Why does the carpet smell after cleaning with chemicals?

The appearance of smelly carpet is related to the effect of water on the carpet or the constant use of watering in the carpets in the room that are not properly ventilated. The other possible causes include when the carpet stinks after washing and drying improperly, the infestation of bacteria and fungus which gets moldy in the carpet fabrics.  The suspectible root of the cause for the smelly carpet has been the fact that the carpets are made of natural materials that have not been treated with antiseptic agents or special treatment during manufacturing.

How many times a month should the carpet cleaning be done in a month?

How often should the carpet cleaning in domestic house be conducted during a month will depend on many factors such as:

 

How big is your family in the house.

 

For example 4 bedroom house that has 4 family members (two adults and two children), may require 3 times of cleaning carpets, especially if there are young children involved in play games in the living room which usually have the exposure of dirt and dust caused by these children. A young children aged as 3-7 year olds tends to play with food and toys that may affect dust and dirt on the carpet. Furthermore if there is dog pet in the house that walks on in a regular basis and plays with the carpet flooring, when coming from outdoors, the dog pets can leave some stains and parasites that infiltrate the carpet. This frequent contact in surfaces from house occupants can make the parasites and dusts become collected and residuals in the carpet. Therefore it is recommended to vacuum and steam clean carpets every 2 times a week up to 8 times a month, if the dog pet and children continue this similar pattern of playing around the carpeted room / area.

Home domestic carpet cleaning

If the family has busy lifestyle when there is lack of dedicated time to perform cleaning in a month, then a professional carpet servicing or vacuum carpet cleaner can be hired to clean on behalf of the family in monthly basis schedule.

 

If you are wearing shoes in your house:

 

Shoes are contaminated from diverse sources such as dirt from outdoors, stained water from beaches, etc. It is not good etiquette to have stained shoes inside the house so best leave on the near door or outside. Normally when the contaminated shoes are placed in the carpets, the dirt and stains can affect the carpet fibres due to presence of stain bacteria and parasites.

 

How often you walk on your carpet

 

Assuming if you walk on your carpet shoe-less, there is myth that walking barefoot will not make dirty surfaces, but that’s completely wrong. The human foot can harbor invisible parasites and bugs which can transfer seamlessly to carpet fibre when being walked on. Human foot can leave small dust too because of the airborne particles. Hence the carpeted floor shall be vacuumed and steamed every 2 weeks so 4 times a month.

 

What kind of cleaning solutions you are using to clean carpets

 

Different cleaning agents have differing effects on the carpet fibres. Some chemical agents can be not quite effective as most chemical solutions does not fully penetrate into fibrous and porous component of carpet surface, thus not entirely removing dust, stains and even parasites from carpet. It is suggested to combine the pressurised steam vapour at highest temperature with water cleaning solution to provide powerful hot extraction method to completely deep clean surfaces.

Difference between carpet steam cleaning and hot water extraction

Home carpet cleaning can use two different methods, namely steam cleaning and hot water extractions.

However there is an obvious slight difference between those two options of carpet cleaning. One being the temperature used in the cleaning process.

In order for the carpeted surfaces to be deep steam cleaned, the temperature must be very high to produce powerful steam vapour and that temperature must exceed 100 degrees Celsius to produce the so-called super heated steam.

Unlike steam vapour cleaning, hot water extraction simply utilise hot water at the temperature in which it does not reach the boiling point. It is like emitting pressurised water jet.

Deep steam carpet cleaning has many benefits

What is Deep Steam Carpet Cleaning?

With deep steam carpet cleaning, a steam vapour is produced at high temperature and applied to the fibrous surface of the carpeted flooring which allows deep penetration of steam that works best in reaching crevices and nooks. Due to low water content being only 5%, the drying of carpet is almost instant within just a few matter of minutes and leaving the carpet not entirely soaked because of the high temperature ensuring the vaporisation of the water molecules.
