout. The objective is to provide the convenience of central vacuum cleaning without unnecessary disruption to the home.

What We Install

Custom Vacuum Systems installs complete central vacuum systems and the components needed to make them practical and convenient for everyday cleaning.

Central Vacuum Systems

We install central vacuum systems with a dedicated power unit connected to a network of tubing and inlet valves throughout the home. The system is designed so that dirt and debris travel through the tubing to the central collection unit rather than requiring a portable vacuum to be carried from room to room.

Hide-A-Hose Systems

Hide-A-Hose systems provide an integrated hose-storage solution. Instead of storing a long vacuum hose separately, the hose can be pulled from the inlet when needed and retracted back into the tubing after cleaning.

This can reduce hose storage clutter while making the system convenient to use.

Power Units

The power unit is the central component of the vacuum system. We can help determine an appropriate power unit based on the size and layout of the home and the requirements of the installation.

Inlet Valves

Inlet valves are positioned throughout the home so the vacuum hose can reach the areas that need to be cleaned. Their placement is an important part of the installation because the goal is to provide convenient coverage without unnecessary outlets.

Tubing and Piping

The tubing network connects the inlet valves to the central power unit. Proper routing and installation are essential to maintaining an effective central vacuum system.

Accessories and Cleaning Tools

A central vacuum system can be equipped with a variety of hoses, cleaning tools, and accessories for different surfaces and cleaning needs. We can help select the components that make sense for the system and the home.

Our Central Vacuum Installation Process

1. Consultation

We begin by discussing the home, the type of installation, and what you want from a central vacuum system. For an existing home, the installation conditions and available routing options are also considered.

2. Planning

We determine the appropriate locations for inlet valves, tubing routes, and the central power unit. The system is planned around the home’s layout to provide practical cleaning coverage.

3. Installation

Once the system has been planned, the central vacuum components are installed. Tubing is connected to the inlet valves and routed to the power unit, with the installation approach adjusted to whether the home is new construction or an existing structure.

4. Testing and Walkthrough

After installation, the system is tested to make sure the components are properly connected and operating as intended. We can also explain how to use the system and its accessories.

Why Choose Custom Vacuum Systems?

Choosing the right central vacuum installer is important because the performance and convenience of the finished system depend on more than simply installing a power unit and a few outlets.

Custom Vacuum Systems brings more than 50 years of experience to central vacuum installations. Our approach focuses on planning the system around the individual home rather than treating every installation the same way.

From inlet placement and tubing routes to power-unit selection and cleaning accessories, we can help create a central vacuum system that is practical for the home’s layout and the way you clean.

Why Install a Central Vacuum System?

A central vacuum system can provide several advantages over a conventional portable vacuum.

• Convenient cleaning: Inlet valves throughout the home eliminate the need to carry a portable vacuum from room to room.
• Less equipment to carry: The power unit remains in its designated location while you move only the hose and cleaning tool.
• Reduced hose-storage concerns: Hide-A-Hose systems can provide an integrated way to store the hose.
• Whole-home coverage: Properly planned inlet placement allows the system to serve multiple areas of the home.
• A system designed for the home: Tubing, inlet valves, and the power unit can be planned according to the home’s size and layout.
