Wool Carpet Care Tips for Chem-Dry of Madison

One important part of carpet maintenance is addressing spots and spills. When something is dropped or spilled, it can help to respond promptly and keep basic cleaning materials available. Chem-Dry of Madison uses professional cleaning products selected for the carpet type and condition.

Vacuum Wool Carpet Regularly

• An upright vacuum with a beater bar or brush may be appropriate for some cut pile carpets. A suction-only vacuum may be recommended for some loop pile or Berber carpets to help reduce fuzzing. Empty vacuum cleaner dust bags or canisters according to the manufacturer’s directions.
• Use absorbent mats at frequently used entrances to help reduce tracked-in dirt. Clean or replace mats when they become dirty. Filters in your heating and air conditioning systems should be changed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Periodically clean traffic lanes and areas in front of frequently used chairs.
• Keep absorbent cloths, paper towels, and carpet-appropriate cleaning solutions on hand so you can respond to spills when they happen.
• Before applying stain-repellent treatments, review your carpet manufacturer’s care instructions. When having your wool carpet professionally cleaned by Chem-Dry of Madison, ask about available wool carpet cleaning options.
