Every home owns one or more carpets that spread warmth in the room. Having a carpet adds to the style and comfort of the home.

A good carpet additionally provides safety by providing the cushioning and making the floor non-slippery.

As compared to cleaning and maintaining the hard surfaces, the carpets are comparatively easy to maintain and hence reduces the cost of maintenance.

Carpet Cleaning Tips:

As mentioned above, while it is always healthy and cozy to have carpets, it is also necessary to make sure that they are cleaned thoroughly on a regular basis.

  • For the ease and effectiveness of the cleanliness, an upright vacuum cleaner with a seal of approval certificate should be used. The suction control based on the type of carpet is important to keep in mind.
  • Any spills or spots need immediate attention. The delay in cleaning the same may damage the carpet as it becomes more prone to resoiling.
  • Get the deep cleaning done by professionals every 9 to 12 months.

Methods Of Cleaning The Carpet:

Depending upon the type of carpet and the cleaning instructions mentioned, you can use one of the following methods to clean your carpet.

  • If your carpet is small and the label says “machine washable”, shake the carpet outside and then wash it in the machine with mild detergent and recommended temperature.
  • Medium-sized and easy to pick carpets can be cleaned by shaking them outside and then beating it gently. Subsequently, vacuum it for the best result.
  • If the label says “dry clean”, carpet should be vacuumed on a regular basis. It should be dry cleaned by the professionals every six to eight months.

How To Deal With Stubborn Stains:

Besides basic cleaning techniques, there are some stubborn stains that need to be dealt in a special way. First and foremost is to clean them immediately. Some of the toughest stains to remove are:

  • Cooking Oil Stains: Enzyme-based liquids and warm water can remove this stubborn stain.
