I shampoo the entire carpet several (3) times per year. Spots and stains get done as they happen.
Since the Kirby doesn't remove the soap from the rug, I use the Kirby first (with Persil for the shampoo) as a 'scrubber'. Then, ALWAYS, the Hoover Spin Scrub with clean water and a little bit of Downey fabric softener, to rinse all the soap out. The rugs smell great, and are soft and clean. And no static electricity. For spots and stains, like spilled tea, the Kirby would use useless. A Bissell Spot Pro does the trick for those instances, but my Rainbow and a glass of water would do the same thing. |

At home, we have it cleaned about every other year. We hire a professional truck mount steamer to clean the carpets and we would only hire companies like Stanley Steemers that complete background checks and drug screens. Sometimes we would use a Bissell spot and stain removal if we happen to see any spots on the carpet.
Most apartments in college where I'm currently at now does theirs about every 4 months or right when a semester is just about over. Some I see use portable commercial extractors and some I see use truck mount steamers. |
