The Retractable Revolution

We are excited to offer the revolutionary Retractable Central Vacuum Hose Systems.

  • Can be installed in most homes at any time, and can be retrofitted into homes that already have a central vac by installing a new wall plate and piping.

 FAQs

  • A retractable hose central vacuum system is similar to a standard central vacuum system. However, the hose retracts! Therefore, there is no need to lug the hose around, coil it, or hang it up in the closet. With a retractable hose system, you can pull out however much hose you need, vacuum, then simply retract the hose back into the wall!

  • Yes! At Central Vacuum, we prioritize a proper and professional installation on every job. You can count on us to install a retractable hose system for your new construction build, or a retrofit for an existing home.

  • With a retractable hose system, you eliminate the hassle of storing a standard central vacuum hose. Instead of coiling up your standard hose and stowing it away, you can have it retract into the wall instead!

    Another benefit of a retractable hose central vacuum system is the ability to pull out any desired length of the hose. With the integrated hose lock, you can pull out a shorter amount of hose for quick clean ups where you don’t need to pull out the entire hose.

  • Yes you can! At Central Vacuum, we specialize in all sorts of projects for your central vacuum needs. We can convert your old inlet valves into retractable hose inlets in often less than a day!

THE RETRACTABLE CENTRAL VACUUM HOSE SYSTEM THAT CHANGES WITH YOUR EVERY CLEANING NEED!

Vacuuming should be convenient, easy and even a little fun. With the Chameleon® Retractable Hose System, it can be all three!

Unlike other central vacuum systems, there is no bulky hose to carry around. Instead, the Chameleon hides the hose inside the vacuum tubing.

For powerful cleaning, simply Pull. Vacuum. Retract.

Chameleon can be used for both quick clean-ups and more thorough vacuum jobs. It's just one of the ways Chameleon changes to meet your cleaning needs! 

Adapts to your Needs
Chameleon is the perfect companion to a central vacuum system. Each valve stores up to a 50' hose to ensure coverage in every part of the home. One valve can cover up to 2,200 sq. ft.! 

Engineered for Performance
Chameleon has been carefully engineered to give you the ultimate retractable hose experience. Features like reduced friction on the hose, magnetic door closures and automatic turn-off provide a seamless vacuum experience. 

Consistent Seal & Auto Lock
Unlike other central vacuum retractable hose systems, Chameleon features an automatic lock and patented dual-seal system. This ensures a consistent seal every time and more vacuum power for your cleaning jobs!

Built-in Handle
Great for both quick clean-ups and more thorough cleaning, Chameleon features a built-in, 360° swivel handle. Use the handle on its own to vacuum up a quick mess or attach a cleaning tool for more versatility.

Industry Best Warranty
Chameleon is backed by an industry-leading Five Year Warranty.  

Chameleon joins the benefits of retractable hoses with the affordability of standard central vac inlets. The result is a true hybrid system of both hose manangement and storage. Perfect for both new construction and existing homes!

We start by installing a Chameleon retractable hose valve in the busiest area of your home. You immediately experience the benefits that a retractable central vac hose brings. We then install standard central vac valves in the other area of your home (or if your home already has a central vac, you use the valves installed).

You carry the Chameleon hose to those valves for complete cleaning coverage. Simply return and retract the hose to the Chameleon valve and repeat when necessary.

Pull.

Pull the hose out until you hear an audible click indicating it is locked into place. Switch the system on.

Vacuum.

Accessories are available for any cleaning job. Just choose your attachment and let the powerful suction do the work.

Retract.

When done, twist the hose counter-clockwise (left) to release. Cover the end with your hand and the hose puts itself away automatically! The system turns off when the handle is in place.
