Need an outside-the-box solution for your ultra-specific application? It might be a job for DuroVac’s secret vacuum lab. With help from our custom vacuum experts, no job is too big, too wild, or too complex. We are the mad scientists of industrial vacuum system design.

DuroVac’s core lineup of systems is engineered to address the vast majority of our customers’ applications, but some situations call for a custom vacuum solution. We provide a free initial consultation to see if it’s feasible for your application.
When the time comes to issue a purchase order (PO), we identify key operating parameters, system calculations and selections. We support the PO with a General Arrangement drawing for approval.
Your team collaborates with a dedicated project manager, which allows us to align our deliverables with your specifications. Due to budget or time constraints, some companies opt to skip this step and move straight to Detailed Engineering.
This is where our engineers get started on your custom vacuum systems in earnest. It’s a complete design-build phase that includes a detailed engineering step.
Is your material highly combustible, carcinogenic or otherwise hazardous? We can look at custom filtration systems and extra safety features for you.
Do you work in a high heat plant environment or one with strong magnetic fields? We can put together an extra tough vac to work with you in the trenches.
Do you use a unique system of conveyance or processing equipment that won’t play nicely with regular solutions? We can build a vac that fits your process to a T.
Getting the highest value from a central industrial vacuum system means paying close attention to its design during the planning and installation phases. One of the most important considerations is how many users you expect to be using it at one time if it will be used only for cleaning. This will determine how many power units will be required, which has a significant impact on the initial cost of your system.
Another critical factor is where the inlets should be placed around your facility. In general, these should be placed in areas where they will be easily accessible for workers and allow for a slight overlap in the areas covered by the length of the hoses. The shorter hose you require, the easier it will be to use and store them. This means you should avoid having the inlets spaced too far apart. No matter what your facility’s needs may be, the experts at DuroVac can help you understand all the elements that go into your industrial central vacuum system design and suggest the optimal solutions for meeting them.
