When I first came across central vacuum systems, quite a few years ago now, I was naturally suspicious.  I did not think that my old, trusty vacuum cleaner could be out done for performance.  Luckily I was persuaded to invest in a central vacuum system and now I always reckon that I do not know how I would get on without it.

It was so much easier and quieter to clean my house with a central vacuum cleaner  than with the old traditional mobile vacuum that was very noisy and cumbersome.  All I had to do was to carry around a long, light-weight hose from inlet to inlet and plug it in and start vacuuming.

Well now even that seems to be considered ‘old hat’.  This is thanks to another development in the type of hose you can use for central vacuum systems.  ‘Hide-a-Hose’ is a retractable hose system that can be used for vacuum systems that are being newly installed, and perhaps more importantly from my point of view, for homes that already have a central vac system fitted.

With this new system, you no longer have to carry around the hose with you, you simply pull from the inlet the amount of hose you require.  When you have finished vacuuming the room or area you are in, the suction from the system will retract the hose back into the inlet and the wall.  You then carry on to the next inlet and repeat the process.

This development, which like all of the best inventions, is very simple and will further improve the central vacuum cleaning process. I do not intend to let my suspicious nature hold me back this time around.  Let me at it!
