Carpet cleaners Auckland –\u00a0What are some of the mistakes contributing to these negative impacts? One of the most critical carpet problems is a lack of proper vacuuming. This oversight can prove especially detrimental when it comes to dry soil removal, since this matter accounts for up to 90 percent of the soil found in carpeting. Dry soil can easily be removed by vacuuming. Skipping this step will only create more work for janitors.<\/p>\n

Water on the carpet<\/h3>\n

Once you use water on the carpet, any remaining dry soil becomes mud and is harder to remove. Additionally, it can potentially build up in the carpet if not fully removed. Companies that skip this step, or clients that reduce the vacuuming schedule, can expect that the carpet won\u2019t stay as clean as a properly maintained carpet.<\/p>\n

Giving vacuuming short shrift won\u2019t make the building service contractor shine either.<\/p>\n

When vacuuming isn\u2019t done properly, the synthetic fibers can be scratched and abraded, permanently damaging the carpet\u2019s appearance. This can\u2019t be fixed and makes it look as if the technician is doing a poor job.<\/p>\n

Too much soap<\/h3>\n

The problems don\u2019t stop with dry soil removal. There are plenty of other mistakes to be made during more intensive cleaning. One common problem is a janitor using too much soap and not rinsing enough.<\/p>\n

This can impact the carpeting by constantly attracting soil to the soap residue left in the carpet, which may cause it to look dull. These mistakes can be costly. If a carpet is improperly cleaned it can void the warranty and the contractor may have to replace it.<\/p>\n

Overuse of wet-cleaning, deep-extraction processes<\/h3>\n

The overuse of wet-cleaning, deep-extraction processes can lead to trouble. When done too often, the carpet\u2019s backing can be negatively affected, since the excessive moisture can impact the adhesive on some carpets, causing it to de-laminate. Too much moisture can also lead to mold and mildew in the surrounding environment. Additionally, overly wet carpet may result in slips and falls.<\/p>\n

Instead of always extracting carpets, low-moisture processes can effectively clean carpets. But these shouldn\u2019t be overused either.<\/p>\n

Encapsulation<\/h3>\n

One low-moisture process is encapsulation, which uses a specific kind of detergent to clean. Encapsulation is primarily deployed as an interim cleaning method. One positive is that this process requires very little water compared to typical hot-water extraction methods.<\/p>\n

Basically, the detergent encloses the soil in a brittle crystal as the carpeting dries. It can take up to 24 hours after the process starts to fully attract and crystallize the dirt, although less time may be required. Once the carpeting dries, vacuuming removes these crystals, taking the soil and dirt with it.<\/p>\n

But several factors can undermine the results. One of these, is waiting too long to do the process, trying to clean carpeting that is overly soiled. Not thoroughly vacuuming and removing as much dry soil as possible before beginning encapsulation is another issue.<\/p>\n

Encapsulation can\u2019t dissolve sand and dry soil. You want to get the dry stuff out as much as possible, because you want to focus the chemical\u2019s energy on the sticky stuff it can dissolve.<\/p>\n

And…<\/h3>\n

Another mistake is using encapsulation on the wrong kind of soils. For example, this process may not prove as effective on carpeting typically found in restaurants, movie theaters or factories where there tends to be high levels of greasy soils.<\/p>\n

Thoroughly vacuuming after encapsulation is important. The objective is to remove the dried crystals before they have contact with any moisture, which could cause them to lose their efficacy.<\/p>\n

Equipment<\/h3>\n

Equipment plays an integral role in the success or failure of the encapsulation process. It\u2019s most effective to use a pile-lift vacuum on the traffic lanes before and after encapsulation.\u00a0Many companies don\u2019t always have the correct equipment to remove the dry compounds, which can leave residual crystals behind. This can cause some minor damage to the fibers if not fully removed over time.<\/p>\n
