The concept of Central Vac is also very strange
to me... For the price of a CV system you could
put an Orek XL on every floor of your home (Amd
most rooms in some cases) and then not have to
lug around the goofy 30+ft hose kit....
Very Strange..........
The biggest advantage to the central vac is far more power, more suction, and all the bad things leave your house. HEPA filters and all the other stuff aside, if you suck dust and allergens into a bag stored inside your house, they're still inside your house. If you suck them into a canister in your garage, that is vented to the outside, then you get the kooties outta the house altogether, AND...you have to empty it about twice a year!
