How to Vacuum a rug or carpet. Using the right tools

How to Vacuum a rug or carpet fibre ?

This can be easy with the right equipment and fibre. Your fibre will determine the vacuum you buy.

Check out this list to decide which features or functions are must-haves for your new vacuum.

Power head or turbo head

A power head replaces the standard cleaning head and has an inbuilt motor that operates the brush. Using one generally improves dirt removal from carpets, whereas a turbo head (which uses airflow to operate the extra brush) is usually less effective. These attachments are designed to boost cleaning performance but tend to make vacuums bulkier and/or heavier and they may not be as easy to use or manoeuvre.

Tools

Tools such as a crevice nozzle (for narrow corners and around chair cushions), an upholstery brush (for curtains and soft furnishings) and a dusting brush can be very handy. Check whether these tools are supplied with the vacuum cleaner or if they're optional extras.

Telescopic wand

This lets you adjust the wand to suit your height, so you can vacuum without bending your back too much. If you're tall, try to test the model in-store to ensure it's long enough for you.

Adjustable head height

This feature's useful if you have carpets with different pile heights, and also for wooden or tiled floors.

Variable suction/power

A control on the wand that allows you to vary the suction for more delicate jobs, such as cleaning curtains.

Dustbag-full indicator

This handy feature lets you know when the dust collector is full without having to open the vacuum.

Blower

A vacuum that can reverse the airflow to blow air continuously is a godsend when it's time to blow up the airbed!

Onboard storage for accessories

Handy when you are cleaning edges and upholstery, and/or dusting furniture whilst vacuuming.

Wand storage

Allows the wand to be attached neatly to the cleaner when storing. This is useful for keeping all the bits together.

Retractable cord

This is much easier than winding up the cord manually! Uprights don't have this feature, but you can wind the cord around two hooks to keep it tidy.

HEPA filter

This stands for high-efficiency particulate air filtration. It's an international standard for filters that trap minute particles. This type of filter can help if you have asthma or a dust allergy or sensitivity, but you have to clean or replace it regularly (about once a year) to ensure it works efficiently - which may mean more ongoing costs. Given that vacuums with a HEPA filter are usually more expensive, do you really need one? If you have asthma, a dust allergy or are simply sensitive to dust, it can help, though for asthma sufferers it's not likely to be the complete answer to house dirt. Read more about HEPA filters, asthma and allergies here.

Cleaning Rugs and Mats today Customweave carpets and rugs

Today I am cleaning 100% woolen Custom Weave Rug Shag designer style

 I am also cleaning 8 White 100% nylon rugs, these have been made to order. The rugs are used in Weddings. The rugs are challenging to clean as they are some times laid on grass or dirt surface, the backing will absorb some of the surface, when cleaning it will bleed into the fibre. Both sides are cleaned to produce a clean result. These rugs can be put into a rug bath to get the best result. 

How do I look after my carpet?

Your carpets installation will need maintenance to keep the investment looking good and maximise the carpets life. 

We recommend a repair service every 7-10 years, cleaning should be done 3-6months(commercial) 6-24 Months(Domestic) this will assist you to get the most use from the carpet. Too many carpets are thrown away when the age is 7-10 years, these product are produced to last 20+ years when looked after correctly. We have programs for both commercial and domestic to keep your carpet clean and healthy.

Bayliss Rug Shiver - Cleaning

Mrs J from Black Rock  had spilt some chocolate from her fondue on her Rug, the Rug was an Art Silk from Bayliss rugs. Art Silk  rugs ar emade from Rayon or polyester, careful planning of the spot removal needs to take place or the fiber will lay down.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayon

A dry clean is preferable with no water. Most of the stain needs to removed dry before and chemical application. You only get one maybe two applications before it turns to "paper machete' .

Urine on Carpets Urine on Rugs

Urine on carpets and rugs creates a real challenge to technicians 

“Urine smell from pets can ruin the most beautiful of homes. What makes dealing with that urine smell especially difficult is that after just a few weeks, the unsuspecting pet owner can become completely desensitized to the smell, not realizing how offensive it really is to visiting family and friends.

Urine smell from pets goes beyond home owner embarrassment. If you are considering putting your home on the market; that offensive odor will directly affect the sale price.”

Dr. Becker's Comments:

If you have a pet, especially a dog, there’s a very good chance you’ve dealt with at least a few puppy piddle accidents in your home. Hopefully you’ve had only a few and your adult dog is now thoroughly housebroken and wouldn’t dream of peeing indoors.

But what if you have a new puppy or perhaps an adult dog you’ve adopted that hasn’t been properly trained in the fine art of not soiling your house?

The very first thing I recommend is to purchase a crate and begin housetraining your dog immediately.

Stop the Problem Before It Starts

The very best way to prevent puppy piddles from ruining the look, smell, comfort and even the value of your home is to do a top-notch job housebreaking your canine companion.

For a thorough and hopefully enlightening discussion on how to prevent potty problems, crate training, and other helpful tips to get your pooch squared away in the toileting department, view my video series on how to housebreak a dog of any age.

You’ll meet Meredith, an older stray I rescued by the side of the road on the way to work one morning, and follow along as I take her from her squat-wherever-she-happened-to-be routine to a near-perfect example of a well house trained pet.

Most cats are very easy to manage because they instinctively look for surfaces that allow them to bury their waste. A litter box filled with a few inches of clean litter is all the encouragement most kitties need to eliminate in the right spot.

You can learn all about litter, litter boxes, and how to select the right supplies for your own kitty here.

Go here to learn what to look for if your cat's elimination habits suddenly change.

Make No Mistake -- Accidents Will Happen

Even after your pup is thoroughly housebroken or your kitty is a veteran at using the litter box, if you’re a pet parent, you WILL have the occasional mess to clean up.

Your dog may get a temporary bout of diarrhea or drink too much water and wait too long to be walked. Your cat may develop a urinary tract problem and eliminate outside her box, or she may throw up a hairball.

Aging pets, just like elderly people, occasionally have a bathroom accident.

It’s a fact of life with pets, just as it is with children that messes will happen.

Once you’ve done all you can do to set your pet up for success, the only thing left is to anticipate the occasional accident and arm yourself with the supplies you’ll need to do a thorough cleanup.

Rust : We must define what rust is :
Oxford Dictionary

 Noun A reddish- or yellowish-brown flaking coating of iron oxide that is formed on iron or steel by oxidation, especially in the presence of moisture:

So for rust to form on our precious fibers there needs to be moisture and a iron or steel to create and iron oxide. Carpet and rugs are usually effected by a chair,table or furniture tip rusting. These tips are insterted into the legs to protect the furniture and can rust when moisture is present.
