Hide-A-Hose Retractable Central Vacuum: Is It Worth It?

If you have been researching central vacuum systems long enough, you have probably come across Hide-A-Hose. It is the system where the hose lives inside the wall, you pull out however much you need, clean, and then the suction automatically retracts it back out of sight. It sounds almost too convenient — and the extra cost gives some people pause. So is it actually worth it?

The Air Inside Your Home Is More Important Than You Think

The Air Inside Your Home Is More Important Than You Think

Most people think of air quality as an outdoor problem — smog, wildfire smoke, traffic exhaust. The air inside your home, sealed off from all of that, must be fine. In reality, the opposite is often true. Studies by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have found that indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air, and in some cases significantly worse. For most adults, who spend roughly 90 percent of their time indoors, that is not a statistic to overlook.

Understanding what is actually in your indoor air — and what it does to you — is the first step toward doing something about it.

"Before I saw the Hide A Hose system I wasn’t sure I was going to get a central vacuum system for my new house. I was tired of lugging a bulky hose from inlet to inlet, up and down the steps, and especially shoving it in a closet when I was done, but I knew a portable vacuum was even worse. The Hide A Hose system may be the coolest thing in my new home..." Hudson, OH
