Customers confuse the word vacuflo and central vacuum system all too often. Vacuflo is one of the oldest brands of central vacuum system on the market. By default customers will frequently search for a vacuflo system when shopping for a central vacuum system. This can limit consumer’s options given the wide variety of central vacuum systems available on the market today. Let’s take a closer look at the vacuflo central vacuum system. Most vacuflo systems feature a cyclonic filtration system that needs regular maintenance every time the receptacle is dumped. This can require owners to open up their vacuflo system and clean the screen underneath the motor. After cleaning your vacuflo system it will have greater suction due to the increased airflow. To avoid loss of suction and improve indoor air quality central vacuums with Hepa filtration and removable cloth bags are recommended. Central vacuums that feature Hepa filtration and removable microfiber cloth bags such as the CleanFlo central vacuums system will insure pollutants are removed from the home. CleanFlo is an excellent choice for consumers looking to improve air quality in the home .(link the word cleanflo using the colour blue to the about section of our website)

Some models of vacuflo systems have a pleated cartridge filter that should be removed and cleaned every time your bucket is emptied. Unscrew the bolt underneath the cartridge filter releasing the filter. Blowing the filter out with an air compressor will remove most of the dirt inside the filter. It is recommended that this filter is changed every 18-24 months. Performing such maintenance will ensure your vacuflo is functioning optimally. The most popular vacuflo central vacuum accessory package is the air driven nozzle package. Air driven nozzles use the suction of the central vacuum power unit to turn the roller brush. The alternative to this is an electric motorized power nozzle that will out clean air driven accessories. We highly recommend the use of electric power nozzles because of the superior cleaning they offer. If you’re one of the many people who are having problems removing stubborn hair or dirt from your rug with a non-electric power nozzle you can purchase a full electric power nozzle accessory package that will plug into your existing central vacuum system outlet valves.

Vacuflo central vacuum systems offer an excellent warranty and are very reliable central vacuum units. They do however require regular maintenance. If you have purchased a vacuflo with an air driven accessory package, upgrading to an electric motorized will drastically improve performance.
