Practical methods and techniques for cleaning and maintaining carpets in hotels in Jinan

The cleaning and maintenance of carpets in hotels in Jinan are important for maintaining the beauty and hygiene of the hotel. Here are some practical methods and techniques:

Vacuum cleaner

Regularly using a powerful vacuum cleaner to thoroughly clean carpets is a basic and important daily cleaning step. It should be ensured that the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is strong enough to remove dust, hair, and debris from the surface and deep layers of the carpet. For areas with high foot traffic, such as lobbies and corridors, vacuum once a day; The carpet in the guest room can be vacuumed every 1-2 days according to occupancy.

Local stain treatment

When small areas of stains are found on the carpet, they should be dealt with promptly. For liquid stains, such as beverages, first use a clean towel or tissue to absorb the liquid and try to remove excess parts to avoid the spread of stains. Then use specialized carpet cleaner, dilute according to the instructions, dip a clean white cloth or sponge in the cleaner, and gently wipe from the edge to the center of the stain. For oily stains, a small amount of organic solvent can be used (safety and suitability for carpet materials should be considered) for treatment.

2、 Regular deep cleaning

Steam cleaning

Every once in a while (usually 1-3 months, depending on the usage of the carpet), use a steam cleaner to thoroughly clean the carpet. Steam cleaning can effectively remove dirt, bacteria, and mites from deep layers of carpets. When operating, follow the instructions for using the steam cleaner and move it slowly and evenly to ensure that every part of the carpet is thoroughly cleaned. After cleaning, let the carpet dry naturally and avoid using it in a damp state to prevent mold growth.

Dry foam cleaning

Use a vacuum cleaner to remove foam and dirt.

Rotating usage

If conditions permit, carpets in different areas of the hotel can be rotated regularly for use. This can give the carpet enough time to recover after a period of use, reduce the damage of long-term pressure to the carpet, and extend the service life of the carpet.

Set up protective measures
