Central Vacuum power head question

[twins89]

I have a Dirt Devil central vac in my RV. The head has no rollers on it and it difficult to push. Newer ones have rollers. Does anyone have any idea what or where I can get something that will work with the central vac system and have a rolling head. I like the central vac but not the head.

Hmmmmmm - ordered my 2005 Jayco Designer with the Dirt Devil option.
It came with a powered (by the suction) roller head - that works great.

Would seem that option has been around a long time.
As RockyMt says - try ordering from DD.

As stated above I got my power head on line from Dirt Devil.It was $50.

My labeled "central vacuum" in my 2014 Raptor Toy Hauler has no hookups other than the vac box itself. Therefore it is not a central vacuum system at all. Needless to say, the manufacturer and the sales facilities are being very deceptive promoting it as such, because it's simply a shop vac mounted to the wall.

We did not order the central vac on our new fiver as we were not very impressed with the previous one. We found a small Bissell upright vac at Walmart for $34.00 and it does a 100% better job. Small enough to get into tight spots and fits in the closet.

Power heads are available online for around 50 dollars as I remember.
