Let us help you with the basics.
1. What is your home size? Include all areas and floors to be serviced by your central vacuum system.
Home Size____________________________ sq. ft.
2. Based on your home size, choose your power unit from the three different Power Unit series indicated on page 30 selection chart.
Power Unit________________________________
3. Determine the number of wall inlets you will need. As a quick reference for estimating, we recommend using the relationship of 600 sq. ft. for each inlet. Based on the home square footage used above, divide that value by 600.
Always round up for estimating purposes. For example, using a 2,800 sq. ft. home: Home Size of 2800 ÷ 600 = 4.6, round up to 5 inlets.
Your Home Size_____________ ÷ 600 =__________ , round up to__________Inlets
Type of Wall Inlet Selected___________________
Choice considerations:
Based on your interior décor, select the color and style wall inlet most suited for your needs as shown on pages
If you selected a VX550 or VX1000 Series Power unit, we recommend you include VX™ Series Inlets in your system.
If you selected a VX™ Series Tool Kit or hose we recommend you select your wall inlet from the choice of inlets shown on page 23.
4. We strongly recommend including at least one VacPan™ or VacuSweep® for use in kitchens, pantries, laundry rooms or other locations, which have hard surface flooring. See page 9 to select the right VacPan™ for you.

5. For determining the amount of tubing and fittings needed:
Typical installations require about 16 ft. of tubing for each Wall Inlet and VacPan™ used.To estimate the amount of tubing required, multiply the # of Inlets
and VacPans™______________ X 16 =____________ ft.
Based on the number of Wall Inlets in your system, select the series kit needed for your style Wall Inlet as shown on pages
Congratulations... You have quickly and easily selected all the basics for your Central Vacuum System!
