Central vacuum cleaners move the vacuum motor to outside the livable areas of the home. With a central vacuum system there will be vacuum inlets provided throughout the home. These inlets will be connected to the vacuum motor with plastic piping that runs through the walls and attic. With the vacuum motor being remotely located you will only need to carry the hose and pickup head from room to room. Benefits of the central vacuum system are a more powerful vacuum system and improved indoor air quality. Unlike conventional vacuums that can re-circulate dust, central vacuum systems typically removes 100% of contacted dirt, dust mites, pollen, dander, and other allergens and carries them from the living areas to the vacuum motor usually located in the garage – to help improve indoor air quality.

Routers are frequently used in homes and business to connect to Internet services. A router allows multiple devices,such as computers, printers or PDA's, to connect to the Internet through a single cable or DSL modem.
Just like your body needs a system to transmit and communicate important information so does your home or business. The structured cabling constitutes all the TV, telephone, network, audio, video, and automation cabling. These are the paths the signals follow in order to bring it all together and make it all work, a critical element. A well designed and thought out structured cabling plan will allow you to do what you want to do now and afford you some flexibility well into the future.
