Old central vac question.
My friend just bought a house built in the early 90s and trying to see if we can get the central vac system up and running, ideally so it can use a powered high voltage hose and attachments as well.
Right now it looks like the outlets are low voltage and the hose is suction only.
I know he needs an HVAC tech to come out and assess but just based on these pics does this look like something that can be upgraded to a powered system if it just had different inlet plates with the powered hookup for the hose? Or would it need a wiring overhaul as well for high powered connections?
It’s a Budd branded system. The motor on the main unit in the basement says Model #5807.
Thank you kindly for any insights!
