Vacuuming alone simply cannot get all the dust and embedded dirt out of your carpet. The grit and grime of tracked-in soil gets pushed deeper and deeper into your carpet, damaging the pile and dulling the shine of the fibres. Research has proven that deep washing carpets leaves them significantly cleaner than dry vacuuming alone.
Using a carpet washer periodically is also an effective means of ridding your floor covering of dust mite residue and other allergens, like animal dander.
To ensure a thorough washing, you have two options: hire a professional carpet cleaner or deep clean the carpet yourself.
If you choose the former, ask for an in-home estimate, and also inquire as to any certifications held by the cleaner. Professional cleaners have the advantage of using heavy-duty, industrial-strength, commercial cleaning equipment, and should have the expertise to address a wide range of carpet cleaning issues.
However, if you prefer to undertake the project yourself, and owning your own carpet washer is an affordable, storable option, there is a variety of good quality, effective machines available for purchase, including the models listed below:
- Vax's Multi-Function cleaners have the capability to both wash and dry vacuum carpets. The six multi-function models feature the patented Fibreflow® Washing System. The cleaning action of a Vax machine circulates a mix of warm water and cleaning solution through the carpet pile without actually wetting the backing. Embedded dirt is loosed and sucked back up into the machine, leaving a much cleaner, brighter carpet.
- Vax Rapide series includes five upright single purpose machines specifically designed for washing carpets. (Advanced Rapide models include attachments for specialist cleaning tasks, such as upholstery.)
- Bissell Powerwash forces warm cleaning solution into the carpet, while brushes groom the fibres. Its innovative ‘tank-in-tank' system provides for separate dirty and clean water receptacles.
- Bissell's Protech Carpet Cleaner features a built-in heater to raise the temperature 25 degrees above hot water – maximizing the cleaning performance. The cleaner also features a Perfect Pass System, which controls cleaning speed for optimum effectiveness.
- Hoover's Brush 'N' Wash F5857 is both a hard surface and carpet and upholstery deep cleaner, and dry vacuum cleaner in one. It has 5 variable speed rotating b rushes to agitate the carpet fibres, and to scrub tile and vinyl flooring. An attachment will "wet clean," picking up everything from spills to floods.
Nothing beats the convenience of having your own carpet washer waiting in the utility cupboard when its time to spring into cleaning, or to have within immediate reach to clean up after the unexpected, but inevitable, spills and spots of daily life!
