Best Central Vacuum Troubleshooting Tips

Your central vacuum causing you grief? Not working as it should? Before you run off and panic, you can take some time to inspect the unit itself. Doing so, can save time and money, eliminating potential problems and getting you back to cleaning your home. 

Here are some easy troubleshooting tips that can help you with your central vacuum. 

Central Vacuum Troubleshooting Tips 

Check the Motor & The Brush 

In many cases, the motor of your central vacuum is the reason why it is not working properly. Check it and see how it is operating. If you notice that it is “dry”, it might need some oil or lubrication to get rolling again. If you notice that it is not working at all, then you’ll need vacuum repair in Calgary to handle it. 

The same applies with the brush; if it is not working, you might have to clean it thoroughly, or replace it completely to ensure it works as it should. 

Change or Clean the Filters

Filters are key to a lot of issues that arise with central vacuum systems. Whether because they are blocked with dirt or overused, filters can stop your unit operating as expected. Therefore, it makes sense that you have to clean them or change them often. 

When it comes to cleaning your filter, empty the canister, or if your system has filter bags, you’ll need to remember to replace them. To clean the reusable central vac filters, use soap and water, and then allow the filters to dry before putting them back in the vacuum.

Vacuum Cleaner/Appliance Repair Background

Check to see if it is completely clean before proceeding with your cleaning. 

It is recommended that you replace your filters about two to four times a year. This will depend though on your system and unit. 

Remove Clogs and Dirt

Sticky or moist substances can clog up your system, resulting in issues. The best way to go about fixing this is simple: remove it! 

Just feed a cloth into the hose while the central vacuum is running, and then let the cloth come out the other end. You can also “reverse direction” the hose and put the cloth through the other end. This should wipe through all the debris that has accumulated, giving you a smoother central vacuum unit. 

If you’re really having trouble, you can contact a professional to remove clogs as well.

Schedule Regular Inspections

Booking in consistent appointments with your vacuum store in Calgary can ensure that you always have a perfectly running system. 

Experts will always know exactly what your central vacuum needs, and prepare it for any potential problems in the future. In general, there are some maintenance tasks that only professionals can do.

Overall, by going to an expert, this will save you more in repairs and time than you think.
