Do you own a BEAM central vacuum, or are you perhaps looking into investing in one? Just like any other type of appliance in your home, your BEAM central vacuum requires basic maintenance if you want to extend its lifespan and make the most out of your investment.

The good news is that these vacuums are impressively durable, and very little effort is required when maintaining your central vacuum. Let’s have a look at the different components of the system and how you can best look after them.

Filter

Checking and replacing the filter is not only beneficial for your vacuum system, but it is also important if you want to enjoy a clean home. When changing the bag in your central vacuum cleaner, you should always take the opportunity to clean your filter by shaking it vigorously.

Keeping your filter free of dust build-up is one of the easiest ways to extend its lifespan.

Motor

Motors for BEAM central vacuum systems do not require any lubrication or oiling. While there is not much maintenance that can be done, it is always a good idea to have the motor checked by a professional every few years to see whether or not you require a motor replacement.

Hose

When not in use, your hose should be stored on a hose hanger in a clean, dry place. Storing it on the floor increases the chances of it being stepped on, and storing it attached to the wands can cause stress fractures.

Pipe System

To properly look after your pipes and inlet system, it is recommended that you clean the interior of your piping system around once a year. These systems are quite hardy, but parts are not available, so if something breaks, you’ll need to replace the entire inlet system.
