Area rugs can accumulate a lot of dirt with time due to kids spilling food and drinks on them, pet hair, and people walking on them with dirty shoes. Homeowners can opt to clean their area rugs on their own, but perhaps the better option for them is to hire area rug cleaning companies. How do these companies clean very dirty area rugs?
According to the video, the first step is for a specialist to check the type of rug and its issues. Different rugs have varying textures and aren't cleaned the same way.
The second step is spinning the rug to remove dust. Next, the rug is pre-treated to loosen up any oils, soils, and stains. The fourth step is pressure washing the rug on both sides to push out the dirt. In the fifth step, the specialist cleaning the rug uses a squeegee to remove the dirty water. In the sixth step, the specialist can use a rotary machine or hand scrubbers to massage deodorizers and shampoos inside the rug. Seventh, the carpet is rinsed a couple of times, and the water squeegeed off. Lastly, the carpet is placed inside a centrifuge machine. This machine turns quickly to remove up to 95% of the moisture from the rug.
