Anyone ever deal with odor from a central vacuum system?

Something to consider

Had that cleaned as well. They ran a deoderizer through the system as well. The guy that did it commented that he didn't smell anything either. It was cleaned for the first time since it was built 8 years ago, but the guy said the ducts weren't really dirty compared to a lot of them he cleans.

Something else that doesn't help matters is that it's vacant and allowing the air to get what I would call "stale" compared to doors being opened daily. I do try to get over and put a powder in the carpet and vacuum prior to a showing. The agent isn't keen on spraying a lot of stuff because it'll make buyers leery that you're hiding something.

I was wondering this as well. Stagnant air can have a weird smell.

Instead of spraying carpet powder, buy a frozen apple pie and throw it in the oven. That would 1) smell awesome, and 2) be a nice treat.
