How to Clean Delicate and Shag Rugs?

Stylish shag rugs covering beautiful hardwood floors have become more popular recently. Unlike your average carpet, shag area rugs have long nylon, polyester, cotton or wool fiber. How do I keep my beautiful area rug clean is a question we face daily, the answer is simple. Deep piled shag rugs can give a room that look you have been searching for however we need to ask ourselves if we are using the right equipment to clean our rug with.

The most effective way to remove dirt from your shag rugs is to use a vacuum cleaner power nozzle with a carpet height adjustment feature. Power nozzles that lack a height adjustment option can’t clean your carpets effectively because the roller will slow down and pull strands of your carpet damaging your rug. If your shag rug has an unusually thick pile a non-electric floor brush and carpet rake may be recommended. For the majority of shag rugs an electric power nozzle with carpet height adjustment feature will be the ideal cleaning equipment. Our German made Cleanpath powernozzle has a 5 level adjustment feature that is perfect for cleaning an array of different shag carpet piles. A power nozzle with an overload protection will insure that you do not damage your rug or vacuum. The overload protector will automatically shut off your power nozzle if too much resistance is being applied to the roller brush. Adjusting the level on your power nozzle until you no longer activate the overload protector insures us that we are now cleaning our rugs properly and not causing damage. If you have a shag rug you find difficult to keep clean send us an email or give us a call for an easy pain free solution.
