To ensure that your carpet is maintained well, you need to take care when vacuuming. Not only does proper vacuuming ensure that you have a clean environment to live in, but it also provides benefits for your health and helps protect you from illness that may result from having a worn out and dirtied carpet. This applies especially for the holiday seasons, because you will most likely be having guests so be sure that your carpet is kept in top condition! Whatever it is – cleaning your home is just as important as decorating it!
Take a look around
Before you start vacuuming, make sure that you pick up any objects that could clog up your vacuum cleaner, or items that hay haven fallen on the carpet accidentally such as keys or chains.
Check the vacuum bag properly
Make sure that the bag isn’t already full and ready to go. If the bag is full, there will be limited space for the suction and the process will be less effective and more time consuming.
Make sure that you don’t miss any spots
It is a good idea to overlap your strokes so that you don’t miss any area of carpet and get all the dirt off the ground. 2-3 overlaps are recommended.
Always vacuum forwards
It may seem pretty obvious, but in a small moment of being absent minded you could easily trip over the cord, move backwards into furniture or fragile material or cause other accidents. This applies for when vacuuming smaller rooms with a large number of objects.
