Installation
The Hide-A-Hose System can be installed in both new construction and existing homes, including multi-story homes. The retractable hose is stored in the in-wall tubing while not in use, making the system both easy to use and store.
Traditional (Standard) Central Vacuum Systems can be converted to a Hide-A-Hose Retractable System by adding additional piping in either a crawl space or an attic. Both existing home installations and traditional system conversions can typically be done with no sheetrock repair needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find a local dealer?
Contact us today to get in touch with your local authorized dealer.
Can a Hide-A-Hose system be installed in an existing home?
The Hide-A-Hose system can be installed in most homes when there is access to an attic or crawl space. Your local authorized dealer can visit your home to review installation options.
Can you retrofit an existing central vacuum system?
Sometimes. The Hide-A-Hose retractable hose system stores the hose in the PVC tubing using special sweep 90's and 45's. Available attic or crawl space can be used to add these pipe runs, which could then be connected to your existing system. Your local authorized dealer would also evaluate your power unit and tools for use with the Hide-A-Hose system.
How noisy is a central vacuum system?
Central vacuum systems are quieter than their portable counterparts. The motor is located in a remote area, like a garage or utility room, reducing noise within the living space. The Hide-A-Hose system takes this a step further with its innovative design that enhances noise reduction.
Are central vacuums easy to use?
Central vacuum systems are designed for convenience; however, the Hide-A-Hose Central Vacuum Retractable Hose System takes convenience to the next level. Instead of lugging around a hose, the retractable feature makes cleaning effortless. Connect, clean, and watch it disappear when you’re done.
How does a central vacuum compare to a portable vacuum?
Hide-A-Hose differs from traditional vacuum cleaners in several significant ways. Firstly, it operates as part of a centralized vacuum system, with a powerful unit typically installed in a garage or utility room. Secondly, Hide-A-Hose features a retractable hose system, allowing users to pull out the desired length of hose from wall-mounted inlets and retract it back into the wall when finished, eliminating the need to maneuver a bulky unit. Thirdly, Hide-A-Hose enhances convenience and mobility during cleaning by eliminating the need to carry or drag a heavy vacuum cleaner from room to room. Lastly, central vacuum systems like Hide-A-Hose provide extensive coverage throughout the home with strategically placed wall inlets, offering greater reach and accessibility during cleaning sessions.
How many inlets should I install based on square footage?
Each inlet contains a hose that can cover between 900 - 2,300 square feet, depending on the length. Hose lengths come in 30, 40, 50, and 60 ft.
How long does installation take?
Once you purchase a Hide-A-Hose the timeline for installation depends on whether you are placing it into a pre-existing home or a new construction home. When installing a retrofitted hose installation only takes one day. However, with new construction homes the installation time frame will vary depending on the construction progress.
How does Hide-A-Hose compare to Chameleon?
The biggest difference between Hide-A-Hose and Chameleon is the way you lock and seal the hose. With our patented locking mechanism you can lock and seal the hose at any length, which allows you to vacuum with full suction without pulling the hose all the way out. In order to lock and seal the Chameleon, you must pull the hose all the way out. A plastic clip can be used to keep the Chameleon hose from retracting, but there is still limited suction.
What is the warranty?
Hide-A-Hose offers an exclusive industry leading warranty for customers to get the most out of their new central vacuum systems.

I dreamed about this and tried to get a contractor to help me make it happen years ago….. yes I am very old…one day years ago I found Hide a Hose ….like to think I wished it here. Joyce helped me with a tiny problem that I created yesterday ! Immediately it was fixed. Love this company ! Customer service is for life!!!!
Obsessed!
I have always loved vacuuming, but with my new Hide-A-Hose system I love it even more. I am actually obsessed with how easy and efficient it is! I am questioning why I ever waited so long to get one installed and highly recommend putting one in your home! It is the first thing I show people when they come to my house. My favorite part is the EBK 250 attachment because the light really shows the dirt and dust on my floors. I am beyond happy with my Hide-A-Hose and look forward to cleaning now.
Makes vacuuming fun & easy!
We’ve had two different central vacuum systems in two other homes. Neither my wife or I liked to pull out the hose in the closet to take to each vacuum port. NO MORE with Hide-a Hose! Now we both love to vacuum!
