Carpets add value and comfort to a home. A carpet can be an important part of home décor. They also can be a major investment. Carpets can range in cost from two or three dollars per yard to hundreds of dollars or more per yard. Oriental carpets can cost thousands of dollars. The most important aspect of carpet care is cleaning. A clean carpet will last many years longer and give much more pleasure than a dirty carpet. These easy carpet cleaning tips will make cleaning easy.
Here are 7 easy carpet cleaning tips:
1: Remove shoes.
More than 75% of dirt and grime on a carpet is carried from the outside. If shoes don't touch the carpet, it will remain much cleaner.
2: Vacuum regularly.
Using a vacuum often will pick up dirt particles before they have a chance to get embedded in the carpet fibers. It will also minimize potential health problems caused by pollen, dander and dust. It is also important to vacuum in many directions on a carpet. Only vacuuming in parallel lines will not pick up all the dirt. The vacuum should be moved in overlapping cross-hatch patterns. Baking soda can be sprinkled on the carpet just before vacuuming to remove odor.
3: Steam clean regularly.
Steam cleaning loosens dirt from deep in the carpet fibers. The powerful machines are also able to suck out moisture more efficiently than surface towel drying.
