CARPET CLEANING TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
›
Treating difficult spots: Rug Doctor Machines are designed to deep clean and extract in one cleaning
pass. Your best choice for cleaning difficult spots, stains or traffic areas is to use Rug Doctor's specialty
products.
›
Avoid over-wetting your carpet. DO NOT go over a heavily soiled spot more than 2 times. Berber, Multi-
Level or Looped carpets retain more liquid. For these types of carpets, DO NOT repeat cleaning passes.
›
If additional cleaning is desired, allow carpets to dry before attempting to reclean heavily soiled areas.
Because they retain more liquid, Berber carpets that are overwet can experience "wick up" of soils or
spills very deeply embedded in the carpet or backing. If you experience this problem, allow area to dry
completely then clean again using single, quick passes (1-2 feet per second).
›
Cleaning Berber carpet: You can use your Rug Doctor machine to clean Berber carpet. For best results,
make only one pass while depressing the thumb switch to release solution. Make a second pass over the
same area without pressing the switch so that you are only vacuuming the liquid.
›
Overlap passes slightly to cover all areas. IMPORTANT: When pressing the red button, keep machine
moving so rotating brush does not agitate in one place.
›
Liquid recovery. You should recover 70 - 80% of the liquid used depending on your carpet type. With
Berber carpet, you may recover a little less liquid.
›
If you replace furniture before the carpet is completely dry, place aluminum foil under furniture legs to
prevent stains. Leave aluminum foil under furniture legs until carpet is completely dry.
›
Avoid excessive foam in the recovery tank, which can be expelled through the machine and may affect
your carpet. If foaming occurs, turn off the machine and empty the upper white tank if it is full.
›
For faster drying, ventilate area. Open doors and windows. Place fans pointed downward on carpet.
Turn on heat in damp or cold weather. Turn on air conditioner in humid or hot weather. This is highly
recommended when cleaning Berber carpets. These procedures are especially recommended when
cleaning Berber carpets.
