Excellent quiet unused central vacuum system
Description
This is an excellent NuTone central vacuum unit, and I have never installed it. I am including the accessory parts for its installation in a house or garage or both, wherever you would like to put it and connect it to the rooms you want it to serve.
It includes the pipes, elbows, tees, pipe supports, three wall-mount sockets that the hose plugs into, that are shown in the pictures. The sockets contain built-in switches and the wire to connect them to start the NuTone remote vacuum motor unit without having to leave the room where the socket is.
If the building includes a floor that is usually swept with a broom, you can install the special valve included that fits into the back of the toe space at the bottom of a cupboard if the room has a cupboard with a toe space. It provides quick and easy sweeping of floor debris into the system instead of using a hose. It is often preferred in kitchens, hobby areas, mudrooms, etc. If needed, a regular wall-mount socket can can also be installed to provide the option of using a flexible vacuum hose as well.
A wall-mount support for mounting the vacuum unit, an installation instruction booklet and a can of plastic-pipe cement for their installation are included too. There are 8 pieces of 4 foot long pipe= 32 feet plus one piece of pipe which is 3 inches shorter, so there is actually a total of 35 feet plus 9 inches instead of a full 36 feet.
Please note that the group of accessories does not include a flexible vacuum hose because its length might not be suitable for the size of the rooms or hallways in the home where it will be used.
Commonly though, most vacuum accessory stores will provide you with a hose at a length and price to meet your preferences.
The installation parts shown in the pictures should be enough for four rooms including including the one used for sweeping stuff off of the floor with a broom. If more are needed for your house's size and construction they are readily available at home-supply stores for reasonable prices.
A copy of the information that NuTone provides about the central vacuum motor unit's features is here:
"The NuTone VX550 bagless central vacuum unit offers a powerful 550 watt system to clean any home with ease and convenience. The VX550 unit offers both HEPA filtration and anti-microbial protection to remove 99.97% of all dust, dirt and allergens while trapping and removing bacteria better than other competing central vacuum units.
The VX550 features a dual vacuum air intake which allows the pipe line to be connected from the right side, left side, or both if desired. Many central vacuums with the horsepower and wattage of the NuTone would produce a lot of noise; however, the VX550's internal sound suppression sets it apart as the quietest power unit in its class, similar to the Electrolux QuietClean PU3650 central vacuum.
The VX550C bagless central vacuum system by Nutone can be easily installed in new or retrofit situations and offers a slim profile that allows the tank to fit into tight corners"
The various owner's operating and maintenance manuals are available on the internet at this link:

Several years ago, the price of the central vacuum unit (see the first picture) with none of the pipes and other accessory parts needed for installing it was $672.00 U.S. dollars (or $913.00 in Canadian dollars). Later, it was on sale for $560.00 in U.S. dollars (or $761.00 in Canadian dollars.)
I am selling the entire system including the vacuum unit and all of the accessory parts articles for installation that are shown in the pictures for a total of $450 dollars Canadian.
