Running a complex series of tubes and installing wall inlets are necessary labors if you’re considering buying a Broan central vacuum system, or any centralized system for that matter. Deciding on a location for the entire network’s power unit is also crucial, and newer and older homes can differ greatly in regards to where is best. Even though you’ve seen the Broan brand-name pop up in sales literature or online, it doesn’t necessarily mean the company is the best manufacturer to meet your needs. There is a vast array of different makers and models in the central vacuum world, and almost all of them are an answer to a specific set of household requirements. Larger homes will need a system to have more power than smaller ones, and even houses around the same size can have drastically different layouts. Narrow hallways and disjointed rooms may require more strategically placed wall inlets than a home with a more open floor plan.

Electricity is another important factor, in more ways than one. You need to make sure the power unit that runs the vacuum system has enough suction force to provide equal coverage to the entire home. The electrical wiring throughout your house will be a good indicator of how easy it may be to run tubing for the vacuum system. If you have generous space between walls for piping and electricity, the installation process will be easy. The location of the central circuit breaker for the home may ultimately make a prime place for your vacuum system’s power box, as it is out of the way but easily connected to other parts of the house.
