Top 5 Most Powerful Central Vacuums

Central Vacuums or Built-in Vacuums have been growing in popularity over the years. These types of systems allow easy access without having to lug around bulky traditional upright and canister vacuums. With a Central Vacuum you just simply carry a lightweight vacuum hose and wand that is attached to a powerhead.

When buying a central vacuum system, it is important to make sure the unit is powerful enough to effectively pull dirt through the system. You must take into consideration the square forage of your home, the amount of central vacuum PVC pipe used, and the suction power of the unit.

Central Vacuum systems produce powerful suction because they contain a larger, stronger motor while some units contain two motors. The vacuum motor consists of electrical components attached to a fan or multiple fans. When the fans spin, a partial vacuum is created and the pressure inside the vacuum cleaner drops below the existing air pressure in the room. Because air pressure is higher outside the central vacuum than inside, air rushes through the vacuum. So it’s easy to see why the motor is the heart of a central vacuum system. The more powerful the motor is, the greater the suction power and airflow is produced.

Here are the Top 5 central vacuum systems with the most suction power.


1) Drainvac Twin Turbo Central Vacuum (For Homes Up To 15,000 Sq Ft)

The new 240-volt mega-powerful Drainvac Twin Turbo is the king of all vacuums! The Twin Turbo was first designed to be used for commercial applications with its crushing 1,340 air-watts (suction power). This makes the Twin Turbo a big demand by builders for large custom homes. This machine is so powerful it dominates any central vacuum made today. Without a doubt, the Drainvac Twin Turbo has serious power!
