Never Let a Carpet Cleaner Clean Your Rugs the Same as Your Carpet
In this educational video, Bill Corridan explains why area rugs should not be cleaned in the same manner as wall-to-wall carpet.
Although rugs and carpet may appear similar from the surface, they are actually constructed very differently. Most carpeting uses a synthetic backing system, while many area rugs are made with tightly woven natural fibers and specialized construction methods.
Some carpet cleaners may unknowingly use cleaning methods that are not appropriate for fine rugs. Improper cleaning can potentially contribute to fiber distortion, dye issues, texture problems, or long-term wear.
In this 4-minute video, you’ll learn why proper rug-specific cleaning methods are important for protecting valuable area rugs.

Area rugs often require specialized cleaning methods. Fiber type, dye stability, construction style, foundation materials, and rug condition all influence how a rug should be safely cleaned.
