When you want to do sth better do it green.  It's as true for cleaning as it is for building, driving your car and so on. It's eco.

Carpets are something that can not be changes frequently as it involves heavy and can not be afforded by everyone. So it is always necessary to take proper care of carpets. Taking proper care and maintaining your carpet clean will save you money from having to buy expensive cleaning products as well. These are really very useful tips. Great post.

Useful tips yes, but only if you have carpet..and I'm glad to say that I don't. The dust and the dirt etc make me  so I ripped them all up when I bought the place.
That comment hasn't put anything new into this thread but I though I'd say it anyway.

I guess it was just to brag a bit that you don't need to spend much time cleaning. Good for you. What do you have now tiles or parquet floor?

I had a caret, but a month ago I forgot to close the windows before going out to work. It was raining outside whole day and when i got home the carpet was wet. I was too tired to decide what to do with it. In the morning the carpet already had this wet old carpet smell. I was so angry that threw it in the trash. Now I clean at home faster and easier.

So, you say that the easiest way to clean a carpet is to throw it away. I'll have this in mind next time, when starting cleaning the hall.

Are you crazy? It is more expensive to buy a new carpet than to hire professional carpet cleaning service to clean it.

Yes it is, but why should you buy an expensive carpet and then pay extra money for cleaning. It costs you an arm and a leg. I have a carpet, but I clean it regularly, to avoid staining and damage.

You are right, but big carpets need special treatment once or twice a year.

I'm agree but can you tell the people like me, which don't know much for these powerful green products more about them

I think that if you clean you carpet regularly, you won't have any problems. You don't need to spend a lot of money, nor you need to buy a new one very often.

Agree 100%, I think alot of home owners dont really understand how much they are hurting then helping. Carpet cleaning is an art, and should be treated as such
