How to Maintain Your Carpet
ROUTINE VACUUMING
The most important maintenance procedure is the removal of dry soil by vacuuming. Appropriate vacuuming is several slow passes back and forth in the same direction, alternating direction every couple of passes. For best results, change vacuum bags before they become two-thirds full. Do not let your carpet become heavily soiled before vacuuming. A routine vacuuming is highly recommended as to keep soil loads to a minimum, higher traffic areas may require vacuuming 2-3 times weekly.
SPOT CLEANING
Spills and spots must be attended to immediately. Spills that are allowed to dry are much more difficult to remove. When cleaning a spot always work from the edge toward the center of the spot and always blot, never scrub, as it may spread the spot or distort the fibers.
