Spot Cleaning your carpets it a little like peeling an onion.

 A Spot or stain(S/S) on your carpet, rug curtain or Upholstery is just like an onion. There is particles in the S/S in the manufacture or particles that exist from the environment, let me give you some examples.

- oil is used to create a lot of foods we consume

- Trans Fats

- food colourings   

- Sweeteners

- Sodium


- Iodine fortification


- folic acids 



The environment of your carpet, rug, upholstery or curtain needs to be understood. 

- Pollution


- Pets


- Excessive cooking with oil creates a layer on the fibres


- Soil walked in from outside 

- Workers clothes who works in or near earth





So a Spot or Stain is not as simple one solution clean up in many instances it has many layers like an Onion that need to be removed. If the wrong layer is treated with an incorrect chemical, it may lock it into the fibre. Choosing a trained technician to clean or spot clean your fibres will reduce the chances of this occurring.

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.

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.
