VACUUM SYSTEM.
BENEFITS to the Homeowner
NuTone PurePower Series Central Vacuums

than upright and canister systems, they
pull the dirt and dust out of carpets
and upholstery.
BEST DUST FILTRATION
By exhausting the dirt and dust outside of
your home, central vacuums provide you
the cleanest indoor air.
QUIET
With the central vacuum power unit
mounted in the basement, garage or
utility area, the noise is away from your
living area.

carry upstairs or from room to room.
No heavy canister or upright vacuum
to lug around.

SYSTEM PLANNING –
NEW OR EXISTING
CONSTRUCTION
INSTALLATION
Each NuTone Central Cleaning System comes packed
with a Planning & Installing Guide. Whatever your
home layout – multi-level, two-story or ranch – we
have a system to meet your needs. As few as three
or four inlets can take care of an average size home.
Once you’ve determined the right system for you, a
typical system can be installed in a day or less. Just
choose whether you want to do-it-yourself or hire a
professional installer.
FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION
Installation is simple! Plan the location of the
power unit and inlets with your builder or
contractor. Tubing, inlets and electrical hook-up
can be made before drywall, plaster or nished
ooring is in place. You can even “pre-tube” your
home, then select and install the power unit later!
FOR EXISTING CONSTRUCTION
Just determine the number and location of inlets
and cutting through drywall can be kept to a
minimum. Tubing can be run through cold air
returns, closets and stairwells.
NOTE: NuTone Central Cleaning Systems are not designed for wet pick-up.

WALL INLET PLANNING

Automatic dustpan
Power unit
24
In other oor plans, the power unit may be located in the
basement, laundry or utility room.
Average size 3 or 4-bedroom homes may be adequately
serviced with 3 or 4 inlets plus the power unit. Utility
inlets can also be used on patios and porches or in garages.
LET US HELP YOU WITH THE BASICS.
1
What is your home size? Include all areas and oors to be serviced by your
central vacuum system.
Home Size _____________________________________sq. ft.
2
Based on your home size, choose your power unit from the models indicated on
page 11 selection chart.
Power Unit _________________________________________
3
Determine the number of Wall Inlets you will need. As a quick reference for estimating,
we recommend using the relationship of 600 sq. ft. for each Inlet.
Based on the home square footage used above, divide that value by 600.
Always round up for estimating purposes. For example, using a 2,800 sq. ft. home:
Home Size of 2800 ÷ 600 = 4.6, round up to 5 Inlets.
Your Home Size ________________÷ 600 = ___________, round up to ___________Inlets
Type of Wall Inlet Selected _____________________________
Choice considerations:
Select the style Wall Inlet most suited for your needs as shown on pages 20-21.
4
We strongly recommend including at least one Automatic Dustpan for use in kitchens,
pantries, laundry rooms or other locations, which have hard surface ooring.
See page 13 to select the right Automatic Dustpan for you.
For determining the amount of tubing and ttings needed:
5
Typical installations require about 16 ft. of tubing for each Wall Inlet and Automatic
Dustpan used. To estimate the amount of tubing required, multiply the # of Inlets
and Automatic Dustpan ___________ X 16 =__________ft.
Based on the number of Wall Inlets in your system,
select the series kit needed for your style Wall Inlet
as shown on pages 20-21. ______________________
