About AirVac Vacuums

The AirVac Company quickly became a leader in the vacuum industry from the start. They were also the go-to company when it came to innovative central vacuum parts and systems. Sadly, the company ceased operations in 2015 and is no longer in the vacuum cleaning industry.
AirVac was always on the pulse of new technologies and advancements in vacuum cleaning. This enabled them to create some of the most powerful – and affordable – vacuum systems in the industry. Whether for residential or commercial uses, thousands of them are still in use because they are durable. Here are some of the top models that are still in use across the world today and yours will probably be in the list:

  • AirVac AVP3000
  • AirVac AVP7500
  • AirVac AVP12000
  • AirVac AVP24000
  • AirVac AVR3000 Bagless
  • AirVac AVR7500 Bagless
  • AirVac AVR12000 Bagless
  • AirVac AVR24000 Bagless

Powerhead Option 1: Air-Driven Turbo Powerheads

Air-Driven Turbo Powerheads, also called air-driven carpet nozzles, attach to the wand or hose and operate without electricity. They harness the suction power of your AirVac’s powerful motor to provide a deep clean without using a motorized brush. They are easy to use and maneuver across floors because of their light weight and ergonomic design. New models have technology that makes them quieter and more powerful than before.
The power of these powerheads depends on the strength of your vacuum’s motor. The stronger the motor, the more power it has to such up dust, dirt, and debris. This type is great for cleaning medium pile carpeting, area rugs, and throw rugs. You can control the power to the head motor from a switch on the handle.

Powerhead Option 2: Electric Powerheads

SEBO Pro ET-1 Electric Powerhead An electric powerhead for your AirVac built-in vacuum is the single most important accessory to produces powerful performance from your system. We highly recommend the high-quality SEBO Pro ET-1 or SEBO Pro ET-2 powerheads because they are the best in the industry. They are considered the “Ferrari” of central vacuum powerheads and rank highest in performance, deep cleaning, ease of use, and the fewest repairs. Both of these work on low, medium, or deep pile carpets and can easily change to bare floors by flipping the switch. You don’t have to sacrifice quality for price with either of these electric powerheads. You can also select one of these cost-effective models:

  • Deluxe Comet
  • Premium Champion
  • Wessel-Werk

Electric powerheads have their own motors and some models allow you to control the power from a handle switch. The hoses with handles also allow you to switch the agitator on and off for straight suctioning on hardwood floors. This type is preferable for office buildings that get a lot of foot traffic and homes with children and pets. Check out this best powerhead guide to assist with ordering yours.
