Home Automation…The “KickSweep”

The SLH Home Systems folks installed the Beam central vacuum KickSweep in the kick panel under the pantry cabinet in the kitchen. The KickSweep is turned on and off using your foot and placed so that items swept into the corner are sucked into the central vacuum system. The first photo shows the “business end” of the KickSweep under the cabinet.

The next photo shows the both the KickSweep and the access panel cut into the back of the cabinet that allows access to the back side of the panel. The last photo shows the central vacuum piping as it exits the wall in the basement mechanical room. Anything captured by the central vacuum system will exit this pipe into the main vacuum head unit.
