House has central vacuum cleaner makes life easier for housewives.

You are not satisfied with the high level of noise and poor quality of cleaning with a conventional portable vacuum cleaner? Quickly and effectively help solve the problem with a built-in vacuum inlets. I will describe the principle of operation and features of this device, as well as tell you how it is possible to install in your home.

Distinctions central vacuum

Built-in vacuum cleaner - a stationary vacuum system with a powerful motor and branched network of air channels. This system has a central unit, and is designed for daily cleaning of fine household dust and dust in private homes and residential apartments:

  • The power unit and the receiver are set to waste in a separate non-residential premises with good sound insulation;
  • Collected garbage from every room is made of vacuum line, due to the strong force air into the vacuum system;
  • Exhaust exhaust air from unfiltered dust particles discharged into the atmosphere outside the house.
To connect the hose to the wall inlet is used a special connector.

To connect the hose to the wall inlet is used a special connector.

I propose to assess the positive and negative sides of the central vacuum cleaner, compared with portable models:

Benefits disadvantages
  • Low noise level. During operation, none of the tenants will not hear the roar of the engine, and a hose only a slight hiss of air will be heard;
  • Quality and fast cleaning. Built-in units have a much greater capacity than portable vacuum cleaners, so allow cleaning better and more quickly;
  • health safety. Unfiltered fine particles together with the exhaust air output to the outside, so it does not raise dust in the room and returns it back into the house. This is especially true if a family has small children or residents who are allergic to dust;
  • Simple and easy operation. No need to constantly lots of wires and carry the vacuum cleaner from room to room. Cleaning is enough to connect the corrugated hose to the nearest wall inlet to the wall;
  • Serviceability. The collected trash from around the house collects in a capacious container, so there is no need for constant cleaning and replacement of garbage bags;
  • The presence pnevmosovka. Such a device makes it possible to remove debris swept off the floor without the usual scoop and bin.
  • High enough price. The cost of the central vacuum cleaner together with the connection can be between $ 2000 to $ 4000 (prices are relevant for the spring of 2017);
  • Complex assembly. air duct network must be laid around the house inside interior walls and ceilings;
  • Unscheduled maintenance and repair. When careless cleaning may be stuck in pnevmokanalah large household waste (rags, paper, etc.). To clean the channels have to partially disassemble the wall or floor of the apartment.
Pnevmosovki often inserted directly into the kitchen furniture.

The device and principle of operation

central vacuum system has a simple device and consists of several elements. Below I will discuss in detail how this works:

  1. power unit - is intended to create a negative pressure air in the pneumatic system:
  • Consists of an electric power of 1.6 to 4 kW, and the centrifugal suction fan in a metal closed housing;
  • Installed in domestic economic block away from the accommodation. In a private house it can be a boiler room or cellar, and in the apartment - storage room or balcony.
The diagram shows the power unit movement device and the air flow with dust within the filter element.

  1. The receiving container with a filter element - used for rubbish collection and filtering of exhaust air:
  • Set in a single unit together with the power unit;
  • The various models of the volume of the receiving container may be from 15 to 200 liters;
  • To separate large heavy particles cyclone type cleaners are used;
  • To capture the dust or paper tissue used interchangeable filters for fine cleaning of air.
  1. network of air - designed for the transportation of waste to the receiving container due to the driving force of thin air;
  • It is made of plastic pipes with a diameter of 50 to 110 mm;
  • To assemble applied for concealed installation in interior walls with plastic sleeves, swivel fittings and other fasteners.
  1. Wall inlets - are used for joining the corrugated hose to the vacuum of air network:
  • Mounted on the walls in different parts of the apartment, in accordance with a preconceived plan;
  • Each wall inlet is equipped with a lockable air valve and a limit switch for the motor.
The motor starts automatically after connecting the hose to the wall inlet.

The motor starts automatically after connecting the hose to the wall inlet.

  1. Sweep - a slit opening with hermetically closing lid connected to vacuum the pipeline system:
  • Designed for quick cleaning of debris swept away from the floor;
  • Installed at the bottom of the wall beneath the floor, often built into the plinth or basement kitchen furniture.
  1. accessories - designed specifically for the cleaning of the house:
  • The flexible corrugated hose length up to 15 m allows to cover a large area of ​​the room;
  • Rigid extension tubes, brushes and interchangeable nozzles for upholstered furniture and various types of flooring.

All built-in vacuum cleaners have about the same working principle:

  1. Before cleaning is necessary to choose the nearest wall inlet and open her decorative cover with vent valve;
  2. The insert hole wall inlet connecting pipe of the corrugated tube;
  3. The speaker connector on the nozzle closes the contacts of limit switch and starts operation in the power unit;
  4. After the end of cleaning is necessary to pull pipe and close the cover decorative wall inlets;
  5. In this embedded vacuum cleaner is disconnected from the network, and the air valve on the lid overlaps pnevmokanal;
  6. To remove debris from the floor pnevmosovkom need to sweep it with a broom toward the slitted opening, and press the foot pedal for a short run of the suction unit.

Before you install a central vacuum cleaner, it is necessary to choose the right place powertrain location, and well consider laying scheme of pneumatic vacuum lines:

Illustration Description of work
The circuit arrangement:
  1. Circuit should be developed so as to have a minimum length of the pneumatic lines;
  2. Number of inlets in vacuum cleaning systems must also be reduced to a minimum;
  3. To do this, they must be installed in such a way that the hose from the outlet could reach one to several rooms;
  4. You also need to take into account that the pneumatic lines do not intersect with other utilities (electricity, heating, water).
