Central Vacuum System - Maintenance
The Villavent vacuum system is developed for regular use with a minimum of maintenance and service.
Maintenance is normally restricted to changing/emptying of the dust bag/canister approximately 2/3 times a year (depending on the frequency of use and the size of your home), as well as regular cleaning of the outside of the power unit.
Changing the Dust Bag
(a) Remove the lid on the dust canister.
(b) Carefully remove the dust bag and make sure that no dust is allowed to escape into the canister.
(c) Remove the dust bag and throw it away.
(d) Unfold the new dust bag and place it into the canister before carefully pushing the opening properly (approx 10cm) into the pipe.
(e) Replace the lid back in position and make sure that it is tight to avoid suction of 'false' air.
