Carpet-cleaning professionals say that the most effective method of keeping carpeting clean \u2014 and making it last a long time \u2014 is to vacuum it regularly.<\/p>\n
In fact, they recommend vacuuming three or more times per week, and daily in high-traffic areas.<\/p>\n
They also point out that the quality of your vacuum makes a difference. An upright vac does the best job of removing deep-down dirt, but a big canister vac with a beater-bar head is good, too.<\/p>\n
Whichever you prefer, the motor must be powerful enough to create enough suction to remove the dirt, sand, and debris that is ground into the carpet.<\/p>\n
If the vac has a beater bar, its brushes should be free of lint, fuzz, and threads. The suction port and hose should be checked regularly for suction-robbing blockages, and the bag should be changed frequently to ease the flow of air through the vac.<\/p>\n
Aside from regular vacuuming, the best way to keep your carpet clean and reduce wear is to steam clean it at least twice a year, and place welcome mats outside every exterior door, and rugs on the inside to catch any leftover grit before it gets farther into the house.<\/p>\n
Finally, it really pays to have everyone remove their shoes when they come into the house.<\/p>\n
