Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"I am currently doing extensive renovations on my 2-flat property, and working with reliable, skilled professionals is essential. C.C. Electric exceeded every expectation. From the moment Cristian responded to my inquiry, he showed the utmost professionalism. He came out promptly to evaluate my electrical needs, walked me through potential solutions, and provided a clear and detailed proposal. I reviewed it with my general contractor, and we agreed to move forward. We already had materials on hand (after a previous electrician never returned—long story), but Cristian and his team stepped in seamlessly. The scope of work was extensive: installing 19/00 boxes for new wall receptacles, adding new conduit, installing two new ceiling fans, new light fixtures, and a new bathroom exhaust fan vented to the side wall, just to name a few tasks. Cristian and his team completed the work in just three days, and the quality was exceptional. Even my GC had nothing but praise for their craftsmanship, "

Install Central Vacuum questions, answered by experts

The disadvantages associated with central vacuums start with cost. They are expensive to install, especially in existing homes, as retrofitting requires opening walls. The system's bulky hoses can also be inconvenient to maneuver and store compared to portable vacuums. Additionally, repairs may need professional service, adding to maintenance costs. Lastly, while powerful, they may be overkill for smaller homes or apartments, making the investment less practical for some households.

Technically, yes, you could install a central vacuum system on your own, but it is a very difficult DIY. There is a significant amount of planning, cutting into walls, and electrical wiring work that goes into it, which should only be performed by a professional. Because of the difficulty and expense associated with a central vacuum system, it’s worth it to hire a professional company familiar with the installation's complexities.

Before deciding whether or not to install a central vacuum system, consider the pros and cons to determine if it’s right for you.

Pros

  • Increased suction power

  • Improved air quality

  • Reduced noise pollution

  • Longer lifespan than traditional self-contained vacuum units

Cons

  • Higher upfront installation costs

  • Expensive repairs

  • Requires significant storage space

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.

Central vacuums can offer huge time savings and an easier way to keep your home clean and even improve the air quality inside your home. While it is a high upfront cost compared to a freestanding vacuum cleaner, it can offer so much convenience and performance over many years, which may make it worth the investment if you can budget for it.
