RUG CLEANING - BEST DRYING TECHNIQ
« on: November 29, 2012, 11:19:58 pm »
HI

I usuallly take these away to clean as the time they take to dry seems an age. even when using hand tool i find they bleed a bit of water for a bit.

is this down to type of machine used or is there a best practice technique?

do you guys clean in situ and if so how long do you find they take to clean ?

 ???

Mark,
They shouldn't bleed water unless you emmersion cleaning them.
How are you cleaning them?
What machine are you using.
If you've a got a blower you can use one of these to dry rugs quickly

The best way in the winter is to make a drying room/ chamber containing a dehumidifer, heat source and an air mover/fan.
Mine is my cellar at present , I dried 6 rugs overnight last night .
I clean carpets
I dry Buildings

Buy yourself one of these

It speeds up the drying of rugs a lot and only costs £24.50
