How to Keep Clean Carpets
- Control the Soil. The worst and most abrasive soil tends to accumulate in the first few feet of the entry of your home or building.
- A good walk off mat can prevent soil from destroying your carpet.Walk off mats must be vacuumed and cleaned on a regular basis. If walk off mats are allowed to accumulate soil until they are saturated, the soil will begin to accumulate on the adjoining carpet thus deferring the purpose.
- Proper vacuuming is the most important maintenance is proper vacuuming on a regular basis at least twice a week or three times a week is better. Vacuuming if done right picks up 79% of dry soil off your carpet Glue down or carpet tiles, should be vacuumed more frequently due to more traffic. Using a commercial vacuum that uses two motors one for the vaccum and one for the brush. Homeowners be aware don ever let a cleaning company use any vacuum other than your own. By bringing in a vacuum that has been used elsewhere(this may had been used at a home with lice, fleas, mold,etc)you can cross contaminate.
- Spot Cleaning. Most fresh spills can be removed with clear water or a mild detergent. I recommend soapfree procyon, not the spot removers that you can buy at your supermarket. Why? because most of those products contain oil or soap which attract more stains. It is important to remember never to scrub on your carpet, this can distort face fiber and appear worn. Just blot at the stain and absorb as much moister as possible.
We love cleaning with green products because we protect our health without harming the environment. Green products also improve the indoor air quality in our homes.
