Central Vacuum Service & Repair in Greenlawn

A central vacuum system consists of multiple components that work together, including the power unit, tubing, inlet valves, hoses, and cleaning accessories. When one component develops a problem, the system may not perform as expected.

Central vacuum service can include inspecting and cleaning the power unit, checking the system for clogs, obstructions, and leaks, examining wall inlets and accessories, and checking the system’s overall pressure and connections.

Custom Vacuum Systems has more than 50 years of experience servicing central vacuum systems throughout Long Island. Service is available for all major central vacuum brands and for both older systems and newer technology.

Central Vacuum Troubleshooting & Repair

Several different problems can affect the operation of a central vacuum system. Identifying the source of the problem is an important part of determining the appropriate repair.

Loss of Suction

Reduced suction can result from problems within the vacuum system, including clogged or obstructed lines, hose obstructions, leaks, or issues involving the power unit and its connections.

The system can be checked for these conditions to help identify the source of reduced performance.

Central Vacuum Won’t Turn On

A central vacuum that does not start may have an issue involving the motor, relay, inlet connection, or another electrical or mechanical component.

The power unit and related components can be inspected to determine what is preventing the system from operating.

Unusual Noise

Changes in the sound of a central vacuum can indicate that the system needs to be inspected. The power unit, motor, connections, and other components can be checked as part of the troubleshooting process.

Tubing Problems & Blockages

Obstructions in the tubing or hose can interfere with airflow and reduce system performance. Central vacuum service includes checking lines for clogs, obstructions, and leaks and removing obstructions from hoses when necessary.

Power Unit Service

The central power unit is an important part of the system and can require cleaning, inspection, maintenance, or repair.

Power-unit service can include checking and cleaning the unit, inspecting the motor and related components, replacing motors or relays when necessary, checking seals and connections, and cleaning the dirt canister and protective lint screen.

The power unit can also be checked for proper suction and overall system performance.

Wall Inlets, Hoses & Accessories

Problems are not always located in the central power unit. Wall inlets, hoses, and cleaning accessories can also affect the way a central vacuum system operates.

Service can include:

• Inspection and repair of wall plates
• Tightening and leveling inlet valve screws
• Inspection and repair of central vacuum accessories
• Removing obstructions from central vacuum hoses
• Repairing carpet oscillators and Turbocat components, including belts and bearings when needed

Tubing, Piping & System Connections

The tubing network connects the home’s inlet valves to the central power unit. Clogs, obstructions, leaks, or improperly sealed connections can affect system performance.

Service includes checking the system’s lines for clogs, obstructions, and leaks. Connections and clamps can also be inspected and tightened to help maintain proper suction and exhaust seals.

A pressure check can be performed on the central vacuum system as part of the service process.

Hide-A-Hose Service

Hide-A-Hose systems use retractable hoses that store inside the home’s tubing. These systems have their own hose and inlet components that may require inspection or service.

Custom Vacuum Systems provides Hide-A-Hose installation and service as part of its central vacuum services.
