ALL
YOU NEED is a 30 foot cord or
rope to represent the 30 foot hose. The
hose, itself is 30 feet long, not including the
metal ends and the wands.
 Pick
tentative inlet locations which are
accessible and which will not find
themselves behind furniture or
cabinets. Try to locate inlets in
halls and next to a door or opening...not in
the middle of a wall.- Have someone hold one end of the cord at
the inlet location. Move around to see
if you can reach all corners. Bear in
mind that there may be tables, beds,
cabinets, and other obstructions at some
future time.
- After you have picked locations, check to
be sure that there are no beams, pipes, or
ducts to prevent you from piping to the
proposed location.
- You can pipe upward and downward from an
inlet location. In two story homes or
ranch houses, it is common to pipe inlets up
to the attic. You connect together all
inlets in the attic and go down to the
basement or garage with one pipe.
 You
can expose pipes in a closet or a cabinet.- Inlets are available for flush mounting in
a sheetrocked wall and for surface mounting
on columns or masonry. Inlets are
available in white, ivory and chocolate
brown.
- Each inlet has switching built in to turn
the motor on when the hose is plugged
in. Some operate by raising and
lowering the door. Others turn on when
the hose is plugged in.
- It's a good idea to locate a 110 volt
electrical outlet near each vacuum inlet
just in case you decide to get an
electrically powered rotating brush in the
future.
