THE VALUE OF A NUTONE PUREPOWER SERIES CENTRAL VACUUM SYSTEM.

B E N E F I T S to the Homeowner

NuTone PurePower Series Central Vacuums combine powerful suction and unmatched filtration, to remove dust and other allergens from your home. Central vacuums exhaust the vacuumed air outside of your home unlike a traditional vacuum that recirculates air back into your living area.

MORE CLEANING POWER Central vacuums are more powerful 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.
BUILT-IN CONVENIENCE The lightweight hose is all you have to carry upstairs or from room to room. No heavy canister or upright vacuum to lug around.
GOOD INVESTMENT Increase the resale value of your home without investing much more than the cost of a portable vacuum.

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 finished flooring 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.
23

WALL INLET PLANNING
Power unit and semi-rigid tubing Convenient automatic inlets Long, flexible hose lets you clean two or three rooms from one inlet Automatic dustpan Power unit
In other floor 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. 24

LET US HELP YOU WITH THE BASICS.

1 What is your home size? Include all areas and floors 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

Choice considerations:

Type of Wall Inlet Selected _____________________________

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 flooring. See page 13 to select the right Automatic Dustpan for you.
Automatic Dustpan_ _______________________ Qty_______________________________
5 For determining the amount of tubing and fittings needed:
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. ______________________
