Area rugs from the Olympia Collection are not just exquisite additions to your home decor but also investments in luxury and comfort. To ensure these rugs retain their beauty and charm, proper cleaning and maintenance are essential. Here’s a guide on how to keep your Olympia Collection area rugs clean and looking their best.
Regular Vacuuming is Key
Regular vacuuming is the cornerstone of maintaining clean area rugs. Use a vacuum cleaner with adjustable height settings to prevent excessive pulling on the rug fibers. Vacuum in the direction of the pile to remove dirt, dust, and debris effectively. Aim for weekly vacuuming in low-traffic areas and more frequently in high-traffic zones.
Mindful Spill Management
Accidents happen, and when they do, quick action is crucial. If a spill occurs, gently soak up the area with a clean, paper towel or white cloth to absorb the liquid as much as possible. Rubbing the spill could push the deeper into the fibers so avoid the action. Use a mild detergent mixed with water to clean the affected area, working from the edges toward the center. Blot dry and ensure the rug is completely dry to prevent mold growth.
Professional Cleaning
While regular maintenance goes a long way, professional cleaning is recommended every 12-18 months, depending on foot traffic and usage. Professional cleaners have the expertise to deep-clean your Olympia Collection area rugs without causing damage. This helps to remove deeply embedded dirt, allergens, and stains and restores the rug’s vibrant colors and textures.
