EC Carpet Wool Vacuum

Do you need a special vacuum cleaner for an EC Carpet wool pile?

Protecting your investment

EC Carpets advise, Carpet is an important design and decorative element. Its colour, pattern and texture contribute to an overall atmosphere and visual effect that can dramatically influence the image of private and commercial premises. It offers many functional benefits, but above all it is cost effective. A carefully planned and executed maintenance program will help protect the aesthetic and functional value of your carpet. Such a program should be considered at the time of carpet selection and finalised at the latest before installation.

EC Carpet Care Recommendations

A good quality vacuum cleaner with strong suction and a revolving brush usually yields the best results. Seek the advice of the vacuum cleaner store or manufacturer to select a vacuum cleaner with the right revolving brush. A brush too soft will achieve little in effective cleaning while one too stiff will cause damage to the carpet. The use of a quality vacuum cleaner with an adjustable revolving brush set according to pile height is strongly recommended. Please test head/brush adjustment in an inconspicuous area of the carpet. Use a vacuum cleaner with a good efficient filtering system, such as HEPA grade filtration, to prevent the redistribution of fine particles.

For effective vacuuming follow these guidelines.

1. Select professional equipment that is suited to your installation and volume of traffic.

2. Vacuum slowly and thoroughly making three to five passes over an area.

3. Empty vacuum bags frequently. For example, a bag 2/3 full reduces the vacuum efficiency by up to 50%.

4. Keep all equipment clean and ensure all parts are in good working order. Ensure that the floor tool is repaired or replaced should it become burred so as not to damage any loop pile carpeting.

Absorbent Powder Cleaning

This detergent impregnated powder is sprinkled onto the pile and brushed into the carpet. The detergent component of the mixture releases greasy soils from the surface of the fibres and the residual is vacuumed away. The advantage of absorbent powder cleaning is that the carpet remains dry and can be walked on immediately afterwards. This process can be performed by in-house staff or outside professional cleaners.
