What the heck is a central vacuum??

It's a system of pipes in your house that is attached to a vacuum motor. So all you do is walk around the house with a hose. Attach it to a port around the gouse and just hit an on button, instant vacuum.

TIL. Sounds fantastic.

Edit. Well if it worked, which I guess is OPs issue 😂

Big vacuum and collection bin in a somewhat hidden location like a garage or utility room, pipes running through your attic and/ or walls to every room, and connection ports in every room to hook up a hose and often a floor tool. The idea is you can vacuum every room without lugging around a tank or upright vacuum, but in reality lugging around a 20' hose can be just as cumbersome.
