Fluids

Immediately absorb the spilled fluid with a towel or paper. Do not twist the material used for absorption, push it with your full weight instead, and when it impregnates, replace it again. Repeat this process until the tucker does not become wet anymore. If you remove all moisture, then 95% of the stain can be removed without chemicals, and the removal of the residuary becomes easy. Already dried stains are hard, or even impossible to remove. Never scrub or scour the stain, the stain area!

  4. A carpet seems to be dry, might be still wet depending on the humidity level.
  5. If the wet carpet is not let to completely dry, although it looks like cleaner at first glance, it will result up in getting a spectacular contamination soon (applied detergents attract contaminations and the wet carpets work similar to a duster: it removes and absorbs dirt from the shoes.) If sand gets into the wet carpet, abrasion significantly speeds up.

Warm water cleaning

Machines

There are several warm-water carpet cleaner machines, but basically they are wheeled and container-shaped. They have a bucket (for detergent water), combined intubation tubes for spraying detergent solution and for the pump (vacuum) machine, with that they absorb the mixture of water, dirt and detergent from the carpet.

Benefits of warm-water cleaning

  1. Most cleaner entrepreneurs offer warm-water carpet cleaning service, thus it is easily available.
  2. Warm-water cleaning is the most suitable process to perform major cleaning on pinned carpets.
  3. Fibers of pinned carpets are usually thicker, they consist of twisted fibers. During drying, detergent used for dry cleaning does not reach the surface due to capillarity, but remain hidden inside the fiber, thus the optimal humidity level of the material is ensured.
  4. Proper performance of warm-water cleaning means that pinned carpets are well-cleaned, and its optical appearance, comfort significantly improves.

Comment *It is very important to let carpets enough time to dry (min. 12-24 hours), before using them again. This period depends on the fiber thickness, fiber type, density, temperature etc.

Generally we do not recommend wet carpet cleaning, because the cleaner may make the carpet too wet, thus water might get under the carpet, gluing might be damaged and even instability in size might occur.
For module carpets, we recommend only dry cleaning method.

In case of applying warm-water method, it always needs to be examined on a small area, whether the carpet discolors, or any other unwanted effects occur.

Wool carpets need to be cleaned with water only after several years.
