Carpets, A Guide To Carpet Cleaning


by Ross Bainbridge

A carpet can be quite elegant and serve as a style statement. However, it is essential to apply adequate care in maintaining it, as this is necessary to ensure that the beauty and comfort of your investment lasts.
There are only a few construction materials that offer the advantages that a carpet does. Carpets appear to be expensive but in reality, they prove to be the most economical choices for floor covering. They are found on the floors of residences and commercial buildings and represent a substantial investment. In light of this, it makes sense to maintain them correctly. The care of carpets depends on the materials used and their method by which they were manufactured. Thick pile carpets must be vacuumed frequently in order to keep them clean where as thin pile carpets may require more frequent shampoo treatments.
The life and beauty of all textile materials depend largely on the care that they are given. Proper maintenance can add years of attractive life to the carpet. Specific maintenance procedures for carpets are also determined by the location where the carpet is installed. Proper maintenance in general involves regular vacuuming and periodic cleaning by methods such as hot water extraction, shampoo treatment, bonnet cleaning and foam cleaning.
Regular vacuuming is essential as it removes particulate soil that damages the fibers. This process helps in maintaining the surface appearance of a carpet and keeps the level of soil in the pile at an acceptable level. Vacuuming should be done at least once every two weeks, preferably once each week and even twice per week in areas which have a heavy traffic. Vacuuming removes only the particulate soil and surface dirt; therefore, other methods of cleaning are periodically required to improve the appearance of the carpet. Wet cleaning methods are better for removing oils, greases, coffee, tea or other food products that cause soiling on carpet. When cleaning these spots, it is essential to brush from the outside of the stain to the inside, in order to ensure that the stain doesn’t spread.
Carpets are used to enhance the elegance of a space. Keeping them clean and maintaining them regularly will increase their beauty and life.
