Carpets are an important and expensive investment that require daily maintenance. A daily carpet care program will protect and extend the life of the carpet, enhance appearance, and improve indoor air quality.

It is important to inspect equipment and pick up debris before vacuuming. You should never vacuum carpet that is wet.

Use the vacuum's wand and hose attachment along with a round dusting brush to clean air vents and ducts.

Make sure to vacuum entry mats every day. This helps to prevent dirt and debris from entering the building.

For large carpeted areas with extensive spots, use a powered spot extractor. This is also effective for daytime spill clean up when buildings are occupied.

Oxy Citrus and Just Right Carpet Spotter are neutral pH, general purpose spotters that will remove most common spots and spills. Harsh products such as bleach will damage and discolor carpet.

Working the spot towards the center with a carpet spotting brush will prevent the spot from spreading. Do not oversaturate the area. You may need to repeat the process multiple times to fully remove the stain.

Work several spots at a time. Let the chemical dwell for at least 2 minutes to penetrate and loosen soil, but do not let it dry.

When the towel or bonnet becomes visibly soiled, turn it over and use the other side. After both sides are soiled, replace with a fresh towel or bonnet.

Spot extractors are quick and effective tools for cleaning carpets, upholstery, and fabric surfaces.
