If you have these inlet valves. The Low Voltage Hose and complete Deluxe Kits and all Electric Kits sold here will NOT FIT into them.
Why Replace Proprietary Inlets? The main reason to upgrade to universal inlets is for the addition of an electric kit for deep, quiet carpet grooming. Buy any electric kit with the pigtail "8ft cord" wall end. Simply plug the hose into the new universal inlet and plug the integrated cord into a nearby electrical outlet. Your new hose will control the electric brush and suction with its 3-way on/off hose handle switch.
Replacing Proprietary Inlets with Industry Standard Inlets. The proprietary inlets can be easily swapped using a Vacuflo Adapter Inlet Upgrade Kit and any Basic Inlet Valve. The cost is minimal and worth every penny. The adapter and inlets are sold below.
