Many
area rugs, such as fine oriental rugs, are very costly and are made
from fragile natural fibers, dyes, and foundation materials that cannot
be cleaned in the way we usually clean synthetic carpets (such as nylon,
olefin, and polyester).
Most professional carpet cleaning systems involve the use of high heat, high water pressure, extreme agitation, and intense chemical activity. Most area rugs cannot be cleaned using these tactics. A more gentle hand washing process must be used to safely clean area rugs.
Because more time is involved in hand washing and more complex cleaning products must be utilized to avoid damaging the fibers and dyes, you would expect that area rug cleaning would be more costly than standard carpet cleaning. It is.
Why area rugs are more difficult to clean...
Because of the dense pile construction of area rugs, dirt particles work their way down through the fibers to the backing foundation of the rug where they cannot be removed by ordinary vacuuming.
This loose grit wreaks havoc on your rug’s delicate fibers, causing a cutting, abrasive action as you walk on the rug. Abrasion accounts for fiber loss (wear) and embedded soil stains.
Other types of dirt including food particles and pet oils hide in the dense pile, making your rugs an ideal haven for germs, bacteria, and other nasty creatures such as dust mites!
