Anyone ever use a big shop vac as a central vac. How does the suction of a
shop vac compare to a central vac. I see some central vacs rated by water
suction height such as 130".


Don't the shop vacs usually say, "not for household dirt" or something like
that? I think their filters are set up for sawdust and such. I know mine
tends to spout a cloud of dust when I turn it on. I think the filter would
clog up pretty fast or just past dust through. That sounds like the kind of
problem you wouldn't want in a whole house cleaner.
