CARPET CARE STEPS
There are many savvy preventative carpet care steps that you can take in the home to help protect your soft surfaces around the clock:
- Use mats at all entranceways for scraping footwear
- Use shoe racks by entrances indoors for footwear
- Use felt protectors under heavy furniture legs
- Keep pet nails trimmed & pet hair brushed regularly to reduce the amount of pet dander on the carpet
Best Carpet Care Practices
Maintaining carpet inside your active home is easier than you may realize! By removing dirt and debris effectively, plus properly treating spills and stains that occur, you can help extend the beauty of your carpet.
Clean spills as soon as possible with clean, dry white cloths. Start blotting the spill with the cloth and warm water, starting from the perimeter and working towards the center of the spill. Repeat this step as needed.
Use a gentle carpet-specific cleaner to spot treat any visible stain, following the manufacturer’s directions closely. We recommend at least 1-2 professional carpet cleanings annually to remove residual stain.
Vacuum your carpet daily or as frequently as possible to remove dirt, debris, pet dander, and other particles before they become abrasive. Match your carpet type with the appropriate model and review your carpet manufacturer’s warranty before investing in a robot vacuum.
