Cleaning Tips

Rug Doctor machines are designed to deep-clean and extract in one cleaning pass.

Your best choice for cleaning difficult spots or stains is to use Rug Doctor's specialty products:

Avoid over-wetting your carpet. Don't go over heavily soiled spots more than 2 times. If additional cleaning is desired, allow carpets to dry before attempting to re-clean heavily soiled areas. Slightly overlap each pass to ensure no dirty carpet is missed.

The machine will not clean going forwards.

 

Important:

  • When it is ON, hold down red button and keep machine moving so vibrating brush does not agitate in one place.
  • You should recover 1/2 tank of dirty water for each tank of clean water used depending on your carpet type.
  • To prevent stains, if replacing furniture before carpet is completely dry, place plastic or aluminium foil under furniture legs.
  • Open windows and doors, or turn on air conditioning, dehumidifier or fan heater for faster drying. Drying time is usually around two hours, dependent on weather and carpet thickness.
