PB12 vs PB14 — Which One?
Both power heads share the same 150W motor, 5,000 RPM brush, cogged belt drive, brush pressure adjustment, and quick roller replacement — the difference is purely width. The PB12 cleans a 10.6-inch brush path, making it the right choice for smaller homes, furnished rooms, tight hallways, and stairs, where a nimble head saves more time than a wide one. If your home has large open carpeted areas, the Lindhaus PB14 power head covers a 13.8-inch brush path — about 30% more carpet per pass. Not sure which fits your central vacuum system? Call us at 763-535-0770 and we’ll confirm compatibility before you order.
The Lindhaus PB12 (model PB12e) is an electric power nozzle for central vacuum systems with an 11.8-inch vacuum width and 10.6-inch brush spinning at 5,000 rpm from a 150-watt motor. Electronic overload control, double insulation, a cogged drive belt, adjustable brush pressure, quick roller replacement, and the DCS dry cleaning system are all standard; an LED version is optional.
Cordless option: the PB14e L-ION battery power brush delivers the same Lindhaus agitation with no electrified hose required — it works on straight-suction central systems and canisters alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Lindhaus PB12 power head do on a central vacuum system?
It adds motorized carpet agitation to a central vacuum. The central vac provides suction; the PB12’s own 150W motor spins a 5,000 RPM brush roller that lifts embedded dirt out of carpet pile — cleaning performance plain suction-only floor tools can’t match.
How wide is the PB12’s cleaning path?
The PB12 vacuums an 11.8-inch path and brushes a 10.6-inch path. That compact footprint is its main advantage over the wider PB14 in furnished rooms, hallways, and stairs.
Should I choose the PB12 or the PB14?
Choose the PB12 for smaller or more furnished spaces; choose the PB14 (15-inch vacuum path, 13.8-inch brush path) for large open carpeted areas — the motor, brush speed, and drive system are otherwise identical.
Does the PB12 work on hard floors as well as carpet?
Per Lindhaus, the PB12e central includes the Dry Cleaning System (DCS) as standard and brush pressure adjustment, letting it transition between carpet and hard surfaces.
