The Plastiflex 35-foot Dual Voltage Central Vacuum Hose with Direct Connect is the extended-reach version of Plastiflex's industry-standard electric hose, providing five additional feet of cleaning range for larger rooms, longer hallways, and open-concept living areas. Like the 30-foot model, this hose carries both 120V for powering electric powerheads and 24V low voltage for on/off control of your central vacuum unit - wired directly into the hose body by Plastiflex, the world's largest central vacuum hose manufacturer.

The 1-3/8 inch diameter crushproof hose body maintains full airflow even under compression, and the direct connect wall end plugs the high-voltage prongs into a compatible electric inlet valve, eliminating the need for a separate pigtail cord and nearby electrical outlet. The ergonomic gas pump handle swivels 360 degrees to prevent hose kinking during cleaning, with a 3-position switch providing off, vacuum-only, and vacuum-plus-powerhead modes from the handle. A built-in airflow regulator allows suction reduction for delicate cleaning tasks.

The 35-foot length is Plastiflex's recommended standard for full-home central vacuum installations. Five additional feet over the 30-foot model translates to meaningful additional reach in large rooms and reduces the number of inlet changes needed in open-concept spaces. The direct connect configuration requires a compatible electric inlet valve - contact Swiss Boy if you are unsure whether your inlet supports direct connect or requires a pigtail hose instead.

Swiss Boy Vacuum stocks Plastiflex dual voltage hoses in both 30-foot and 35-foot direct connect and pigtail configurations. For most new system setups and full-home replacements, we recommend the 35-foot model as the standard choice. Contact Swiss Boy for compatibility advice or to add this hose to a complete system installation package.
