Electrolux (Aereus) Central Vacuums??

Question

Hi all,We are in the market for a central vacuum.  We have looked at a variety ofmodels and were quite impressed with the Electrolux accessory kit (powerheads, hose, etc).  The power unit itself does not have all that impressivespecs.  The Electrolux also seems to be priced higher than some of thehigher end competing brands (we have been quoted $1399 for the unit and allaccessories, but not including installation).  Anyone have experience withElectrolux CV's?  Are they worth the extra expense?TIABart

Unless you are buying from an exclusive dealer, you can spec out different things.  My system uses Nutone inlets and plastic pipe.  The power unit is a Sears, from 1973.  The main hose is Broan.  I did it this way because when I bought the unit (self installed) the Sears represented a reasonable priced bagless system with very high sealed suction.  I didn't like the Sears inlets and pipes because the inlet plates were very large and the piping was smaller diameter than Nutone.  I did have to adapt it at the power unit.  BTW, I still have the sears electric beater unit; I also have 2 others ... don't ask why!BRN wrote:
