How to clean and care a carpet

     The best way to keep the carpet clean and well-preserved is to protect it from dirt. If you walk on a carpet barefooted it will be cleaner and more well-preserved than the one you walk when your shoes are on. A carpet, which is protected and used properly, can be used for 10-15 years without a professional cleaning. But if it is not protected from dirt, the life span of the carpet will become shorter. The cleaning must be done by professional cleaners only.

1- While cleaning you should use a vacuum cleaner, so you should never beat it.

2- You should prefer tools with brush and vacuum.

3- You should keep your carpet away from water and moisture. If your carpet is in a humid place it often needs airing.

4- You should use suggested quantity of cleaning stuff only. You should never apply chemicals such as vinegar an chlorinated water on the carpet.

5- You should have a professional carpet cleaner once six months.

6- Since the carpets are made of wool, they, naturally shed little woollen pieces. Once you sweep them frequently, they will get less and disappear by time.

7- You should sometimes change the places of heavy furniture and brush the traces on the carpet.

8- The fringes of the carpet mustn’t be folded underneath the carpet. If not, the fringes will get old and finally break in two. As a result, the carpet fill get torn down.

9- The carpet which you don’t lay on the floor mustn’t be folded. Instead, it must be rolled with moth balls, wrapped in a piece of cloth and stored in a dry place.
