Abstract: A cutout (4) is made in a room wall (2) and flexible tubing (13) connected to a vacuum conduit (12) is pulled therethrough. A box (1) is attached to the tubing and includes a frame portion (15) for surrounding the cutout, and inwardly recessed portion (18) having side and top and bottom walls (19-22) and a back wall (23), and outwardly and inwardly extending annular connector flanges (25, 26) for connecting to the vacuum wand and the conduit flexible tubing. After the conduit tubing and box are connected, the box is pushed inwardly so that its recessed portion extends through the cutout into the wall. A slot (29, 30) is provided in each vertical sidewall of the box with the slot extending into the back wall so that it is generally L-shaped in section. A generally Z-shaped clip (33) having a long leg (35) and short leg (34) joined by a web (36) is provided for each slot.
