Low Voltage Wire; Test The System - Hide-A-Hose HPHS5000W Installation Manual

When using the Rapid Flex hose,
we recommend installation of a
reducer in the pipe run, before the
first standard fitting. This prevents
the possibility of the hose
getting stuck in a tight fitting, if
it stretches when retracted. See
diagram below for positioning.

Low Voltage Wire

Run low voltage wire to each inlet, just as you would with a standard
central vacuum install.

Test the System

It is a good idea to test the system by retracting a hose before the walls are
sheetrocked.
Since the doors are needed to seal the system, a hand ball can be placed
over each valve opening that is not being tested to seal the system. In an
up orientation, you will need to tape the hand ball in place.
Using a portable source of vacuum, check the system for sealed vacuum.
Sealed vacuum at the valve should not vary more than three to five inches
from the sealed vacuum at the power unit.
