HOW TO CLEAN CARPET AND RUGS WITHOUT PROFESSIONAL HELP?

Carpets and rugs are key elements in beautifying homes, offices, hotels and other commercial spaces. One can use carpets as a foundation point and play with different colour palettes, textures and patterns to create beautiful interiors. Carpets are a reflection of one’s personal choice and style.

BENEFITS OF CARPETS

  • Carpets provide warmth and comfort

In cold weather, carpet retains warm air longer than other flooring types. In addition to keeping your home cozy in the winter, it also keeps electricity bills down. Carpets are comfortable to sit on, play, or work and lend your home a warm and hospitable feeling.

 

  • Carpet Improves Indoor Air Quality

Carpets are low volatile organic compound (VOC)-emitting flooring choices available in the market today. They act as a passive air filter, trapping dust, pollen, and particles and keeping them away from the breathing zone. Studies have shown that people with asthma and allergy problems have seen fewer episodes after carpeting their interiors.

 

  • Carpet Softens Slips and Falls

Carpets soften fall for toddlers, older people and even pets. Carpet reduces the occurrence of slips and falls, and minimizes injuries.

  • Carpet Reduces Noise

Our homes are much more noisy than before, thanks to big screen TVs, speaker phones, computers, and music systems. Carpets absorb these sounds, making our lives easier. We can work, learn, and sleep better with noise reduction. Carpet also works as a sound barrier between floors and lessens sound transmission to rooms below.

  • Carpets are environment friendly

Good quality carpets and rugs last for many decades and even after their glory days, they can be reused to make new carpet or are recycled into a variety of products

Best way to clean carpet yourself is to first remove dust and food particles so you have a cleaner surface to work with. Use a vacuum cleaner on a high setting. If you don’t have a vacuum cleaner, hang your carpet up in the balcony or yard and beat at it with a carpet beater.
Wash the carpet or scrub out tough stains
Wondering how to wash carpets at home? Carpets with cotton or synthetic fibres can be washed easily at home. If your carpet is a non-washable type, do spot-cleaning with a sponge and dish soap.

A mixture of vinegar and baking soda is advised to do spot-cleaning, but first do a patch test.
