Tips To Keep Your CarpeT spiC and span

Tip #1 The General rule of thumb is to vacuum your carpet as many times per week as you have people living in the home. That means if you are a family of four, you should be vacuuming at least four times per week. Dirt and dust that is allowed to accumulate in and on your carpet is abrasive and will cause premature wearing and deterioration of the carpet. That’s why it is vital to keep your carpets clean.

Before Carpet Cleaning • Pick up all the items from carpets.

• Pick up all small area rugs.

• Remove things from the floor of the closet if the closet carpeting will be cleaned.

• Open windows, if weather permits.

• If the house is not left open, turn on the air conditioner or heat, whichever is appropriate.

• If possible, set fans so they blow

Vacuuming The first process of carpet cleaning is vacuuming. While vacuuming, it’s best to use slow steady strokes, both pushing and pulling. Pulling the vacuum cleaner against the grain of the carpet stands the fibers up and exposes embedded soil. Repeat this several times over each area.

Tips to remove carpet stains Alcoholic Beverages • Mix ¼ teaspoon liquid dishwashing detergent in one cup lukewarm water.

• Blot the stain area with the solution and rinse thoroughly with warm water. Rinse several times.

• If the stain persists, try blotting it with a mixture of 2 tablespoons household ammonia per cup of water.

Other method • Blot the stain with a commercial spot remover available at supermarkets or departmental stores.

• Pour fluid onto a cloth rather than directly on the cloth and blot the stain.

• Rinse thoroughly.

After Carpets Are Cleaned • Beware of slippery surfaces when you step from damp carpet to linoleum and other hard floors.

• Don’t put towels or sheets or newspapers on the carpet.

• Vacuum the carpet thoroughly after it is dry with a clean vacuum.

• Don’t move your furniture back until the carpet is completely dry.

Carpet cleaning? Oh no, it’s a tiresome chore!
