In 1913 the first electrical refrigerator was sold. In 1915, Alfred Mellowes improved on the original model and the Guardian Frigerator Company (Frigidaire) was created in 1916 to manufacturer these refrigerators.

In 1918, General Motors (GM) purchased the Guardian Frigerator Company and applied mass production techniques, improved all facilities, and created more sales offices as well as changing the company name to Frigidaire. All these advancements gave Frigidaire the boost it needed and the company took off growing exponentially.

In 1979 Frigidaire was sold to the White Sewing Machine Company. In 1986, Electrolux purchased the company and acquired the Frigidaire brand.

Electrolux now manufactures Frigidaire central vacuum power units. Most Frigidaire central vacuum power units feature:

• Self Cleaning Filters: Never worry about cleaning out your filter or having a loss of power due to a clogged filter. Frigidaire power units feature a self cleaning filter that saves you time and money.
• Easy Installation: Frigidaire central vacuums can be easily installed within your home or outside in the garage.
• 5-Year Limited Lifetime Warranty: Frigidaire built-in central vacuums come with a 5-year warranty on the motor and electronics. They also guarantee the power unit body and filter to be free of defects in material and workmanship from the date of purchase until the system is removed from the original installation location.
