Haha! I need PVC at least twice that size in my house! Our pets are REALLY messy! :)

I love my central vac! No noise other than the whoosh of the air (when not using the poser head). It has amazing suction. We were going to install it ourselves in a basement storage room but decided to have it installed in the garage to keep the noise out there. It was worth the money to have someone else do the work. We would never have figured out how to get it from the garage and into the house.

Took 2 guys all day and nothing needed to be repaired after they were done. We got a set of attachments for the garage and it's so great to be able to vacuum the cars. Our unit has a filter and not a bag and we only have to empty it about once a year unless we want to do it more often. I plan to add a vac pan to our kitchen in the near future. Best purchase we ever made and it cost about the same or less than some of the name brand vacuums.

Hey Anna- just wanted to let u know they do make a 'wet waste intercept' that can be installed under the kitchen sink for use of kitchen vac units & installing the drawer unit. This way you only have to clean out the small bag in the kitchen sink unit instead of the whole system bag and worry about food participles building up. I would LOVE to have this in my home...I'm so jealous (and your radiant heating is going to be divine)!
