Central Vac Parts for the regular vacuuming

QUESTION:

Shop vac performance with no noise or dust blow-by. I had to buy some central vac parts (outlets and hose) for the regular vacuuming and lots of Sears extension hose for the shop and remodeling cleanup.So I was wondering Does anyone have any suggestions for or against particular brands of central vacuums? Also, for anyone who did the installation themselves, any suggestions?

ANSWER:

More suction. It has to pull through 40-50 feet of PVC pipe plus 30 feet of flex hose. I tried parallel but that was no stronger than a single unit. Series doubled the suction.
I install Vac U Maid central systems. If you install a central system get one that doesn't have the filter bags. The best system, the one I have had no complaints about, is th P125 by VacUMaid.This system will handle a house with about 2800 sq. ft. For a dealer near you call 405.762.2457, or contact me and I will price one for you.
I purchased and installed a dual motor HP Vac-U-Flow; and, boy, does it suck The unit uses cyclone separation - no filter bags. We vented the exhaust to the outside.
