WEBSTER CITY, Iowa – February 07, 2007 – Central vacuum system owners now can have added storage and cleaning convenience of a first-of-its-kind telescopic central vacuum hose with vac-u-store™, available exclusively from Beam.

A simple pull of the vac-u-store hose handle extends the vac-u-store hose from 12- feet to up 30 feet. The hose retracts to 12-feet long with a push of a button on the handle. Any air-driven or air powered central vacuum cleaning tool can be attached to the hose handle, making vac-u-store a convenient accessory for cleaning hard-surface floors, upholstery, window treatments, stairs and many other surfaces.

The light-weight, kink-free hose increases convenience when moving from room to room and requires less than half the storage space of a conventional central vacuum system hose.
