2. DESCRIPTION OF THE VACUUM CLEANER
Constant research applied to central vacuum cleaners and advanced electronic technology have
allowed TECNOPLUS s.r.l. to create TECNO Style.
The central vacuum cleaner, suitable for any type of residential building (private houses, offices, hotels,
service sector), consists of a network of PVC trace pipes, housed in walls or in false ceilings running
through the various rooms; at the end of the pipes suction sockets are positioned.
The SISTEM AIR vacuum cleaner is usually placed in a utility room, garage or other storeroom and
connected to the suction pipes’ network.
The system is switched on by inserting the sleeve coupling of the flexible vacuum cleaning hose in any
of the suction sockets.
If the piping network doesn’t feature any
electrical power supply, the system can be
switched on and off by means of a remote
control device (available upon request).

9.2 Place of installation
The use of the vacuum cleaner requires a suction piping network installed by qualified personnel who
has already selected the most suitable location.
Below you will find the main indications to be followed for a correct installation:
• if the appliance will be connected to a pipe network on more than one floor, we suggest you to install
it in the lowest part of the building.
• install the system in service rooms (e.g. garage or store room) away from bad weather, dampness
and excessive temperature variations.
• Choose a place far from heat sources such as stoves and radiators.
• Make sure that there is sufficient space around the system and that the surrounding area is well lit to
facilitate the interventions for maintenance and repairs.
When the vacuum cleaner, for specific installation needs, is installed on the highest floors of the
building with regard to the level where the pipe network is housed (attic, garret etc.), we suggest
you to install a vacuum cleaner featuring a power category higher than the one needed to clean the
desired surface.
