Vacuuming is the most important thing you can do to keep your carpet looking great. Carpets should be vacuumed frequently and thoroughly, especially in high traffic areas. Vacuuming helps remove dirt particles which dull the carpet’s appearance and damage the fibers. It is essential that you use a vacuum cleaner that really deep cleans a carpet. It should have a strong motor, powerful airflow, efficient filtration, an internal vacuum bag, and a brush roll for agitation. Brushing action loosens dirt. The brush roll should be adjusted for proper height, and never let the bag become more than a quarter full. Vacuum high traffic areas several times a week and low traffic areas at least once a week. Thorough vacuuming will help you maintain the appearance of your carpet and postpone the need for professional cleaning.
