REPLACING A POWER UNIT

The power unit is usually mounted in the garage, basement, utility room, storage room, or mud room to remove dust and allergens from living areas.

Most central vacuum manufacturers design their mounting hardware so that the unit can easily be removed form the wall for replacement or service. If mounting on plaster, wall board or panel walls, be sure the mounting bolts enter studs. If mounting on a block or concrete wall, drill the holes with a masonry bit and insert plastic or lead anchors.
