Keeping Your Rugs Fresh And Clean This Fall

Keeping Your Rugs Fresh And Clean This Fall

Fall is arriving quickly and summer is drawing to a close for the year. While many outdoor activities are over and done with for your family, fall brings about a feeling of tidying up your house and yard to prepare for the long winter. With this, tracking in dirt and outdoor stains is easy to do. Here are a few ways that you can help avert bringing dirt indoors and save your rug and carpeting from permanent stains.

Have Area Rugs Professionally Cleaned

Take a good look at your area and Oriental rugs. If you notice any type of odor or discoloration, it could be from the high traffic dirt being tracked in from your backyard or garden. Because you'll likely soon be tracking in more dirt due to fall yard cleanup and outdoor football play, it's important to protect your carpets. You can have your carpets professionally cleaned by ZEROREZ® using their Zr Clean™ technology formula. Not only does it lift deep-down stubborn stains, its green solution ingredients provide a protective barrier against future stains. A ZEROREZ® pro can also take your area and Oriental rugs to their washing plant and carefully clean and rejuvenate each piece. If you know you'll be having a lot of foot traffic due to a get together or outdoor fall gathering, replace your rug with inexpensive throw aways, this will help improve carpet longevity.

Use A Green Carpet Cleaning Solution

During the fall months, it may seem like you are cleaning up after pets and kids on a daily basis. Even small amounts of dirt can easily penetrate carpet fibers on your rug fibers and lead to staining. Spot cleaning in between professional cleanings with the ZEROREZ® Primacide B-Fluid, allows you to keep your carpet and rug in pristine condition year round. Reminding kids and guests to remove shoes and dirty clothing before entering carpeted areas is another way to get a grip on invading dirt.

Protect Floors With A Rug Pad

Using a rug pad underneath your area and Oriental rug helps protect your floors and keeps rug fibers from getting crushed. ZEROREZ® offers a premium rug pad that resists staining and saturation. This helps make cleanup easier should you have a major spill. A rug pad will also allow for adequate air flow to help resist the chance of mold and mildew forming.

Clean Up The Air

You may wonder what having clean air in your home has to do with clean carpeting and rugs. During the summer when windows and doors are open more often, pollen and other airborne debris make their way into your carpeting and furniture. When you turn on your furnace in the fall, dust and dirt blows through the vents and back on to your carpeting. Having your air ducts professionally cleaned by a ZEROREZ® technician will help remove old dirt and help improve the appearance of your carpeting and area rugs.

Keeping your carpeting looking clean and smelling fresh starts by eliminating as much dirt as possible. Let the professionals at ZEROREZ® come up with a solution that fits the needs of your Suwanee home.
