Professional Carpet Cleaner Vs Traditional Carpet Cleaning Methods
Carpets require lots of care in order to stay clean over time But should you invest in a professional carpet cleaner or just use a vacuum cleaner and whatever is in the house?
Using traditional methods to clean your carpets
Carpets should be vacuumed at least once a week to remove particles which can potentially harm the fibres. More frequent vacuuming may be necessary in areas where a lot of dirt collects such as at the entrance to the house or in corridors.
A quick blast of the hoover once a week is fine, however your carpet will need a more thorough clean every so often in order to retain its quality.
You can add a soil retardant to the carpet after it’s cleaned or to a new carpet.
But what about stains?
Every carpet sees a few spills and stains eventually.With light carpets being so popular nowadays, it’s important to clean these immediately, to avoid the stain soaking in and remaining there forever. Without a professional carpet cleaner, you are left with a few choices for cleaning the stain
Putting bicarbonate of soda over a stain will help soak some of it up if done quickly enough The bicarb can then be vacuumed off. It’s important to blot the stain quickly, putting a towel or a sponge over it and weighing it down if necessary. Do not be tempted to rub the stain, as this can worsen the stain through spreading it around a larger area or pushing it into the fibres. Test your carpet before applying a cleaning solution, as some solutions can damage the colour of some carpets. A good tip to avoid spreading the stain, is to apply the solution working it from the outside in.
The other option – a professional carpet cleaner
Manually cleaning stains and vacuuming separately in the home may not be perfect, but it works. However, for organisations such as, hotels that constantly require thoroughly clean carpets, cleaning stains by hand can be terribly time consuming and expensive With a professional carpet cleaner you can easily vacuum and remove stains at the same time, maintaining the healthy look and feel of the carpets with one easy step.
Even home owners invest in either buying or renting a professional carpet cleaner, as they are the best way to prepare for selling your house or securing the return of a deposit An hour of cleaning the house with a professional carpet cleaner is a far better option that spending hours on your hands and knees scrubbing at stains after vacuuming carpets for ages.
While buying a professional carpet cleaner may be a bit too expensive for the casual user (who may prefer to rent one instead), for a business it can be an useful and economic expense, saving countless man hours and achieving the desired results, which may not be possible using traditional methods. It’s essential to read the user guide or specification of your carpet cleaner to ensure you use it correctly and apply the correct amount of solution. Beware of false economy – cheaper models that are cheaper to buy, but will require more solution in the long run, thus will end up costing you more than you bargained for. A professional machine should be economic to run, allowing you to make back the money you spent in the time saved, without increasing your expenses unnecessarily
