Overhead Vacuum Duct Installation (continued)

6 Secure the inlet valve to the valve bracket with the two

wall plate screws.

7 Repeat steps for each wall inlet valve location.

Under the Floor Installation

In homes with a pier and beam foundation or basement,

either the overhead or an under the floor installation can

be made. Sometimes under the floor installation is easier

in an existing home, especially if the roof has a low pitch

and clearances in the attic adds to the installation problem.

Under the floor installation also eliminates encountering

fire blocks in the wall. Shorter risers are also utilized,

eliminating the longer tube drop from the attic.

1 Vacuum tubing should be secured to floor joist with

perforated nailing strips or tube straps.

2 Generally, follow the overhead installation steps, but

from below the floor, to install each wall inlet valve.

Alternate Vacuum Duct Riser Installation

An effective technique highly suitable for many types

of construction with adequate working room inside the

attic is to make drops to the wall inlet valves through the

ceiling, then route the tube through the wall at inlet level

for the inlet valve on the opposite side of the wall. If this

method is used, the drop from the inside of the attic for the

riser can be made in the corner of a closet, utility room,

etc. where the tubing is not visible or not objectionable

to the Homeowner. On occasion this might be the only

alternative for placing an inlet valve in a desired location.

3 Power Unit Installation

Power Unit Unpacking and Pre-assembly

This AirVac power unit is packaged disassembled in a nested configuration which reduces the size of the shipping

carton and allows for much smaller shelf space requirements than previous AirVac models. The power unit must

be assembled during installation.

1 Carefully remove the nested vacuum from the box.

2 Separate each of the nested parts and place them

gently on the floor.

3 Refer to the parts identification figure below to

familiarize yourself with each of the parts.

CAUTION

Do not mount the motor head onto the vacuum

body until AFTER the vacuum body is hung on

the mounting bracket. Placing the motor head

on the vacuum body before mounting causes

the unit to be top heavy and may tip the vacuum

over, causing damage to the vacuum.

4 Connect the 90° steel exhaust elbow to the motor

head. The exhaust elbow can point to the left, right or

vertical depending on the installation requirements.

Secure the exhaust elbow to the motor head flange

with the #4 self‑tapping screw.

5 PLATINUM SERIES ONLY: Install the dust cone inside

the bottom end of the vacuum body as shown in the

figure. Be sure the cone snaps against the large ridge in

the vacuum body. DO NOT PUSH DUST CONE PAST

THE LARGE RIDGE!

6 PLATINUM SERIES ONLY: Install the slide‑gate collar

dust bag into the debris bucket. BE SURE TO FULLY

EXPAND THE BAG WITH YOUR HAND TO FILL THE

BUCKET.

Power Unit Mounting

1 Determine the mounting location for the power unit. Be

sure clearance dimensions are followed. The power

supply cord length is 5 feet. An AC power outlet of the

proper type on a dedicated circuit breaker must be

available within 5 feet so the power supply cord can be

directly plugged into the electrical outlet. DO NOT USE

AN EXTENSION CORD.

2 Use a stud finder to locate a wall stud for attaching the

mounting bracket. Mark the stud location.

3 Attach the mounting bracket to the wall, centered on the

marked stud, with the bottom edge 40" above the floor,

using the two 1/4" x 2" lag screws and a 7/16" socket.

4 Carefully hang the vacuum body by sliding the body's

mounting tab into the mounting bracket slot.

5 Fit the motor head onto the vacuum body with the

controls facing forward latching the two locking snaps.

6 Hang the debris bucket on the two bucket slide latches.

Swing the two slide latch handles up to lock the debris

bucket into place.

7 Slide the exhaust muffler onto the exhaust elbow.

Optional Exhaust Tubing

The vacuum's exhaust can be piped away from the

power unit if desired or required. The exhaust tubing

must vent to the outside of the house, NOT INTO THE

ATTIC. A louvered exhaust vent cap (VM136) is available

to terminate the exhaust tubing. Steel tubing is also

available for the exhaust tubing and may be required by

local building codes.

CAUTION

In order to avoid motor failure resulting from

excessive back pressure, DO NOT install more

than 30 feet of exhaust tubing and DO NOT

install any bends in the exhaust tubing closer

than 18" from the exhaust muffler.

1 Install any optional exhaust tubing following the

guidance above.

2 Connect the optional exhaust tubing to the muffler.

Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least

resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having

an equipment‑grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that

is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

conductor can result in risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service

person if you are in doubt as to whether the

outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the

plug provided with the appliance - if it will not

fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a

qualified electrician.

Power Connection

1 BE SURE THE UNIT'S POWER SWITCH IS OFF.

Plug the line cord into the AC receptacle.

2 Verify that power is available to the vacuum by

MOTOR HEAD

switching the unit's power on then off.

System Testing

TIP DUST CONE

The AirVac central vacuum system should be tested for good suction throughout the system. Use a vacuum gauge

INTO VACUUM BODY

(VM181) at each wall inlet valve location to measure the vacuum suction.
