Inspector’s Tip - Central Vacuums
If you have a central vacuum system, ensure that it exhausts to the outside of the house. This is important because otherwise, dust, dust mites, dirt, pet dander, and allergens could remain in the house. This is true even if you have the latest and best filter system. Despite our great technological advances, no existing filter systems even the most advanced “Hepa” types are 100% efficient. The smallest particles will get through. If you suffer from allergies venting the central vacuum outside can make a significant difference.
