Air Conditioning Repairs – Why Is It Essential?

Oriental Rug

Vacuum Regularly

Regularly vacuuming your rug is essential to remove all the abrasive grit and soil which wears the wool and silk fibers down. Use a beater bar vacuum, on both sides of the rug. Vacuum in the direction of the pile and be very careful near fringes.

Rotate Your Rug

A rug will always appear brighter when laid with the pile directed away from you. However, if it is not rotated, it will begin to wear quicker in the areas where it receives more foot traffic. Uneven wear affects its beauty and devalues it.

Uneven sun fading will also affect a rug that is not rotated. Chemically washed carpets especially, such as Chinese super-wash carpets, will fade over time when exposed to sunlight. Rotating the rug will ensure that this fading is even, making it less noticeable.

Use Good Quality Rug Padding/Underlay

Good quality rug padding provides cushioning when the rug is walked on which decreases the pressure of the Professional Rug Washing being pressed against the floor. This results in less wear and tear, increasing the life of your rug. Rug underlay also holds the rug into place meaning there is less stress on the foundation when the rug is walked on and lessens the chance of a slip accident.

Protect The Wool And Silk Pile

Having a protector treatment professionally applied after cleaning will prevent spillages from being absorbed into the pile which can cause staining. Protector treatments are fluoro-chemical based and do not alter the look or feel of your rug in any way.

Don’t Panic If A Spillage Occurs

If something is spilled on your rug do not panic. Slowly blot up the spillage with an absorbent kitchen towel. Do not rub as this can permanently damage the wool or silk fibers. Do not use over-the-counter stain removers as these are often oxidizers that can permanently damage natural wool and silk by causing bleaching.

Professional Rug Washing And Dusting Your rugs will require regular professional washing and dusting at least once every 18 months. This must be done using the immersion wash system which is the safest and most thorough rug cleaning method recommended by rug care professionals and appraisers throughout the world.
