Built-In Vacuum Systems — Installation & Service by Vacuum Supermarket

​

The Cleanest Home Feature You'll Never See — Until You Need It.
A built-in central vacuum system isn't just a cleaning tool. It's a home upgrade that adds value, removes allergens at the source, and eliminates the noise, weight, and inconvenience of a portable vacuum — forever.
At Vacuum Supermarket, we don't just sell built-in vacuum systems. We supply and install the complete system — from the vacuum unit to every inlet on every floor.

​

What Is a Built-In Central Vacuum System?
A central vacuum system is permanently installed into your home's structure. A powerful motor unit — typically housed in a garage, basement, or utility room — connects through concealed PVC piping to wall-mounted inlets throughout your home. You simply plug a hose into the nearest inlet and clean. Dirt and debris travel through the walls and deposit directly into the main unit — completely out of your living space.
No canister to lug. No allergens recirculated into the air.

Our Built-In Vacuum Services
1.System Supply
We carry MVac — matched to the size, layout, and performance demands of your home. We'll recommend the right vacuum unit for your square footage so you're never under- or over-powered.
2.Full System Installation
We handles everything — mounting the vacuum unit, connecting PVC piping from the walls, and installing wall inlets throughout your home. No mess left behind. No detail overlooked.
3.Retractable Hose System Installation
Want the ultimate in convenience? We install retractable hose systems that take built-in vacuuming one step further if the constructor finishes the inside work. The hose lives inside the wall and retracts automatically after use — no hose to store, carry, or trip over. Simply pull the hose from the inlet, clean, and let it retract itself. It's the most seamless central vacuum experience available, and we handle the complete installation from inlet to retraction mechanism.
4.Accessories & Attachments
From standard cleaning hose sets to specialty tools for pet hair, hardwood floors, and garage cleaning — we stock and order the full range of accessories for your system. One call gets you exactly what you need.
5.System Upgrades & Replacements
Have an older central vac that's losing suction or simply outdated? We can replace components without disturbing your existing piping infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1.What is a built-in central vacuum system?
A central vacuum system consists of a wall-mounted vacuum unit connected through concealed PVC tubing to inlets placed throughout the home. Users plug a lightweight hose into any inlet to vacuum — dirt is carried through the walls to the central unit, completely away from living areas.
2.What is a retractable hose system?
A retractable hose system stores the vacuum hose inside the wall cavity itself. When you need to clean, the hose extends from a special inlet; when you're done, it retracts automatically back into the wall. There is no hose to coil, store, or retrieve from a closet — making it the most convenient central vacuum setup available.
3.Can a retractable hose system be installed in an existing home?
No. You have to plan it when you build home and discuss it with the constructor because the piping work should be done before the constructor seals the walls and floors.
4.What brands of built-in vacuum does Vacuum Supermarket carry?
We carry MVac. But, you can buy other brands and ask us to install it as well. During your consultation, we'll match the right system to your home's size and cleaning requirements.
5.Can a central vacuum system be installed in an existing home?
No. You have to plan it when you build home and discuss it with the constructor because the piping work should be done before the constructor seals the walls and floors.
6.What is a rough-in installation for new construction?
A rough-in is the installation of piping, inlet housings, and the power unit location before interior walls are finished. It's the most cost-effective and cleanest method, but we don't provide this service right now.
7.How many inlets do I need?
The number of inlets depends on your home's square footage and floor plan. As a general guide, one inlet covers approximately 700–1,000 sq ft of cleaning reach. 
8.How long does installation take?
A standard retrofit installation in an average home is typically completed in one day. 
9.Do you supply accessories and replacement parts?
Yes. We stock and order hoses, floor tools, specialty attachments, bags, filters, and replacement components for the systems we install and service.
10.Is a central vacuum system worth it?
Central vacuum systems consistently add resale value to a home, deliver strong suction and convenience, and are shown to reduce airborne allergens more — since exhaust is vented outside the living area rather than back into the room.
That said, filtration method matters. A bagged model is the clear choice — dust and allergens stay sealed inside the bag, so emptying the unit doesn't release fine particles back into your home. Bagless systems undermine the very benefit central vac is built on.
11.Why MVac?
Brand reliability matters just as much. A central vacuum system lives inside your walls for decades — which means long-term serviceability is non-negotiable. That's why we recommend MVac — trusted by home builders and contractors for its reliability and proven track record, with strong parts availability across its entire lineup. Your system can always be repaired, never just replaced.
