A long-lasting carpet can be achieved with professional carpet cleaning or do-it-yourself techniques. Regular carpet cleaning removes toxins and allergens that get into the rug. The air in your home will stay fresher with all of this removed. Even if dust and allergens are not visible, you can still spread them from walking on the carpet. A professional carpet cleaning service may use several techniques to clean your carpet.
A popular carpet cleaning method is dry chemical which is often a foam. The substance is placed on the dry carpet and removed by machine. The trouble with this method is it does not clean deeply nor rinse with water. However, it can quickly clean large areas. Dry foam cleaning will not saturate the carpet since moisture content is low. Foam cleaning is ideal for older carpets. Another popular technique is steam cleaning. A professional service may use various kinds of steam cleaning. One preferred method of steam cleaning is the truck mount. The truck mount uses power from the company truck to operate. The chemicals are rinsed with soft hot water. Truck mount cleaning will not leave behind residue and the carpet dries faster than with a portable machine. The most recent cleaning method is dry steam. The dry steam method also uses a truck mount but without a jet tool. Carpets can be dry in less than three hours.
Once your carpet gets clean, you need to maintain it. Do not vacuum or walk on carpet until it is completely dry. To reduce dust particles getting in the air, you must change the vacuum cleaner bag regularly. Dust and dander can settle in the bag and be released in the air again when you vacuum which defeats the reason for cleaning. To lower the amount of allergens in the carpet, you can spray chemicals that get rid of them.
Though you can clean carpet yourself, it can take hours. Professional cleaner have all the needed tools and know the best method to clean your carpet. A professional service is ideal if you have a busy schedule. You want to choose the safest carpet cleaning technique to help carpets last.
