Why every home should have one:
ADVANTAGES A CVC is MORE POWERFUL
With an ordinary vacuum cleaner, you have to carry the electric motor and suction fan with you when cleaning. With a central vacuum system, the motor and fan are fixed in a remote position, which means you can have a more powerful motor with a bigger fan, producing much more suction. More suction equals more penetrating cleaning so you can clean more floor in less time.
A CVC is MORE THOROUGH
The air sucked in by a central vacuum system is expelled to the outside. This results in cleaner rooms with cleaner air. With an ordinary cleaner, the air is re-circulated back into the room, carrying with it the microscopic particles of dust that pass through the filter. (These particles can be clearly seen when the sunlight streams in through the window.) A central vacuum system sucks in dust with the airflow and carries it to the vacuum unit. | ||
![]() | A CVC is MORE EFFICIENT A central vacuum unit from Elek Trends has two stage filtration which makes it more effective. In the first stage, around 90% of the dust is separated from the air by the cyclone effect, illustrated on the left. The second stage is a self-cleaning textile filter which removes the rest. The debris falls into a large removable container underneath, which only needs to be emptied a few times a year. When you first start using a built in vacuum cleaner to clean your carpets, you will need to empty the dust container a little more frequently as it collects all the ingrained grit & dust left behind in your carpets by a conventional vacuum cleaner. Not all makes of built in vacuum system offer 2-stage filtration with the cyclone effect. | |||||
A CVC is QUIETER Because a central vacuum system is fitted away from the normal living area, you can listen to the radio, talk on the phone, and even hear the doorbell while you are vacuuming. Our built in vacuums come with a sound reduction kit fitted as standard - this makes them some of the quietest available. | ||||||

Not all vacuum systems are the same...BUT what's the difference? No other central vacuum system uses this unique "anti-block" elbow to prevent blockages. The photograph on the right shows the white bend used in most other systems and the tight 90 degree grey elbow that CVC supply to stop awkward items entering the system and causing a blockage elsewhere. The grey elbow will trap items that can pass through the white bend. | ||||||||

What some of our customers think: Thank you Tim and Anna for your excellent and friendly service. We only came for a central vacuum system but over the months ended up buying a heat recovery system too. Your range of odd ducting pieces to solve those fiddly bits in the installation made such a difference. We can’t wait to get into the new log house and start cleaning! Kim and Bernadette Hull and family http://www.ecologhouse.org/heat-recovery-and-central-vacuum-returns.html
"I would like to thank you for all your help and advice in the design of the CVC system we built in to our holiday cottages, it has been a great success. We only have a 4 hour window to clean the cottages, and the thought of lugging a hoover up and down three flights of stairs and putting up with the noise, would make the whole prospect very daunting. The CVC system is very powerful, light, quick, quiet, clean and easy. A fantastic piece of kit! Thanks again" - Charles McGowan, Southlands Farm Cottages www.southlandsfarmcottages.co.uk
"... I would like to offer my thanks for the prompt despatch of the accessories. We are delighted with the system, the installation was straightforward and the performance is superb. Many thanks for your help and advice." - Mr P, Renfrewshire
"-- I just wanted to compliment yourselves on a great service. I ordered the cleaner on Monday – it was delivered on Wednesday morning and installed by myself on Wednesday evening – it works well and was an easy installation with all the minor parts included for the job.
Our last central Vac was 15 years old and past its best.
Thanks again" - Mr S, Montrose
"I would like to take this opportunity to say how absolutely thrilled I am with the Central Vac System we recently bought from you. My husband found it relatively easy to install and it makes vacuuming almost a pleasure. How sad is that!! Seriously along with the underfloor heating it is the best thing we installed into our newly renovated house. I must also add how reliable and professional we found your company." - Mrs F, Devon
"We fitted the Vacuum today. The Developer was very happy with the quality of the system. He especially liked the modern design of the hose kit but was disappointed that we had not fitted the (Elek Trends) stainless steel wall terminals as the Beam ones were so basic looking. He accepts that we are too late to change them now. I will have no problem selling your system for future houses.
I was impressed with all of the above but also with the quality of the pipe fittings and cuttings of pipe you sent." - Mr M, Scotland
"May I take this opportunity to thank you for all the help you provided when we purchased the system - we are delighted with it." - Dr E, Birmingham You can ring us free on 0800 0830 431 (or +44 1491 836 666 from outside the UK) Enquiries from the Irish Republic click here: Ireland Click here for enquiries from Northern Ireland
