In this blog entry, the professional NJ carpet cleaning service experts here at Aladdin Oriental Rug will detail the best ways to protect your carpet after it is professionally cleaned.
Allow Carpet to Dry
Make sure the carpet fully dries after it is cleaned. Post cleaning drying can take 6-12 hours based on the temperature and humidity of the room. Help the drying process using a dehumidifier or fan or turning on the air conditioning to remove moisture from the air. Don’t replace furniture or walk on the carpet until it’s dry.
Avoid Foot Traffic
Try to avoid foot traffic – and especially heavy foot traffic – on the carpet for a few days. This can prevent dirt and debris from getting embedded into your carpet.
Regular Vacuuming
We recommend regularly vacuuming your carpet once a week, and more often in high traffic areas. Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter to remove allergens and other particulates from your carpet.
Immediately Clean Spills
Blot spills with a paper towel or clean cloth as soon as possible to soak them up. Then use a carpet cleaner designed for the type of spill to clean the area. When you quickly clean spills, it can prevent the carpet from rapidly or gradually accumulating stains.
Carpet Protectors
Carpet protectors can help protect your carpet to prevent stains or prevent stains from penetrating the carpet, and protect it from a range of stains, spills, or physical damage. They can repel dust, dirt, and other liquid and give you time to rapidly clean spills before they move deeper into carpet fibers and cause stains.
