PausitoRoutine BuilderHow often should you deep clean your carpet?
Have your carpet deep cleaned every year, at the latest after 18 months. Vacuum it at least once a week.
Weekly vacuuming removes most loose dirt, but not what sits deep in the fibres. Deep cleaning with hot water extraction removes that trodden-in dirt. The Carpet and Rug Institute recommends it every 12 to 18 months.
- Vacuum the carpet thoroughly first
- Hire a carpet cleaner or book a professional
- Test the product on a hidden spot first
- Let the carpet dry completely and air the room
