| Plan the piping
installation from the Beam power unit to the inlet valves.
It's best to run the piping under the floor if possible.
In structures without basements, the piping may be run
through the attic or crawlspaces. In an existing two-
or three-story home, vacuum piping may be run to upper
levels through cold air ducts, through the back of closets
or under stairways, or beside a soil pipe. In new structures,
pipe can be run through wall studs before drywall is applied.
Be sure to plan where to locate the Beam power unit —
usually in the garage or basement. |

Use 2-1/4" wood boring bit similar to a Forstner bit.
Rent a right-angle drill if you do not have one.
 Please check local building codes before installing as regulations vary across Canada.
