Carpet Selection
In
selecting your color, take the time to look at large samples in your home,
both by daylight and lamplight in the evening. The color you choose will
look different under different lighting conditions. Light
colored carpets will show more soil and require more maintenance than dark
colors. Darker colors of carpeting are more effective in high traffic
areas. Multi-colors and patterned carpets are especially effective in
hiding soil. The
performance and quality of a carpet is directly related to the amount and
quality of fiber that goes into the pile. The better the fiber and the
denser it is packed, the better the carpet will perform. Thin, less dense
carpet will lose its surface appearance faster. It is best to buy the
highest quality you can afford. Spot
Removal Treatment
of the affected area should begin immediately upon discovery. The more
time that elapses before treatment, the more difficult a stain will be to
remove. For best results, use Mohawk
FloorCare Essentials Carpet Cleaner. First
gently scrape food spill away from carpet, removing as much as possible.
For
any stain removal, it is important to use clean cloth for cleanup.
Most
dirt, and even dust, takes the form of hard particles. When left in the
carpet these gritty, sharp particles abrade the pile of the carpet.
Regular vacuuming not only prolongs the life of the carpet, but will
enhance its appearance as well. Most soiling in carpet is of the dry,
particle type which can be removed with a vacuum cleaner. Vacuum
high traffic lanes daily, medium to high traffic areas twice weekly, and
the entire house at least once a week. Use
a vacuum with a rotating brush or beater bar. Change the bags often and
check the beater bars for burs and gouges so as not to damage the surface
of the carpet. Some thick loop pile carpets will fuzz if a rotating brush
vacuum is used. In this case we recommend a suction vacuum only. Mohawk
Carpet Preventative Maintenance The
use of mats or runners at all home entrances and on uncarpeted areas
adjacent to carpet will reduce soil and moisture in traffic areas. Clean
mats and any other rugs placed over carpet regularly. The
use of furniture coasters to distribute the weight of heavy items is also
recommended, especially for furniture with wheels. Take care when moving
furniture with wheels by putting a protective barrier between the wheels
and the carpet. To
extend the beauty of your carpeting, close drapes or blinds during hours
of direct sunlight. Exercise
extreme caution with all bleaches, tile cleaners, mildew removers, oven
cleaners, drain openers and plant food. They are strong chemicals that can
permanently discolor or dissolve carpet fibers. Mohawk
Carpet Cleaning Recommendations Even
with regular vacuuming, soil particles and oily dirt will cling to the
carpet fibers. With foot traffic these particles and oily dirt are driven
deep into the carpet. We recommend professional hot water extraction every
18 to 24 months. Periodic cleaning, using the hot water extraction method
performed by a professional cleaner, will refresh carpet appearance. The
most used areas, such as entrances, doorways, traffic lanes, and in front
of chairs will collect dirt faster than other areas. Clean these areas as
they begin to show soil. This will stop dirt from spreading, and will
extend the time between professional cleaning.
